Kitchens and living rooms take more abuse than anywhere else in a house, so they get finishes that can be wiped and will not sit soft. Ceilings are left flat and even, which is where a kitchen usually gives itself away.
Open plan makes the colour decision matter more, because one shade is carrying a kitchen, a dining area and a sitting area at three different light levels. Worth deciding before the first coat rather than after.
- Kitchens, utilities, living and dining rooms
- Open plan spaces carried through in one scheme
- Ceilings left flat and even
- Window boards, cills and architraves
- Radiators and pipework where they need it
- Feature walls where you want one

Who we are
Robbie Leahy, trading as Painted by Robbie, a painting and decorating business operating in Cork, Ireland. Robbie is the data controller. Contact: robbieleahy980@gmail.com or 085 847 5032.
What we collect
- The name, phone number, job location and job description you type into the quote form, and your email address if you choose to give it.
- Our web host records the usual server access logs, which include your IP address and browser, as every web server does.
- This site sets no cookies and shows no advertising. Visits are counted with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is cookieless and stores nothing about you as a person, and taps on the call, WhatsApp and email buttons are counted as plain numbers only.
Why we hold it
To reply to your enquiry and price the work. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR: taking steps at your request before entering into a contract. The tick box on the form is there so you know what the details are for, and you can ask us to delete them at any time.
Who else sees it
- The web host that serves this site, the form provider that delivers the message to Robbie’s inbox, and Cloudflare, which counts visits and holds a copy of each enquiry for up to 90 days for the counting, then deletes it.
- If you choose to message on WhatsApp instead, that conversation happens on WhatsApp and is covered by their own privacy terms, not ours. Ringing or emailing avoids that entirely.
- Nobody else. Your details are never sold or passed on for marketing.
How long
Enquiries are kept for up to two years, then deleted. Records tied to work carried out are kept as long as tax and insurance rules require.
Your rights
You can ask for a copy of what we hold, ask us to correct it, ask us to delete it, or object to us holding it. Email the address above and it will be dealt with. If you are unhappy with how it was handled you can complain to the Data Protection Commission at dataprotection.ie.
Thanks
We have received your message. Robbie will get back to you shortly.
If it is urgent, ring 085 847 5032 or send the photos straight over on WhatsApp.
