Which is the correct order

Posted by Rinal Patel, on
My extension has just been built and it's time to fit my kitchen however do I paint the walks first, then fit kitchen and lastly fit my engineered wooden flooring? Or is there another logical order?

Hi Rinal the normal order would be to "mist coat" the walls with paint prior to fitting the kitchen, then fit the floor and skirting ( this can be painted prior to fitting). Finally give the walls and woodwork a final coat of paint. No trade secret were given away answering this question! Thanks. Ed.

Firstly. Whoever has organised the project should have advised you The second point is have you used tradesman of this site, if not , unfortunately i cant help The rated people expert site is to help and advise. I am a tradesman and i cant earn a living advising how a project should be done. Lastly if you don't have the tradesman, feel free to advertise and you will get up to 3 tradesman who can quote. Please . Please be aware that tradesman have to pay to quote for jobs such as yours, so please don't use there advice with no intention of hiring. I have wasted a lot of money with customers giving the impression that they fool you with i need this and that done and give a quote. Only to find they have used my knowledge to complete the job at the expense of my pocket I hope you get the correct result regards Guild Flooring
