Environmental Responsibility

It’s not just what we paint. It’s how we do it.

I didn’t start Catansus Painters with a mission to be “green.” I started with a simple intention: to do things properly. Clean, careful, no shortcuts. Just good work, done with respect. But as time passed, we began to realise something important: every small decision matters. So we started paying attention. To what we use, how we use it, and what we leave behind.

What that looks like in our daily work

• Low-VOC paints

We use paints that are safer for the air you breathe. It’s not just about the smell—it’s about your health. We treat your home like we’d treat our own.

• No wasteful habits

We bring exactly what’s needed. No overordering, no unnecessary waste, no half-used cans tossed in a bin. Just smart preparation and respect for the materials.

• Proper disposal

Leftover paint never goes down a drain. Empty cans don’t end up in skips. Everything gets sorted and taken to the right place. No cutting corners.

• Second life for leftover paint

Every few months, we collect leftover paint and donate it to ReLove Paint, a brilliant local initiative here in Ireland.

They clean it, reprocess it, and give it to schools, community centres, and families who need it.

A small effort with a real impact.

• Smarter tools, cleaner jobs

We invest in quality gear. That means better finishes, fewer messes, and less waste along the way.

• We support local

When possible, we buy materials from local suppliers. That means fewer transport emissions, fewer delays, and more money staying in the community.

We’re not trying to save the planet. But we do give a damn. We’re not perfect. We don’t drive electric vans. But we show up every day trying to do things better—for your home, your family, and the space we share. And yes—clients notice. Many choose us for exactly this reason.

Still learning We try new things. We ask questions. We listen. Because doing a good job also means being open to doing it even better.

Work with people who actually care If you care about how your home looks—and how the job is done—then we’re already aligned. We don’t overpromise. We just do honest work, with intention and care.

Get in touch.

No pitch. No fluff.

Just solid painting—done the right way.
