Quite apart from the fact that a beautifully designed interior enhances a gazebo, at least if you want to use it as a living room in the countryside, a coat of paint also reliably protects the wood from weathering. The following article is dedicated to how to carry out this painting work professionally.
A coat of paint is also good for the inside of the garden house
Why should the inside be painted?
Although it is usually dry inside the garden house, dust and cobwebs combined with the natural humidity form organic substances that provide an excellent breeding ground for mold and weathering.
If moisture inadvertently penetrates at some point, only unpleasant-smelling mildew stains form at first. As a result, dangerous mold infestation becomes visible.
That's why the following applies: The interior of the garden house can't be done without a coat of paint.
What to do if nothing has been canceled yet?
Our advice: do this as soon as possible. To do this, proceed as follows:
- Clear the entire house and check corners and walls thoroughly. Are there already mold stains?
- Then you should also take a look at the roof, sometimes water penetrates here after just a few years. Seal the roof if necessary.
- If water collects in the interior, it may also be necessary to seal the floor panel against moisture rising from the subsurface.
How is it deleted?
If the house is newly built, a first protective coat should be applied before assembly. Preferably use breathable and moisture-regulating glazes for the interior.(66.50€)
- Remove old layers of paint down to the pores with emery paper before painting the renovation.
- Paint the walls first, then the ceiling and finally the floor.
- Depending on the surface and use of the arbour, conventional wall paints or glazes with a wood tone can be used, which give the garden shed (€24.90) a rustic look.
