Renovations, heritage and volumes

The importance of surface preparation
Surface preparation is a crucial step for an aesthetic and durable result. Filling cracks and carefully sanding surfaces often account for half of the total work time. A poorly prepared surface will make imperfections stand out after the paint is applied.
Make sure to clean your walls of all dust and protect your floors and woodwork with suitable masking tape. Careful preparation not only guarantees better adhesion of the new paint layers but also helps to avoid costly touch-ups later on.
Precautions for older buildings
If you are renovating an older building in Uzwil, special attention is required. Indeed, old paints can sometimes contain lead, a metal that is dangerous to health when inhaled in the form of dust.
Before starting any sanding, it is highly recommended to have your old coatings analyzed by a professional. If the presence of lead is confirmed, strict safety measures must be followed during stripping to protect occupants.
Caution helps ensure a healthy environment after your interior renovation.
Optimizing labor costs
Optimizing your painting work can allow you to make significant savings. An effective trick is to paint ceilings and walls simultaneously rather than at separate times.
This approach significantly reduces furniture protection costs and set-up time for equipment such as ladders and scaffolding. By planning your renovation work holistically, you gain logistical efficiency.
Remember that hiring local professionals for bundled work often allows you to negotiate more advantageous rates for the entire project.

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to paint a room?
The time depends on the condition of the walls. For a standard room, count one to two days including protection, surface preparation, and the two necessary finishing coats. Thorough preparation remains the key to an impeccable result.
Do I need to report my work to the authorities?
Generally, interior painting work does not require any official authorization in the canton of St. Gallen, as long as you do not change the structure or the purpose of the use of the rooms. Check with your landlord if you are a tenant.
How to avoid roller marks?
To avoid marks, use quality paint and do not overload your roller. Apply the paint by crossing passes and always finish with a uniform vertical movement. Working in sections without letting the edges dry is essential.
What grants are available in Uzwil?
There are no specific grants for simple interior painting. However, if your work is part of a comprehensive energy renovation, check the energy efficiency programs in force in the canton of St. Gallen for potential financial support.
