Plaster, paint and decorate £1300

kae0r

Just had some work done and was wondering if it was a fair deal?

Work complete:

1 room (6x8): re-skimmed all 4 walls , pipes boxed in, coved and 2 coats of paint
1 room (10x10): coved, pipes boxed in, re-painted

Materials included (paint, coving etc)

My feeling is OK but high end. Appreciate your input.

Ta :T

does it matter if you're happy. In time to come you won't remember the money but will be content to live with a room well done.

It depends on where you live, but as someone who is still in the process of getting my home fully renovated & decorated, I'd say it's not too bad compared to what I've been paying out for work around the place.

If it was done by somebody you trust, then it's worth paying that little bit more to be sure you'll get a good job done & that they are trustworthy. Far better than taking a chance on somebody you found via local paper or internet who may well be cheap, but do a pretty rubbish job.
