Based on a standard 3-bedroom house, costs may increase if additional coats or high-quality materials are required.

Common questions  Stainesai
A new build decoration typically includes a mist coat on new plaster, filling and sanding of plasterboard joints, caulking internal angles, two coats of emulsion on ceilings and walls, and undercoating and glossing or satin finishing of woodwork.
For a standard 3-bedroom house, the decoration process usually takes 1-2 weeks, including drying times between coats.
The price can be affected by the size of the house, the quality of materials chosen, and any additional coats or finishes required.
Typically, the painter/decorator will supply the materials, but you can discuss specific preferences or upgrades with them. Always confirm with your tradesperson before work begins.
