Sash window repaint and rope replacement on our Derby 1930s semi. Wallpaper steamed off, walls stabilised, two-coat finish in chalky matt. Total ยฃ2640 over 6 days. Dust-sheets every day, hoover at end of each evening, no walking dust around.
Compared four painters in Derby through BestBuilders. Two PDA-affiliated painters, two not. Picked the most thorough one. Old paint stripped from the woodwork before priming and finishing. Final invoice ยฃ2845. Dust-sheets every day, hoover at end of each evening.
Two summers on, the sash window paint has not cracked at all. Painter we found via BestBuilders in Derby specced two coats of mist coat instead of one - paint absorption is much more even. Total ยฃ3308. Recommended to two friends, both delighted.
