Q6... Do I have to use Paint and Materials supplied by FreshColours ?

​

Not at all, FRESHCOLOURSTM actively encourages our customers to choose and purchase their own paints and materials whenever possible to help save money on discounts in local DIY  stores.                                                                                                                                                         FRESHCOLOURSTM     

​

Q7... I Hate the smell of Paint and I'm Asthmatic with other health issues ?

​

FRESHCOLOURSTM  uses low odour and water based paint to reduce smells but unfortunately some materials used in the preparation stages such as wood filler, silicones and caulk can leave a strong smell in a room for many hours until dry. We do provide advice to customers purchasing their own paint and materials which are the best suited for individual health issues.                                                               FRESHCOLOURSTM

​

Q8... Do I need to Purchase different types of paint for certain rooms?

​

For bathrooms or Kitchens Decorating  FRESHCOLOURSTM recommends using Kitchen and bathroom paints as these are special paints that contain anti fungal and mould inhibiting properties. These paints do smell and can irritate your eyes and skin when used  but are very hard wearing when dry and the walls can be cleaned easily with a damp cloth.                                                                                                               FRESHCOLOURSTM
