How long does it take to paint a whole house?
A typical 3-bed house interior takes 1–2 weeks depending on condition and how much woodwork is included; exteriors add a few days in the right weather. Your quote includes a clear schedule.
Is it cheaper to paint before moving in?
Yes, noticeably — empty rooms need no furniture handling and dry faster with windows open, so the same house takes fewer days. If you can give us the keys between exchange and move-in, that's the sweet spot.
Can you help choose colours for the whole house?
Yes — free colour advice comes with every quote. We'll help you build a palette that flows room to room and suits the light each room gets.
