What sets decorating prices in Salcombe.
The Salcombe homes we quote most range from tidy rentals that just need a refresh to characterful houses across South West 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.
Size and surfaces
It's not just how many rooms, but how much surface: a room full of doors, frames and detailed skirting takes far longer than four plain walls of the same size.
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.
Paint and spec
The finish you choose shifts the number: a straightforward emulsion refresh costs less than a bold colour change (which needs more coats) or a specialist wipeable paint for a busy kitchen or bathroom.
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.
