Decorating Materials
« on: May 09, 2014, 13:41:36 PM »
I am coming over on Monday with a couple of mates.
This is to have a bit of holiday, but also to fully decorate the outside of our villa.
Can someone recommend a painting and decorating company for supplying masonary paint please? I need to hire a ladder to do the high level gable end and the first floor levels. A ladder 8 - 10 meters should do it. Also a small hop up or step ladder.  Hopefully the same company can deliver these and the paint too.
What would I expect to pay for a tin of paint? Not sure of how it comes, 5 litres, 2.5litres.
Thanks for your help.

I've only actually bought paint for internal use - but the DIY shop near the Sunday market appears to stock a wide variety  - I'm sure he will have masonry paint.  Tin sizes are similar to those we have in the UK.

Not sure about ladders though.

Or pay someone to do it and have a full holiday with your mates.   ;)

Do you know anywhere that sells external paint for upstairs?

The DIY shop on the main rd to the sunday market will sell the external paint and there is different types the more expensive the better.As for hiring ladders and steps I do not think you will find anywhere as there is no hire shops in Fethiye .By the time you buy the paint,find the ladder and steps and so on you might be better off getting a quote to have some one do it for you.

Good quality paint isn't cheap. I bought some from the paint shops on Gunlukbasi Road last year and I think the 2.5 litre tins were about 60TL from memory (but I was using it to 'patch up', so needed a match.)

Just thought - my steel door frame is rusting, so needs a coat of Hammeriite-type paint. Does the DIY shop near the Sunday market sell that, does anyone know?

We have used the D.I.Y shop by the market.    They have masonry paint, they also have ladders, but they sell them, you could ask if they would rent some out.   We also us the D.I.Y. Shop in Fethiye as they have a bigger selection of stuff.  So if you cannot get the colour of paint you want in Calis they usually have it in Fethiye.
Both sell hammerite paints. We have used it for our door frame, also our front door went rusty too, we decided to replace it as the ones the house builders put on are not the best quality.
