What sets decorating prices in Chelsea.
A lot of what shapes a Chelsea price is invisible until you look closely: the condition under the old paint, whether ceilings have been over-artexed, how many coats a deep colour change really needs. We read those from your photos so the number we give you holds.
Surface condition
Fresh plaster, hairline cracks, flaking paint, old wallpaper — the state of what we're painting over sets the prep hours, and prep is the biggest hidden variable in any decorating price.
Paint and spec
Trade matt on walls is the baseline; scrubbable, moisture-resistant or heritage paints, deep colour changes and extra coats sit above it. We spec what the room needs and say why.
Access and protection
Working around your life adds time — masking, sheeting, moving and covering furniture, and keeping rooms usable each evening — and so does anything that needs towers or ladders to reach safely.
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.

Decorating prices in Chelsea — FAQs.
Is decorating in Chelsea more expensive than elsewhere?
The main differences are practical: parking, access and property age. Because we work Chelsea and St Luke's, Royal Hospital, Hans Town, Chelsea Embankment constantly, our quotes price those accurately rather than padding for the postcode.
Why don't you publish a price list for Chelsea?
Because surface condition and spec change the price more than room size does. A list either overcharges easy jobs or undercharges hard ones — a fixed quote from photos is fairer both ways.
What's the cheapest way to decorate my Chelsea home?
Honestly? Good prep and the right paint first time, so you're not repainting in two years. We'll happily quote a phased plan for Chelsea — doing the rooms that matter most now and the rest later.
Will the price change once work starts?
No — the written quote is fixed. If you add rooms or change the spec mid-job we'll price the extras separately in writing before doing them.
