If you're planning on undertaking your next DIY project or are thinking of re-decorating a room at home, then it's important to make sure you're kitted out with all the necessary essentials before you crack open your next tin of paint. From fillers and sealants to brushes and roller trays, here at The Range our extensive collection of painting accessories is sure to help set you on your way to fulfilling your decorative duties.
A definite essential for any painting project, accessories such as rollers, paint trays, and suitable brushes are designed to help you tackle your project with ease.
Depending on the job to hand, brushes such as the Block Brush Masonry are great for use on stoned surfaces and walls, whereas all-purpose brushes such as the All Purpose Brush 3 Piece Set are more suited to tending to a wide variety of surfaces. Looking for a brush to help you tend to wooden surfaces? Items such as the 3 Piece Woodcare Brush Set are sure to come in handy.
For those with large areas to cover, why not opt for a roller instead of a brush? You can either pick up a singular roller, or get all of the gear you need for complete redecorating with a pack like this 17-Piece Decorators Kit to better help you paint those harder to reach areas like skirting boards, corners, and door frames.
If you're planning on re-decorating rooms with high ceilings, then you'll most likely require a ladder to help you provide an even coat. More specifically, a step ladder will be a stable and safe option that is designed to help provide that extra boost.
For surfaces that have previously had wallpaper applied to or are a little rough around the edges, then you might need to invest in some sanding and stripping tools. You can also get electric sanders, which are perfect for not only stripping surfaces but also for other upcycling projects.
Designed to smoothen and seal gaps, cracks, and unwanted uneven patches on your walls ahead of painting, fillers and sealants are an essential part of any DIY tool kit.
Fillers are designed to repair unsightly cracks and holes to provide a smooth finish that dries quickly, allowing you to proceed with your painting project within minutes. Tools such as putty knives are great for helping you scrape away surrounding debris and for allowing you to acquire a smooth coverage.
Sealants are perfect to finish joints, prevent mould and even fill in gaps around the house. Great for pairing with finishing tools, sealants are sure to help round off any DIY or painting project in style.
Keeping exposed surfaces protected and covered is an essential part of the painting process - you don't want any unexpected spills and splats! Sheets are perfect for draping over furniture items, flooring and stairs. For those looking for options to help tend to spills and stains if they're too late, there is a wide array of cleaning products specifically designed for painting.
