Patio Painting ๐Ÿ–Œ๏ธ

2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Lambeth.

Thursday, 23rd of September 2021

There's always time for a GoodGym task after work on Thursday. Effie and I met outside Mr. H's place, a place I've been before (around 3-4 weeks ago). This time, it was to put a second coating of wood protection on.

Mr. H looked in good spirit as he mixed two types of wood protection paint as he didn't want his patio to change too much in colour. We had a choice of three tools: a small roller (Effie's choice), a big roller (for the floor) and a brush that had seen better days (Sam's choice).

Effie and I had a setup that I would paint on the outside and she would paint inside as we would get the task done quick. It worked as we finished coating the patio under an hour compared to the first time that took over an hour. After waiting for the paint to dry and talking about food that was making us hungry, we put back the items that were in the patio before we started painting. The task was completed in the alloted time.

Mr. H was very pleased with the outcome and is looking forward to continuing with project with the patio by putting a roof or some sort of covering on top.
