What sets decorating prices in Saint Boswells.
Access matters more in Saint Boswells than people think: parking, permits and how far materials travel from van to wall all affect time on site. Working across Scotland and Newtown St Boswells, Melrose, Earlston, Tweedbank daily means we know the practicalities of your street and build them into the quote rather than springing them on you later.
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
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.
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.
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.
