Questions about water damage repainting
How much does it cost to paint a room in Lewisham?
A double bedroom with walls, ceiling, woodwork, one door and one window typically comes to £530–£860 excluding VAT; a box room with walls and ceiling only from £350–£440. Taller period ceilings, poor surfaces and big colour changes add to it. The Instant Quote prices your own rooms.
How long does a room take?
Usually one to two days including preparation and two coats, longer if walls need a lot of filling or wallpaper stripping. Whole flats and houses take longer and are sequenced room by room.
Is the online price a quote?
No. It is an indicative range worked out from your answers using our published rate table. A decorator reviews everything you sent, including photos, and confirms a fixed written quote — after a short video call or visit if the job needs one.
Do I have to give my details to see a price?
No. The Instant Quote shows the range first. Contact details are only asked for if you want a decorator to confirm a fixed quote.
Who supplies the paint?
Either. The estimate assumes trade-quality paint supplied by the decorator; you can choose a premium brand or supply your own, and the range adjusts.
Which areas do you cover?
The London Borough of Lewisham — Catford, Brockley, Forest Hill, Sydenham, Deptford, Blackheath, Hither Green, Lee, New Cross and the rest of the borough — plus neighbouring parts of Southwark, Lambeth and Greenwich. Put your postcode in the quote and we will say straight away if it is outside our range.
