Painting & Decorating FAQs
What painting and decorating services do you offer?
We provide complete interior and exterior painting and decorating services including wall and ceiling painting, woodwork painting, wallpapering, feature walls, surface preparation, filling and plastering, flooring installation, tiling, exterior render and cladding painting. We handle everything from single rooms to whole house transformations for residential and commercial properties across Kent.
How long does it take to decorate a room?
A standard bedroom or living room typically takes 2-3 days including preparation, painting, and allowing proper drying time between coats. Larger rooms or those requiring extensive preparation, wallpapering, or woodwork refinishing may take 4-5 days. We always provide realistic timelines during your quote and work efficiently without compromising quality.
Do I need to move furniture before you start?
We can work around your furniture and will move smaller items as needed. We protect all furniture with dust sheets and take care to minimize disruption. For whole house decorating, it's helpful if you can clear valuable or fragile items, but we'll discuss the best approach during your consultation based on the scope of work.
What preparation work is included?
All our painting work includes thorough preparation—the foundation of a quality finish. We fill cracks and holes, sand surfaces smooth, repair damaged plaster or woodwork, clean walls, apply primers where needed, and protect floors and furniture. Proper preparation ensures paint adheres correctly and the finish lasts for years.
What areas in Kent do you cover?
We serve all of Kent including Ashford, Canterbury, Maidstone, Folkestone, Dover, Sevenoaks, Tunbridge Wells, and surrounding areas. Based in Sellindge near Ashford, we're ideally positioned to provide professional painting and decorating services throughout the county.
How much does painting and decorating cost?
Costs vary based on room size, condition, and work required. A typical bedroom costs £400-£800, living rooms £600-£1,200, and full house interiors £3,000-£8,000+. Wallpapering starts from £200 per room. Exterior painting depends on property size and access. We provide free, detailed quotes with transparent pricing and no hidden costs.
