Thank so much for the detailed answer. I think the paint comes off fairly easily, as you say, and in the rest of the house, there are instances of tiny areas of paint flaking, which probably means the people who painted it really didn't wait long enough before painting.
How big an area would you recommend me to scrap off? I just worried about the transition between new and old paint?
! Also, this is probably too small a job to have much interest from a painter right? Mainly asking because wife is 8 months pregnant and getting it right on first straight away would obviously be nice.
You'll be able to that yourself - just have all the right equipment (you'll invariably forget something/require something else but still), follow the steps and take a bit of time.
