For a customer planning home repairs, the preparation can matter as much as the final colour. A painting advert should explain whether you fill and sand, protect furniture, remove old wallpaper or only apply paint to prepared surfaces. This helps people compare the actual scope rather than comparing amounts that cover different work.
1. Choose the category and the work you actually offer
Choose Services and the Painting subcategory under Renovation. Work offered includes Interior painting, Exterior painting, Wallpapering, Spray painting and Woodwork painting. Surface includes Interior walls, Ceiling, Exterior, Wood and Metal. Preparation distinguishes Painting only, Filling and sanding, Wallpaper removal and Full preparation. These choices describe the surfaces and preparation services you offer, not one property’s room count.
2. Write a specific title and description
For example, “Interior wall painting with filling and sanding in Birkirkara” is a specific title. Explain protection, preparation, number of coats if agreed, drying arrangements and cleanup. Describe wood or metal painting separately if you offer it. Do not promise that a cosmetic coating resolves an underlying leak or damp problem; identify work that requires assessment before decorating.
3. Explain your price and service area
A fixed quote should define the area, condition, preparation and materials included. Use an estimated range or price to be agreed when you have not inspected the surfaces. Tell customers whether paint, primer and repairs are included and how changes to the scope are approved. Use your real working area rather than repeating every Maltese locality in the title.
4. Check the listing before submitting
Choose the painting tasks and surfaces you handle.
State which preparation is included.
Explain paint and other material arrangements.
Show genuine work photos with the property owner’s permission.
Sign in, open Post an ad and complete the required fields. Select a real suggested location, check the pin and provide a valid +356 contact number, or use your saved profile number. Required traits must be completed; optional traits are under Detailed information. Submit once and wait for moderation. An approved listing can appear in the matching search results, but publication does not guarantee enquiries or a Google ranking.
Can I advertise both indoor and outdoor painting?
Yes, if you provide both. Select the relevant Work offered and Surface values, then explain any access limitations. A customer comparing exterior work needs to understand the proposed scope and access arrangements; the listing is a starting point for that discussion, not a substitute for a site-specific quote.
For the shared steps, read how to publish a listing, category filters and location and radius. Maltizzi helps people discover and contact independent providers; agree the scope, appointment and payment directly with your customer.
