Hello just wondered if anyone can help me out with the cost of painting the exterior of a 4 bed Victorian terrace. It's wooden sash windows and cills and front door that need painting rather than the walls.

I Appreciate each place varies in condition but just trying to get a feel for a reasonable amount.

Thanks so much

Will PM you.


In the meantime, some things to consider are the condition of the wood and how much work it will take to strip it and refinish, whether any wood will require replacing.


Scaffolding is generally quite expensive, and cost will depend on how much and how long you need it for.


If you're having more than one decorator, it will increase your labour costs, but reduce the time.


If you own the property, will any costs be covered as rolling repairs under your home owners policy?


Materials cost will vary highly depending on what you choose.


Many decorators will not charge for a quote, but will require some upfront costs to be paid. Always ask for an itemised quote, so you can see how labour and materials are allocated. xx

    • @NewWave that’s a good idea!! Someone cannot book well in advance to cancel regularly . They should monitor that.  Also I didn’t know you can book two weeks in advance. I was not aware of it. It’s even  more frustrating now because I used to book regularly without any problem a week  in advance and on the day. I regret it!  I shouldn’t have done it. Unfortunately no money back. I guess I can try the gym for some body weight training but don’t know how it works! Thank you for your feedback 
    • Yes, probably, but I do like the one I have. 
    • @Jellybeanz In response you know nothing about me I will not list all the charities I support (with regular donations) I simply feel there are ample inexpensive opportunities for small buisnesses to advertise their services.  
    • @angehouse  I've found the same issue..its been the same for over 2 years now...every class I want to attend has a waitlist even 10days in advance and then a few hours before spaces magically become available by which point I've made other plans or do'nt have my gym stuff to hand and I'm not in the area (I don'nt lead a life where I can just sit at home and amble down to the gym as and when..theres only a few classes I can get to on my days off work) Its very very annoying. I'm sure its the same people that book well in advance then cancel..if only they could monitor the people who do this repeatedly and bar them from advance bookings for 6 weeks or something to teach them a lesson. For this reason I have'nt been to any classes at the gym for well over a year and just use the gym. Its frustrating.
