Painting a timber gate (single coat only)

$150

Heathfield SA, Australia

20th Nov 2024

Looking for someone to give this gate a single coat of paint. I was planning to do it but have run out of time. It doesn’t need to be a perfect job, just enough to improve the look. No prep required. The job doesn’t require a experienced painter - in fact, it might be a waste of time for them! I did a similar size gate today and it took me about 90 mins. I will provide paintbrushes and paint. Just need to turn up and get it done. Note the location will probably be in the sun for most of the day tomorrow 😬 I’m afraid it does need to be done tomorrow (Thursday)

Excellent work, incredibly flexible given we were very disorganised. Highly recommend!
