PAINTING SERVICES

When it comes to painting services, the key ingredient for a good painting job is to choose the right painters. We're talking painters and decorators that make that extra effort from start to finish. At AVONPRESS we're more than happy to take down the curtains, the pictures and move the furniture around to get the job done. We also ensure that your furniture and floor coverings are covered well so there is no mess to clean up.

 

Attention to detail is the order of the day, light switches get loosened and cut around nicely, skirtings are cut in well to the carpets and we always leave small touch up pots of the primary paint colours.

 

SO, HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO PAINT A ROOM?

It's not a trick question but the answer is tricky as there are so many variables when it comes to painting a room. For example a front lounge or reception with a nice bay window, painted fireplace and painted alcove cupboards will take loads more work than the same size room with a upvc window, no fireplace and no alcove units. The former will cost in the region of £650 / £750 whilst the simple room can be £400 / £500.

​

Other factors that influence the cost of painting the room include feature walls, wallpapering, stripping walls, lining the walls and the amount of prepwork required to provide a good quality finish.

WHAT ABOUT THE PAINT? WHICH BRAND SHOULD I USE?

If you consider that most of the cost of painting a room is the labour rather than the paint materials, why would you bother to go cheap on the materials? You will only save about £50 and you will end up with paint that doesn't wear well, fades quickly and can't be washed. Our advice is to use premium brands with vinel emulsion for the walls and ceilings and eggeshell for the woodwork. That way you get a lovely finish and have walls than can take a bit of cleaning without removing the paint.
