What sets decorating prices in Aberlady.
What you pay in Aberlady depends heavily on prep. Older properties around Scotland often need filling, sanding and priming before colour goes anywhere near a wall — skipping it is how cheap quotes turn into expensive repaints. We survey from your photos, price the prep honestly and fix it in writing.
Paint and spec
Paint choice matters more than people think — going dark over light, matching a heritage shade, or speccing a durable finish for a hallway all change how many coats and how much material a room takes.
Surface condition
What's under the brush decides most of the price. Nicotine stains, damp patches or badly stripped paper all mean extra sealing and filling before a single topcoat goes on.
Size and surfaces
Total area drives the base, but the fiddly bits drive the hours — cutting in around coving, spindles and window bars is where a job's time really goes.
Access and protection
The logistics count: a lived-in home with furniture to shift and floors to sheet takes longer than an empty property, and stairwells or high ceilings mean proper access gear.
