Surface Preparation

Pro Painter Melbourne / Surface Preparation

Surface preparation.
The foundation of the finish.

A professional paint result begins before colour is applied. We assess existing coatings, imperfections and surface condition to define a sound starting point for interior or exterior painting.

A careful approach

Details that make the difference.

Understand the surface

The material, existing coating and condition guide preparation, so each wall, trim or exterior surface receives an appropriate approach.

Address imperfections

Preparation may include cleaning, filling, sanding or removing loose paint to create a suitable base for the next coating.

Prime where appropriate

Bare materials, repairs and existing finishes have different priming needs. We select preparation suited to the coating system.

Helpful answers

Planning your project.

Why does preparation matter?

Paint follows the surface underneath. Dirt, loose coatings and uneven repairs can affect both appearance and adhesion. Suitable preparation is essential to a well-finished result.

Is preparation included in the quote?

The quote should explain the preparation allowed for and the areas covered. Any additional conditions discovered during work are discussed before further work is agreed.
