Message us a few photos of the rooms and we'll turn a fixed written St Ives price around, usually within hours.
What sets decorating prices in St Ives.
The St Ives 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.
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
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.
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
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.
