Challenge 1: It takes too long to decorate
Do you keep putting off a room makeover because you think you don’t have time? We know the feeling! Waiting for coats to dry before you can paint the next one can feel really time consuming – particularly when you’re trying to juggle work and home life.
The solution: Forget watching paint dry! There are some great paints you can apply with just one coat, such as the new Dulux Simply Refresh range for
walls. Its one coat guarantee means you’ll complete your project in super quick time – you can even use Dulux Quick Drying Satinwood to save time on your woodwork too.

Challenge 4: It will create too much mess
Cleaning paint brushes and rollers, moving furniture, tidying up and the general mess that comes with decorating can put many of us off, especially when you have a full house of busy people.
The solution: Good preparation and planning is the answer! Arm yourself with everything you need to do the job beforehand – from thick dust sheets and masking tape, to quality rollers and paint brushes – and explore the Dulux Expert Help section for tips on getting the perfect finish. Most importantly, choose a paint that’s easy to apply with just one coat and a quick-drying water-based satinwood for the woodwork. That way you’ll be able to get it done and dusted quickly without too much mess or disruption to the rest of the household.
