Decorator costs

Recommended Posts

Hello,


Could anyone give me a steer on costs for a decorator in ED?


I live in a fairly small one-bedroom flat, it's a new build so the walls are pretty good. Just looking for a fresh coat of paint to the walls and ceiling.


Appreciate costs can vary depending on size, type of paint etc. but I've not hired a decorator before and have no idea what is fair.


Any advice would be very much appreciated.


Thanks.

My friend had this done about 18 months ago. One bed new build. Painting walls and ceiling. No 'woodwork' ie doors or skirting. The total cost was £1200 including materials. Took two people just short of three days, I think.


I don't know the name of the contractor and can't find out, sorry.


I don't know if DIY is an option at all for you (probably not since you're asking about a decorator), but rollering walls in good condition is not that difficult and you can get good results. Materials costs for the job above would've been about £150 at the most.


Hope all that helps.

Hi.


If you would like someone to give you a free quote I recommend MJB Painters & Decorators. I've used them a number of times always been really pleased with their professionalism, fair rate, reliability and high standard of finish. Give Mark a call for a free quote on 07506 047721


Many Thanks.

    • Good plan, thanks! I do already have a fire guard which is used for its intended purpose! Smoke free heat logs, before anybody asks. I am presently using a large picture covered in an old bedspread, but a fire guard would cover more of the gap. I'll do some research!
