How pricing works in Anerley.

Size & surfaces
How many rooms or walls, ceiling heights, and whether woodwork and ceilings are included.
Condition & prep
Cracks, old wallpaper, flaking paint or bare plaster — honest prep needs, priced up front.
Paint & access
Trade paint choice (or supply your own), and anything needing ladders, towers or scaffold.

See prices guidePlastering and Skimming in Anerley — FAQs.
Do I need plastering or just filling?
If damage is localised — a few cracks or holes — filling and sanding is cheaper and we'll say so. Widespread cracking, blown patches or heavy texture usually mean a skim is the honest fix. Send photos and we'll tell you straight.
How soon can new plaster be painted?
Typically 4–7 days depending on conditions, and it must be mist-coated with watered-down emulsion first. We build that into the schedule so the paint finish lasts.
Can you get rid of an artex ceiling?
Yes — over-skimming is the standard, safe approach and leaves a flat modern ceiling. Older artex can contain asbestos, so we never sand it; skimming seals it safely.
Do you cover the rest of Bromley?
Yes — Anerley is part of our coverage across the London Borough of Bromley, alongside Penge, Clock House, Penge and Cator, Crystal Palace. One local team, one standard, across the whole borough.
Are you local to Anerley?
Yes — we're a local team covering Anerley (SE20) and the surrounding area, including Penge, Clock House, Penge and Cator, Crystal Palace. That means a nearby crew, fast quotes and flexible dates with no travel premium.
Are you insured to work in Anerley?
Yes — every job in Anerley is carried out by decorators with public liability insurance. Need documentation for a landlord, agent or building manager? Just ask and we'll provide it.
