Darius Bygg & Alltjänst performs everything from groundwork and paving to painting house facades. The company is based in Vallda and is run by Darius Banevicius and his father, Steponas.

An Exclusive Feeling

“Tar… Isn’t that only used on boats”? That was Darius Banevicius’s first reaction when he and his father, Steponas, were commissioned to paint a modern, distemper painted house with Black Tar. Now, they have already painted their second house with wood tar and are happy to talk about how good it looks.

– At first, we thought it was a bit messy and troublesome that it dries slower than some other facade paints. But we quickly realized that there were all the more strengths. Above all, there are not many paints that give such a good-looking result, says Darius Banevicius at Darius Bygg & Alltjänst.
The premiere house in Vallda
A modern single-story house with a sea view in Vallda Sandö thus became the premiere house for Darius and his father when it comes to wood tar. They painted the 226 square meter house twice during the month of May.

– It is important that the weather is good and preferably paint in direct sunlight. Also invest in good quality brushes, be careful throughout the painting and cover surfaces that should not be painted.

“Nice to avoid priming”
After the summer, Darius and Steponas were also commissioned to paint over a red distemper painted house with Red Tar. It was Auson who tipped off the homeowner in Hjuvik about Darius Bygg & Alltjänst after their fine painting work in Vallda Sandö.

“It was really fun to paint with Red Tar Paint as well. Not having to apply a primer is a major advantage of tar paints, and painting over distemper paint gives an especially beautiful result. There’s an exclusive feeling when painting with wood tar,” says Darius.

Our Best Painting Tips:

1. Pick out fine weather and preferably paint in direct sunlight.
2. Brush off old paint.
3. Be extra careful to cover everything that should not be painted.
4. Invest in good brushes – otherwise they will wear out quickly.
5. Be incredibly careful throughout the painting.

Marklund’s Painting and Floor Sanding in central Skellefteå performs painting work and renovation projects for both businesses and private individuals. The company has been around since 2001 and consists of six painters and two floor sanders/carpenters.

“Beautiful Color that Blends into Nature”

Before customers Lena and Ingemar Norman were introduced to Auson’s tar paints, they knew virtually nothing about wood tar. Now, Peter Hedström and Jörgen Marklund at Marklund’s Painting and Floor Sanding have painted Lena and Ingemar’s beautiful functionalist house with Tar Vitriol, and they truly believe in the product.

“It felt very positive to paint with the tar vitriol. We like that it is a product from the forest and that it provides a sustainable result. Lena and Ingemar’s functionalist house turned out incredibly beautiful, and the paint really gives a lovely sheen. The best thing about the tar vitriol is the beautiful color that blends into nature,” says foreman Peter Hedström.

Good to test paint
Peter and Jörgen test-painted a board with both Tar Vitriol, Yellow Tar, and Red Tar. But it was Tar Vitriol that customers Lena and Ingemar preferred the most. Their functionalist house was then painted in the spring of 2016, with three weeks between the first and second coats.

“If you feel unsure about the tar paints, it’s great to test paint first. Let the board dry to see the final result; if you have a lot of time, you might leave it until the following summer. When painting, be very careful with the mixing ratio between wood tar and balsam turpentine,” emphasizes Peter.
