Your ceiling contributes to the overall finish of your home. People sometimes say the best ceiling is one you do not notice, and we agree. A ceiling that draws the eye can distract from the rest of the interior. A smooth, well-finished ceiling creates a sense of calm: it is there without demanding attention.
What can go wrong when painting a ceiling with a roller?
Many of our fellow painters prefer to roll ceilings. And to be fair, painting a ceiling is not especially difficult for a skilled decorator, provided it is done properly. Problems often arise when people tackle their own ceiling without much experience and underestimate the work involved.
People often underestimate what is involved in painting a ceiling. Paint quality, rollers and other materials do not always get enough attention. Unfortunately, we regularly see the result: visible bands and streaks that remain on the ceiling.
Spray painting your ceiling can save a lot of trouble
Choosing spray painting instead of rolling has several advantages. It is much faster, gives a more even finish and provides full coverage in one application. Spraying also avoids roller marks and lap marks, with an even coat across the whole surface.
When is spray painting better than rolling?
There are several situations where spray painting is preferable to using a roller, particularly in new-build homes and on new plasterwork. For freshly plastered walls and ceilings, we consider spray painting the natural choice. Your plasterer has worked hard to create a smooth surface, and spray painting gives it the smooth finish it deserves.
