How pricing works in Clerkenwell.
Your quote in Clerkenwell 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 Clerkenwell project keeps looking sharp for years. If a wall needs plastering rather than paint, we'll tell you honestly.
