Cost of painting

Recommended Posts

Good folk of EDF,


I am getting fed up with painting my place and am thinking about getting some in, but not sure if I can afford it. Anyone got any ideas how much it would cost to have a ceiling and coving painted (including gluing down the line paper where it has lifted from the seams) for an approx 10m2 room plus doing the walls and ceiling of a stairway (so very hight ceilings in places)?

Probably would have been better if I'd clarified this in the first instance, but I'd really like ballpark figures only at this stage rather than invitations to do the work. I'm being inundated but I don't want to waste any more people's time at this stage with arranging formal quotes as I don't even know if this is feasible without knowing rough costs.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
