If you have searched for a painter and decorator near me, you will know there is no shortage of names to choose from. The harder part is working out who will actually turn up, do a tidy job and charge a fair price. After more than 25 years decorating homes across West Sussex, here is how we would suggest choosing the right painter and decorator near you.
Choose local for more than convenience
A local painter and decorator understands the area, the common property styles and the weather that paintwork has to survive. Being nearby also means it is easy to call in for a quick look, and easy to come back if anything needs attention after the job is finished. Based in Henfield, we cover roughly a 20 to 25 mile radius across West Sussex, so most of our customers have us close to hand.
Check independent reviews
Verified, independent reviews tell you far more than a glossy advert. Look for consistent comments about reliability, cleanliness and finish quality. We are rated 10 out of 10 on Checkatrade from nearly 200 reviews, and most of our work still comes through recommendations.
Make sure they are insured
Painting and decorating often involves working at height on stairwells, fascias and exterior walls. A professional should be fully insured, so you are protected if anything goes wrong. Never be afraid to ask.
Ask for a clear, written quote
A trustworthy decorator will give you a free, no obligation quote with the price set out clearly and no hidden extras. We offer both day rates and per job rates, and we will recommend whichever suits your project best.
Look at real examples of their work
Photos of genuine, completed jobs are a good sign. Take a look at our gallery to see recent projects across the county, including before and after transformations.
