How to Choose the Right Reading Painter & Decorator

Before hiring a decorator, check the essentials:

  • Read customer reviews – See how other homeowners rate their workmanship, reliability and cleanliness.
     
  • Check credentials – Are they insured and experienced? Ask about guarantees or examples of previous work.
     
  • Compare multiple quotes – Get at least three written quotes to compare scope, paint/finish type, prep work and total cost.
     
  • Inspect the quote details – Look for inclusion of paint type (trade vs premium), surface preparation, number of coats, clean-up and any extras.
     
  • Beware very low quotes – If the price is significantly below average, check what might be excluded (prep work, scaffold, premium finishes, etc).
