Tips for hiring a painter & decorator in Edinburgh

  • 1Preparation is everything — a good decorator spends as much time filling, sanding and priming as they do painting. Ask how they prepare surfaces before quoting
  • 2Get 3 quotes for Wood Staining & Varnishing in Edinburgh — painting prices per room vary widely, so comparing quotes ensures you get fair value
  • 3Discuss your paint choices in advance — your decorator may be able to source trade-quality paint at better prices than retail
  • 4Move furniture and valuables out of the room before work starts — this speeds up the job and reduces the risk of damage
