See prices guideCeiling Painting in Mortlake and Barnes Common — FAQs.
How much does it cost to paint a ceiling?
It depends on the ceiling's size, height and condition — a stained or textured ceiling takes longer than a flat, clean one. Send a photo on WhatsApp and we'll reply with a free fixed quote.
Will an old water stain show through the new paint?
Not if it's sealed properly first. We treat any watermark or stain with a specialist stain-blocking primer before painting, so it can't bleed back through the fresh coats.
Can you paint over an artex ceiling instead of removing it?
Yes — most artex is safely over-painted rather than sanded or stripped, which avoids disturbing any older material. It's the quickest way to freshen a textured ceiling without a full skim.
