Decorator costs

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.

    • Although this sounds worrying, a "bitey" fox is unusual. I see foxes all the time where I live near Rye Lane and have never experienced this. I've even seen a fox sitting in the garden where an outdoor cat lives, whilst the cat was there - the cat was fine and is still alive. I think my flat is on a fox path because I hear and see them most nights, none of the local cats seem bothered by them. I can't help but wonder what would make the fox act in such a way, I've just read that toxoplasmosis might make them more aggressive 
    • Purse with cash and cards (including photo card) found in road local to East Dulwich Tabernacle. It will be here (107 Barry Road) all day (Sunday 21 December) if you want to collect or PM me.  In case some one else who knows R Howard, please alert her.    Thank you
    • Thanks Sue.  No the car just drove on.  We don't know if they noticed.  We were driving behind.  We were just glad we could be with the cat, and take him to the vet, rather than leaving him there 😞
    • Certainly the infamous (and mythical) SE London cat killer turned out to be foxes attacking dying and dead cats injured by cars, but fox: cat encounters do appear to happen, even where cats are victorious. Fox: adult humans less so. At least where foxes are the aggressors.
