What sets decorating prices in Lochgelly.
The Lochgelly homes we quote most range from tidy rentals that just need a refresh to characterful houses across Scotland where the walls have stories to tell. That spread is exactly why a photo-based quote beats a price list — it prices your rooms, not an average.
Surface condition
Sound walls need little more than a wash and fill; walls with blown plaster, peeling paint or stubborn paper need real prep first — and that prep is what separates an honest quote from a cheap one.
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.
Access and protection
Tall stairwells, occupied rooms, furniture to move, floors to protect, parking and permits — the practical side of the job that careful decorators plan and cowboys ignore.
Size and surfaces
Wall and ceiling area, plus how much woodwork — skirting, doors, frames, windows — is in the spec. Woodwork is slower than walls, so it moves the price more than room count alone.
