What is it?
Painting and decorating is a versatile trade that transforms spaces by applying paint, decorative coatings, wallpaper, gilding, and sign writing in both residential and commercial settings. Professionals in this field work indoors and outdoors, using technical skill and creativity to achieve finishes that are durable, precise, and visually appealing. The craft requires strong knowledge of materials, surface preparation, and application techniques, along with an eye for detail and design, to deliver high-quality results across a wide variety of environments.
