ᐅ Have a sample color mixed – what sample size is recommended?

Well, carefully knocking out a sample piece and repairing it afterwards, compared to paying a professional their fee, getting a guarantee, and so on, is definitely worth considering, especially since, as you yourself say, it’s not about large areas at this stage.

He doesn’t necessarily want to do the painting as well. There are plenty of people who are happy to just sell you the paint and that’s it. Even a small retailer brings in more than just labor. Try it out. Contact a master painter for advice. A DIY store will be less helpful.

With all due respect... demolishing chimneys, tearing down walls, building new walls, plastering, installing windows and doors, laying screed and tiles, relocating heating, mounting an external chimney... we’re doing everything ourselves, so hiring a painter for the painting work feels like an attack on the do-it-yourselfer ego.

For now, it’s just an area of about 30 square meters (approximately 320 square feet), nothing dramatic.

The call to the painting company resulted in: no mixing or selling paint without an order. So, off to the paint supplier we go. It will be fine.

That is such a lousy master painter.

...people from Franconia can be a bit odd at times

Then tell the Franconian that he would have to buy from a Bavarian – that should usually be enough to make him reconsider.
