Hello just wondered if anyone can help me out with the cost of painting the exterior of a 4 bed Victorian terrace. It's wooden sash windows and cills and front door that need painting rather than the walls.

I Appreciate each place varies in condition but just trying to get a feel for a reasonable amount.

Thanks so much

Will PM you.


In the meantime, some things to consider are the condition of the wood and how much work it will take to strip it and refinish, whether any wood will require replacing.


Scaffolding is generally quite expensive, and cost will depend on how much and how long you need it for.


If you're having more than one decorator, it will increase your labour costs, but reduce the time.


If you own the property, will any costs be covered as rolling repairs under your home owners policy?


Materials cost will vary highly depending on what you choose.


Many decorators will not charge for a quote, but will require some upfront costs to be paid. Always ask for an itemised quote, so you can see how labour and materials are allocated. xx

    • Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.

    • Hello.   Thanks Nigel and Hparker 😀   I've got new slots available for new students looking for a piano teacher or guitar teacher.   You could start in the new term beginning September, or I'm also available adhoc-styles through the summer holidays at times.   I teach all ages, in most styles, in lots of different ways according to how you learn/like to learn.   Give me a call or text on 07730 402336.   I have connections to lots of performance opportunities/networks too.   I run regular events /student concerts, and play in bands/perform.   Natalie. 
    • So do I, but I think they are in trouble as well.  Anyway, that space wouldn't be big enough.
