This 5 day painting & decorating course has been recognised by City & Guilds as a comprehensive introduction to painting & decorating so upon successful completion of this course you will receive an Able Skills certificate assured by City & Guilds to confirm the skills that you will have learned.
This course covers a variety of tasks and you will learn how to:
Prepare areas before painting including repairing imperfections
Apply water and oil based products using brushes and rollers
Learn how to cut around obstructions, openings and fittings and
Learn how to properly cut, paste and hang wallpaper.
In addition, we will cover aspects of working safely as well as explain and demonstrate the required tools of the trade and give plenty of ‘painters tips’ along the way.

This is a practical course, entirely hands on, working on a variety of areas such as walls and ceilings, skirting boards and window frames. You will have guidance from instructors who will provide demonstrations to ensure your understanding of the task in hand.
