Loss adjustor had accepted my claim for water damage and had supplied own contractors to redecorat various rooms ( including all ceiling, walls (both using Trade Diamond Egg Shell paint), however, their contractor/ decorators had painted all walls and ceiling with 3 coats of paint within 4 hours) and where the leaks were the bubbled up area are showing some are 1 meter long ). Also, the the water stains was covered using a white stain blocker but these stains are still showing through and the new painted ceiling is also white.
The loss adjustor has agree to redo some of these areas, and I am waiting to hear whether they will appoint a different decorating company.
Question
1. how can the stained areas be made good of so that the stains no longer show through
2. how to make good of the uneven surfaces and the bubbled up areas? is it to sand down and repaint the problem walls and ceiling areas ?
3. the oil painted door frames and skirtings will be repainted with water base paint, do these need to be sanded to bare wood before applying the water base paint?
4. Should brush strokes and paint roller marks be seen on the painted sufaces? as I was told it is due to the uneven walls and ceilings?
5. is it better to find my own contractor ask the loss adjustor to cover the cost or use the contractor supplied by them ?
