How pricing works in The Lane.
Your quote in The Lane is built from the job itself, not a rate card. Three things drive it:
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.
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 The Lane project keeps looking sharp for years. If a wall needs plastering rather than paint, we'll tell you honestly.

What decorating really costs in The Lane — and how to get your fixed quote.
See prices guideDecorators in The Lane — 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.
Can I book an evening or weekend slot in The Lane?
Yes — we work 7 days a week, and out-of-hours slots are standard for The Lane businesses and busy households alike.
Which parts of The Lane do you cover?
All of it — The Lane (SE15) is fully inside our patch, along with Peckham Rye, Peckham, South Camberwell, East Dulwich. If you're on the border of two areas, don't worry: the same local team covers both.
Are you insured to work in The Lane?
Yes — every job in The Lane 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.
