Therefore, in this article we will bring to your attention five types of repair work, which even a beginner can handle.

Painting

Plastering

This is another of the easiest and simplest types of repair and decoration works. All that is needed in order to properly putty a wall or any other surface is a good putty, primer liquid and a special brush / roller for work. First you need to prime the wall by applying a special primer liquid to it. This is done so that the plaster adheres better to the surface and does not cling before the due date. After that, using a roller or brush, apply the plaster according to the principle of painting surfaces.

Putty

This type of work is the most common among the owners of private houses and old apartments. The fact is that surfaces based on concrete mortar begin to crack over time and long cracks begin to creep along them, which over time destroy the walls. Ceilings are other surfaces. And therefore they need to be puttied (in other words, fill the cracks with a special solution). To do this, first wall the walls as shown in the previous type of work, and after that, part putty solution in water to the state of liquid plasticine and use a roller to rub it into cracks, chips, etc.
