- Masking and shielding — Sockets, switches, glass, hinges and hardware taped and protected.
- Furniture handled with care — Moved, centred and covered — and put back exactly where it was.

What decorating really costs in Edinburgh — and how to get your fixed quote.
See prices guideHouse Painting in Edinburgh — FAQs.
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.
Are you local to Edinburgh?
Yes — we're a local team covering Edinburgh (EH1) and the surrounding area, including Newhaven, Northfield, Danderhall, Colinton. That means a nearby crew, fast quotes and flexible dates with no travel premium.
Do you supply materials for Edinburgh jobs?
Either way works: we supply quality trade paint as part of your quote, or you buy your own and we'll tell you exactly how much you need using our paint calculator.
Do you cover Edinburgh?
Yes — our local decorators cover Edinburgh (EH1) and the surrounding area, including Newhaven, Northfield, Danderhall, Colinton. Same-week slots are often available.
