Getting the house painted

    Hey fellow South Dubliners:
    I was just out there cleaning windows and realised that the outside of my house is an absolute disaster of peeling paint, flaking varnish and grubby, dusty pebbledash etc etc - awful.

    Time was when I would have tackled the painting myself but it's a huge job, you have to do the sandpapering first, priming, all that, etc.

    Now that I look, the interior is pretty shabby too.

    Does any one know of a good painter (Obviously, when this lockdown business is over) (rolls eyes)

    and most importantly, any idea how much it would cost?

    Three bedroom semi with extension, that kind of thing, not a million miles from Stillorgan, not a council house.

    We used https://brianflanaganltd.com/ for a small commercial job. Excellent quality and the price was in line with other quotes received. No connection, but a happy customer.

    Call into Stillorgan Decor, tell them you are getting the paint there and ask for a few recommended decorators. Cheapest isnt always best and neither is dearest!
