Painter & decorator

Before contacting a business

Painting quotes are difficult to compare when one includes surface preparation and another covers application only. Describe rooms or exterior areas, the condition of the existing finish and any access constraints. Record visible cracks, staining or peeling as observations rather than assuming a cause. Preparation and the condition beneath the finish should be agreed before the final specification.

Questions for your shortlist

• Which surfaces and approximate areas need work?
• What preparation and protection are included?
• Who chooses and supplies the paint, and how is the finish specified?

Compare preparation, materials, coats, protection of floors and furniture, cleanup and how hidden surface problems will be priced.
