What sets decorating prices in West Dulwich.
A lot of what shapes a West Dulwich 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.
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.
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
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
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.
