About Painter & Decorator
When a Single Contractor Handles Both Tasks
A painter and decorator often does wallpapering, woodwork finishing, and painting in one visit. Ask if the same person handles filler repair, caulking, and trim repainting. Combining tasks reduces setup time and usually lowers the labour total, but only when one professional carries full responsibility for all finishes in each room.
Ceiling Work, Coving, and High Areas
Ceilings are usually sprayed or rolled in 2 coats. Cutting in around light fittings, coving, and cornices adds time. A standard room of about 12 square metres takes 3 to 5 hours including setup, cutting, and rolling. Ask whether the quote includes light switch plates, smoke alarms, and ceiling roses.
Written Guarantees and What They Cover
Ask for a written statement covering peeling, flaking, and poor adhesion for at least 12 months. Most professional decorators offer this as part of the contract. The guarantee should exclude damage from leaks, impact, or humidity changes you cause after handover. Keep the invoice and product batch codes filed together.
How Long a Typical Room Takes
A standard bedroom of about 12 sq m of wall area usually takes 1 to 2 days, including drying time between coats. A whole flat of 3 rooms takes around 4 to 6 working days. Add time for furniture moving, large windows, or detailed trim work, which slow the job significantly.
Questions to Ask Before Agreeing to the Work
Ask who supplies the paint, whether the decorator is insured for accidental damage, and if a 2 year workmanship guarantee is offered. Request references from jobs done in the last 6 months, and confirm the start date in writing, including the agreed daily start and finish time.
Colour Matching and Small Batch Tinting
Touch-up paint rarely matches a can from a different batch. Keep at least 0.5 litres of the original tinted product, labelled with the formula code and room name. For larger repairs, buy all paint at once so the tinting machine produces one consistent batch across every wall, ceiling, and trim coat.
Stain Blocking for Water Marks and Smoke Damage
Brown patches from leaks or nicotine need a stain-blocking primer before top coat. Standard emulsion will not cover these marks. Shellac-based or alkyd primers seal the stain in 1 coat. Skipping this step means marks bleed through within weeks, forcing a full repaint of the affected wall section.
How to Read a Written Quote
A clear quote lists preparation, number of coats, brand and type of paint, areas included, and areas excluded. Watch for vague lines such as paint as required. Ask for square metres per room and confirm whether ceilings, skirting boards, door frames, and radiators are part of the same job or charged separately.
Common Problems and Early Warning Signs
Watch for paint applied over damp walls, which will bubble within weeks. Edges taped with masking tape can lift off cured paint if pulled at the wrong angle. Roller marks, also called flashing, appear when coats dry too fast or are spread too thin. Point these out before final payment.
After the Job, How to Check the Work
Inspect the work in daylight, not artificial light. Look along walls at an angle to spot missed areas, drips, and uneven sheen. Test wallpaper seams by gently pressing with a finger. Keep a small touch up pot of each colour, labelled with room and date, for future nail hole repairs.
