How pricing works in Portobello.
Every job is different, so we price your Portobello project individually and give you a clear written quote before any work starts — no hidden extras. Here's what shapes your price:
Size & surfaces
How many rooms or walls, ceiling heights, and whether woodwork and ceilings are included.
Condition & prep
Cracks, old wallpaper, flaking paint or bare plaster — honest prep needs, priced up front.
Paint & access
Trade paint choice (or supply your own), and anything needing ladders, towers or scaffold.
Finishes matched to every surface.
Kitchens need different paint to bedrooms; woodwork needs different paint to walls. For your Portobello project we spec the right finish for every surface — and explain why.
From photos to finished in four steps.
Four steps between your photos and a flawless finish in Portobello — and the first three cost you nothing.

We prep and protect
Dust sheets down, furniture covered, then proper prep: filling, sanding, caulking and priming.
A flawless finish
Two coats of quality trade paint, a tidy-up and a final walkthrough — we're not done until it's right.
Spray finishes: kitchens, doors & uPVC.
Factory-smooth results without factory prices — sprayed kitchens, doors and uPVC in Portobello.
Kitchen spraying
Cabinet doors, frames and end panels resprayed in any colour — a new kitchen look without the rip-out.
uPVC windows & doors
White to anthracite (or any colour) with 10-year coating systems, sprayed on site.
Furniture & garage doors
Wardrobes, dressers and garage doors refinished to match your scheme.
Prep is our obsession.
Cracks filled and sanded flat. Gaps caulked so lines stay crisp. Stains blocked, bare patches primed, old wallpaper stripped properly — not papered over. It's slower, and it's the only way your Portobello project keeps looking sharp for years. If a wall needs plastering rather than paint, we'll tell you honestly.

What decorating really costs in Portobello — and how to get your fixed quote.
See prices guideDecorators in Portobello — FAQs.
How much do decorators charge?
Every room is different — size, condition and how much finishing work is involved. Send photos and a rough idea of what you want on WhatsApp and we'll come back with a free fixed quote.
What's the difference between a painter and a decorator?
A painter applies the paint; a decorator plans and finishes the whole room — colour scheme, wallpaper, mouldings and the small details that make it look professionally done. We offer both, so you get one team for the complete job.
Do decorators also hang wallpaper?
Yes — feature walls, whole rooms or a full strip-and-repaint, whichever suits the space. Send photos on WhatsApp and we'll advise the best approach along with a free fixed quote.
Are you insured to work in Portobello?
Yes — every job in Portobello is carried out by decorators with public liability insurance. Need documentation for a landlord, agent or building manager? Just ask and we'll provide it.
Can I book an evening or weekend slot in Portobello?
Yes — we work 7 days a week, and out-of-hours slots are standard for Portobello businesses and busy households alike.
