Everything You Need for the Job
Whether you’re repainting one room or tackling the whole house, the right kit makes the work quicker and the result neater. Here’s what you’ll find in each category.
Brushes
Good brushes give you cleaner lines and a smoother finish, especially around edges, windows and woodwork. Choose from a range of sizes and styles to suit the job and the paint you’re using.
Rollers & Trays
Rollers cover large areas quickly and evenly, making them ideal for walls and ceilings. Pair your roller with a tray and you’re ready to get going.
Tapes
Painter’s tape helps you get crisp, straight edges and protects the surfaces you don’t want to paint. Have a look at the options for skirting boards, window frames and ceilings.
Fillers & Prep
A smooth surface is the secret to a professional-looking finish. Fill holes and cracks, sand back rough patches and clean the surface before you paint.
Dust Sheets & Protection
Keep floors, furniture and fittings clean while you work. Dust sheets and protective covers make clearing up much simpler once the job’s done.
Preparing to Paint: Where to Start
Most painting jobs follow the same order, and each step has its own tools.
- Protect: cover floors and furniture with dust sheets, and mask edges with tape.
- Prepare: fill any holes or cracks, then sand and clean the surface.
- Paint: cut in around edges with a brush, then use a roller and tray for the larger areas.
- Tidy up: remove tape while the paint is still slightly tacky for a clean line, then clean your tools.
Taking time over the first two steps usually makes the biggest difference to how the final finish looks.
Choosing the Right Tools for Your Paint
The best brush or roller depends on the paint and the surface. Smooth walls and ceilings suit a roller, while woodwork and detail call for a brush. Check the product page for what each item is designed for, and match it to your finish. Our paint guide can help you choose the right paint first.
