Diy Painting Or Engage Painter

[GusRUH 1]

Hi members,

I have not painted my 5 rooms flat at Woodlands eversince my contractor did it during renovation in 1996. I was thinking of painting my whole house this year but unable to decide whether to DIY or engage a contractor. I am 45 years old and don't know whether I still have the energy for such job. I was skeptical on engaging a painter as I had seen my neighbour house painted by them and leaving lots of messed.

Anyone here with experience painting a 5 rooms flat could give me a tips and advice for me. Thank you.

I just painted my own house. It is tiring work, esp the ceiling.

If you're unsure whether your fitness can take it, can try out one room by urself first

Also better to have someone whom has experience in painting, to be your guide.

possibel to paint urself, but do prepare for a long journey. try to divide the place up, do one room at a time, and should be able to coplete at least 1 room over the weekend. i have done mine myself, ok but yes, i am 25 only
