Recently Holly spoke with Master Painters and Decorators Australia about how unskilled, untrained and let’s say ‘shonky’ painters have become a problem in their industry. When it comes to your home, whether renovating or building new, we want to know it’s in safe, reliable and skillful hands, so Holly had a chat with certified Master Painter, Neven Jasa from Brushworks WA.
It can be tempting to save a dollar here or there, especially when you see a deal that’s too good to be true. But as the old saying goes, “you only get what you pay for” or “if it sounds too good to be true, then it generally is”. The problem with booking a painter or any tradesman without the correct training, skills, license and insurance is that you could be out-of-pocket with no recourse.
Neven says he’s very proud of his Master Painter status, and takes a great deal of pride in the quality of his work. Neven says that with a Master Painter you will be getting someone who is very qualified and uses top quality products such as Wattyl. He also said that he’s had to fix countless jobs for people who have been taken advantage of by “shonky” work.
