Pricing questions

Do you charge VAT?

No. We are not VAT registered, so no VAT is added to our prices.

Are materials included in these prices?

No. The prices are for labour. Materials are quoted separately as their own line: paint, primer, filler, masking materials, sandpaper and other consumables.

Are these the final prices?

They are starting prices. After we see photos of your space we send a free, itemised quote that lists every line, so you know the total before any work begins.

What does a small room price include?

Walls and ceiling, one colour, two coats, standard preparation and standard ceiling height, over a similar or lighter existing colour. Protection and masking, extra colours and colour changes over dark colours are listed separately.

Who buys the materials?

Either way works. You give us the specification (for example the paint brand and colour) and we buy the materials and invoice them, or you supply the materials yourself.

How long will the job take?

It depends on the size of the space and on the conditions. Temperature and humidity affect how fast paint dries, so timings depend on the weather and the conditions in your building. We give an estimated timeframe in your quote and agree dates with you.
