Rental void painting built around keys, photos, and inspections
Every empty day is lost rent. These scopes lean on hard-wearing neutrals, fast-turn repairs that pass handover, and dates that line up with cleaners or inventory clerks. Feature walls and designer papers stay out unless you ask - they rarely pay back on a standard let.
What shifts void pricing or dates
- Bed count and whether all wet rooms are included
- Stain blocking after smoke, spills, or marker
- Apartment blocks with restricted hours, lift bookings, or permit parking
- Full woodwork repaint versus high-wear edges only
Keys, rules, noise, handover
Access is confirmed with named keyholders, communal rules are read before noisy prep, and handover aims for a slot that suits re-listing photography.
Rental-heavy postcodes
Heavy volume in Dublin postcodes such as Tallaght, Clondalkin, Ballyfermot, Ballymun, and Finglas; other pockets quoted when the route from base is still efficient.
Typical void-period line items
Landlord refreshes often prioritise:
- Hall, living, and corridor walls in colours that suit most tenants’ furniture
- Kitchen splash zones and bathroom walls in scrubbable grades where grease and steam hit
- Skirting and door edges touched where scuffs would fail a check-out photo
- A finish schedule you can forward to agents so touch-up tins match later
When a landlord refresh is the right product
- Private landlords with one flat or house between lets
- Agents bundling decorate into a void maintenance slot
- Hosts resetting a property after a heavy summer season
Dublin areas with frequent void repaints
How rental work differs from owner-occupier redecorating
Decisions favour speed, durability, and neutral resale to the widest tenant pool - not personal taste experiments.
- Repair scope stays tied to checkout photos and inventory notes
- Email or text updates available for overseas owners
- Products named so future maintenance does not guess at sheen
Landlord painting - void FAQs
Will you match an agent’s standard “magnolia everywhere” brief?
Yes when that is the instruction. Specific brand and shade can be agreed so the next contractor sees the same spec on the wall label.
Can you meet a fixed handover date?
If the void length and scope are realistic. Tight windows need an early site look; last-minute bookings with heavy repairs may need phased handover.
Do you dispose of tenant rubbish left on site?
General waste clearance is not assumed. Small packaging from our materials is removed; bulk items need a separate arrangement.
