What Labrador Homeowners Should Do Before House Painters Arrive
Oxenford, Australia - October 10, 2026 / Premiere Painters /
Premiere Painters has released a practical preparation checklist for homeowners in Labrador, outlining the steps to take before a painting crew arrives to begin interior or exterior work.
The checklist covers common oversights that can slow a job down, from moving furniture to confirming colour selections before work starts.
Getting the Interior Ready
According to the checklist, one of the first tasks is clearing the rooms scheduled for painting. This means moving furniture away from walls or, where pieces are too large or heavy to shift, pushing them to the centre of the room so they can be covered with drop sheets. Wall hangings, picture frames, mirrors and anything attached to the walls should also be taken down before painters arrive, both to protect them and to give painters clear access to the full wall area.
The checklist also highlights planning around rooms that stay in daily use during the project. Where a kitchen, living area or bedroom cannot be vacated, telling the painting team ahead of time allows the schedule to be arranged around it. Premiere Painters offers flexible scheduling, and homeowners looking for painters Labrador can raise this when booking.
Preparing Outdoor Areas and Access Points
For exterior painting work, the checklist notes that clear access around the outside of the home is essential. This includes moving outdoor furniture, pot plants, garden equipment, and anything stored along the exterior walls or near windows and doors. Painters working on exterior walls, doors and windows need clear space to set up ladders and equipment safely, and removing obstacles beforehand helps the job begin without delay.
Homeowners with pets are also advised to make arrangements before the crew arrives. Dogs, cats and other animals should be kept in a separate area of the home or off the property while work is under way. This keeps animals away from wet surfaces and lets painters move around freely.
Confirming Colours and Scope Before Work Begins
The checklist places particular emphasis on confirming colour selections and agreeing on exactly which surfaces are included before painters start. This covers interior elements such as walls, ceilings and trim, as well as exterior surfaces including walls, doors and windows. Premiere Painters also provides surface preparation and repairs (cleaning, sanding, repairing damage and priming), and homeowners are encouraged to confirm which of these steps are included in their job at the quoting stage.
"A little preparation from the homeowner makes a real difference to how smoothly a paint job runs," said a Premiere Painters spokesperson. "When furniture is moved, colours are confirmed and access is clear, the crew can get straight to work on the day."
