Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our painting and decorating services

What painting and decorating services do you offer?
We offer complete interior and exterior painting, wallpapering, feature walls, woodwork painting, ceiling painting, spray painting, and decorative finishes for residential and commercial properties.
How long does it take to paint a room?
A standard room typically takes 1-2 days including preparation and two coats. Larger projects or those requiring extensive prep work may take longer. We'll provide an accurate timeline during your consultation.
Do you provide the paint or do I need to buy it?
We can do either! We're happy to source premium quality paints for you, or we can work with paints you've chosen. We only use top-quality brands for lasting results.
What preparation work is included?
All necessary preparation is included: filling holes and cracks, sanding, priming, protecting floors and furniture, and masking. Proper preparation is key to a perfect finish.
Do you offer a warranty on painting work?
Yes, all our painting and decorating work comes with a comprehensive warranty. We use premium paints and proven techniques to ensure a beautiful, long-lasting finish.
How much does painting and decorating cost in Edinburgh?
Costs vary depending on room size, condition and finish required. A standard room typically ranges from £300-£600, full house interior painting £2,500-£6,000, and exterior painting £1,500-£4,000. We provide detailed written quotes with no hidden costs and can work to most budgets.
What paint brands do you use?
We use premium brands including Dulux Trade, Crown Trade, Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, and Johnstone's Trade. These professional-grade paints offer superior coverage, durability and finish compared to retail paints. We can also work with any paint brand you prefer.
Can you match existing paint colours?
Yes, we can match existing colours using colour matching technology. We can take a sample to our suppliers who will create an exact match. Alternatively, if you have the original paint details, we can source the same colour for touch-ups or additional rooms.
Do you work on listed buildings in Edinburgh?
Yes, we have extensive experience working on listed buildings throughout Edinburgh's Old Town and New Town. We understand the requirements for conservation areas and use appropriate breathable paints and traditional techniques where necessary, while meeting modern standards.
What's the best time of year for exterior painting in Edinburgh?
Late spring through early autumn (May-September) is ideal for exterior painting in Edinburgh when temperatures are consistently above 10°C and rainfall is lower. We monitor weather forecasts closely and only paint in suitable conditions to ensure proper drying and adhesion.
How do you protect furniture and floors during painting?
We take protection very seriously. All furniture is covered with dust sheets, floors are protected with heavy-duty coverings, and we use masking tape on all edges. We also use low-odour paints where possible and ensure good ventilation. Your home is left clean and tidy each day.
Can you help with colour selection and design advice?
Absolutely! We offer free colour consultation as part of our service. We can advise on current trends, colour psychology, how colours work in different lights, and which finishes work best for each room. We can also provide sample pots so you can test colours before committing.
