How does a painter become a Master Painter?


In America the painters are not generally classified as professional. Why? Because of the promoted ‘do it yourself’ movement has said anyone can paint. For true quality work that is simply not true. If it were true it should then be applied to all the trades. If one wants just a ‘coloring’ job when painting, then you should hire a colorist. A professional painter is simply that - a tradesman who really takes pride and care in his work and has the capability of attaining that goal.

In America we have master carpenters and master plumbers. In Europe they have Master Painters - one must apprentice for ten years before being granted that title. SO, it should only follow that one who ‘mastered’ his trade should therefore, become that trades master craftsman. The Dutch Paints from Fine Paints of Europe have allowed Fine Interior Painting to finally perform at this quality level.

Remember, if you want something you have never had, you will have to to do something you have never done, so, hire a professional master painting contractor!

Does Fine Interior Painting perform a paint consultation relative to the condition of the current paint on the new home I am interested in buying?

Fine Interior Painting can provide you with a paint consultation on the existing paint conditions on your new used home you are interested in purchasing. This might well prove to be the best thing you do when purchasing a home. The reason for making that declarative statement is based on the fact that you can not fool a good painter when it comes to knowing what the current paint film reveals relative to sub surface flaws / issues which need to be addressed before any new painting starts and hopefully before you sign on the ‘purchase’ line for the property. This could be quite beneficial to you in negotiating on your purchase price. The small upfront fee charged for this important service might reap you a large reward.
