Other internal painting and decorating FAQs

Will a decorator fill cracks?

Yes, filling cracks and preparing surfaces is a standard part of most decorating services to ensure a smooth, flawless finish.

Should I hire a painter or paint it myself?

Hiring a professional can save you time and ensure a high-quality finish, especially for complex projects or high ceilings. If you’re considering a DIY approach, weigh the complexity of the job against your skills and the time you can dedicate.

Do paint quotes include the paint?

This depends on the decorator. Some quotes will include materials, while others may charge separately for paint. Always confirm this detail upfront.

Tim was punctual, he was very polite and extremely pleasant to talk to. Any questions we had were answered quickly and occasionally with advice on colours and textures. His work was excellent and he tidied up after finishing the job even to my wife's satisfaction. We would recommend Tim to anyone, and we will use him in the future.

Andrea and his team were excellent. He is very reliable, efficient and hard working. He made a very challenging job look easy and did some extra things for me that weren’t included in the quote, without charging extra. He got back to me quickly and the whole job took less than 2 weeks from me posting to completion. I would definitely recommend this company and I’m sure I will ask him to do other jobs for me.

A guy called Michael showed up, gave it all the large talk about what he would do. Gave him an address for another project also out of goodwill so he didn’t have to buy another lead. Promised to get back to me despite promising me he would return that week to do the work. Instead just ignored every phone call and message. He kept mentioning about wanting to do it in the evening…. This was impossible as it was a shopfront. Absolutely no balls, AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!
