Riikka Holmsten and Jukka Leppänen had their facade painted by Väriset Oy at their semi-detached house in Vantaa. The other half of the semi-detached house was also treated at the same time. The painting went smoothly in the hands of professionals, and the couple didn’t have to sacrifice their summer days on a painting project.
Riikka, who works as a Customer Manager at Isku Interior, and Jukka, who works as a Sales Director at an international IT company, live in a semi-detached house built in 2005 in Vantaa.
– We bought this brand new back then. Nothing had been done to the exterior cladding over the years, so we knew this kind of renovation was coming, Riikka and Jukka say.
“You should consider how big of a job it really is”
Riikka and Jukka originally intended to paint the house themselves. However, the couple lives a busy life and values their free time, so they also explored options for outsourcing the renovation.
– The first option was to paint the house ourselves, Riikka and Jukka note.
– However, you should consider how big of a job it really is. It’s not just about applying paint to the surface, Riikka advises others considering house painting.
When Väriset, found at the Vantaa Jumbo showroom, made a site visit and gave the couple a quote, the choice between doing it themselves and outsourcing didn’t take long to make.
– The price wasn’t bad, and the neighbors also got excited about the idea of outsourcing the painting project, Riikka says.
– It takes quite a lot of time if you start doing it yourself. All that effort of getting scaffolding, paints, and other supplies – considering that, the price wasn’t bad, Jukka notes.
“Nothing to complain about”
According to Riikka and Jukka, the exterior painting went well from start to finish. The residents trusted the professionals in both planning and execution of the painting – and the result reflected that.
– They assessed what needed to be done and proceeded independently, carefully, and systematically. They washed the eaves, brushed the house, and painted both the house and the eaves’ base boards.
– They protected everything really well. Not just the foundation, but the yard plants and everything else, the couple recalls with satisfaction.
The new paint surface will last again, and there are many carefree years ahead with the painted house. The satisfied residents are happy to recommend Väriset Oy’s services to others considering house painting as well.
– We would definitely recommend them! Everything went as agreed and the painting progressed faster than expected. Plus, you’re also supporting domestic work, which is a big thing!
