Painter and decorator prices
The price of common painting and decorating tasks can vary based on the current condition of your home. For example a wallpapering job in your living room could be affected by the presence of chimney breasts, window and door placement and the quality of your plaster.
Likewise, the cost to paint a room such as a hallway could be affected by the presence of a banister which can be time consuming to paint. Painting the exterior of a property will normally require scaffolding for safety reasons and the presence of scaffolding is likely to increase the size of your painting and decorating quote.
This is why it’s important to seek out a detailed quote for your home decorating needs before hiring a trader.
What does a painter and decorator do?
A painter and decorator will use various materials such as paint, wallpaper, plaster and varnish to improve the appearance of your home interior and exterior. This usually includes general painting and decorating preparation tasks such as stripping wallpaper, washing the walls, applying undercoats and protecting windows and skirting boards from paint splatter with masking tape.
Other tasks will include the preparation of paints, including accurately estimating how much paint is required and the best type of paint to be used for painting services. Most painter and decorators will also sand down uneven walls and fill cracks to ensure surfaces are smooth before applying paint or wallpaper. These time consuming but necessary preparation measures are what makes the difference when it comes to a professional painting and decorating finish.
5 Tips for hiring a painter and decorator
- Price should not be the deciding factor when choosing a professional painting and decorating service. You want to ensure the materials being used to decorate your home or business are of the best quality – as the saying goes, “buy cheap, buy twice”. This doesn’t mean you need to hire the most expensive painting contractor in your area, it just means that you should be wary of hiring a DIY hobbyist over a home decorating professional if you want the best possible result.
- Always ensure you ask for a quote on price, including any possible reasons for why the quote might increase. Often a trader may be able to secure materials at trade costs, helping to drive down the price of buying the materials yourself.
- Ask for an estimation of how long the job will take. This ensures both you and the painter and decorator are on the same page in terms of expectations – such as factoring in how long it will take for paint to dry, etc.
- Don’t be afraid to ask about the painting and decorating process in advance – any self-respecting painting professional will be happy to take you through the entire process to help ease any concerns you may have.
- About 75% of the painting and decorating process involves preparation so be wary if the paints and brushes come out before dust sheets, masking tape and other protective measures have been taken to prepare your home.
