Before you get in touch
Useful questions.
What affects a decorating estimate?
The surfaces included, existing condition, preparation, coating choices, protection and access all influence the scope. A room count alone does not describe the work.
Can we choose colours before the project starts?
Yes, colour and finish planning can be part of the brief. We agree a sample-review process and record the approved selections before decorating.
Can work take place in an occupied home?
Tell us how the rooms will be used and any access constraints. We can discuss protection, sequencing and what needs to be moved before work is agreed.
