Painting and Decorating courses
Becoming a professional painter and decorator involves a lot more than first meets the eye. That's why our courses are designed to help you with every aspect of taking on a job. We teach you about substrates, surface preparation, measuring and pricing work, applying undercoats, the properties of different types of paint and wallpaper setting out, and then we show you how to set up on your own. We even give you a marketing plan to help you successfully launch your business.
The business start-up element of our painting and decorating courses means you can start earning in as little as four weeks. It covers everything you need to know about opening a business bank account, registering for VAT and insurance, how to do your own basic bookkeeping and how to quote jobs so you make a good profit while remaining competitive.
