Painting homes in Mayo
Mayo's Atlantic weather is hard on paintwork. Salt air around Westport, Achill, Belmullet and Killala Bay, plus constant rain and wind, means exterior walls, fascias and windows often need repainting sooner than inland homes. Inside, older stone farmhouses and cottages can suffer from damp that should be sorted before decorating. Painters in Castlebar, Ballina, Claremorris and Ballinrobe also handle plenty of new-build and rental refreshes. When posting a task, list the rooms or surfaces, rough sizes, current condition, any damp or flaking, whether you will supply paint, and if outside work needs scaffolding or ladders.
