How Bath Decorators Works
Bath Decorators connects Bath homeowners with a trusted local decorator. Tell us about the job and we’ll match you with the right decorator for your area — one we know and rate.
From the first site visit to the written quote, the work, and the guarantee that backs it, everything is handled directly between you and your decorator. We make the introduction and stay on hand; they do the work and stand behind it.
Interior Preparation
Front-bay rooms and hallways are assessed from their actual surfaces, light and requested scope.
Bay Window Front Rooms
Where a room has a deep bay, its soffit, reveals, surrounding walls, orientation and moisture signs are checked before preparation is proposed.
Timing and performance vary with the checked scope, conditions, selected system, current product guidance, use, and maintenance.
Hallways and Stairs
Finish options for skirting boards, doors, banisters and handrails are compared for the identified surface, use and current product guidance.
The coating is selected for the surface and expected use.
Bedrooms and Kitchens
Bedroom quotes list the included ceilings, walls, woodwork and any chimney-breast feature separately.
Kitchen primer and finish coats are specified after the surface, ventilation, and intended use are checked; performance varies with preparation, product, application, use, and maintenance.
Skirting Boards and Woodwork
Where coating build-up is significant, the decorator records any removal, sanding, undercoat and finish proposed. See kitchen cabinet doors for the related service.
The intended preparation and finish for profiles and door panels are stated without guaranteeing a visual outcome. For solid wood or MDF kitchen cabinet doors, the decorator checks the substrate and existing finish before proposing a preparation and coating method.
Exterior Preparation
Timber condition, paint build-up and any repair needs are checked before preparation is agreed.
Rendered Bay Fronts and Side Walls
The decorator records cracks, hollow areas and poorly bonded sections before deciding whether local decorating preparation or separate render repair is needed.
Any crack treatment, repair dependency and primer are specified after the render, movement and selected coating system are checked.
Timber Sash Frames
The decorator checks the timber and existing coating before specifying preparation, repair and primer.
Sash movement is checked at handover and any remaining binding or joinery issue is recorded.
Fascias, Soffits, and Front Doors
Fascia and soffit finish options depend on the checked timber, existing coating, exposure and current product guidance. Any repair outside the decorating scope is identified separately.
Front-door preparation and finish options are proposed after the door, existing coating, exposure and intended use are checked.
Surface Preparation Standards
Loose material is removed and agreed cleaning, filling, sanding or local repair is completed before primer or finish coats. See exterior painting for the related service.
Scope and price for exterior painting depend on the checked surface condition, preparation and access.
The written quote records the render, selected compatible coating system and specified finish coats.
Here’s How It Works
1. Site Visit
The decorator inspects the included surfaces, access and existing coatings, then discusses the requested finish before preparing the quote.
2. Agree the Project
Your decorator confirms exactly what’s included: which rooms, which surfaces, which finishes. Provide any target date before quoting; the decorator will confirm what is achievable after checking the scope, access and availability.
3. Preparation
The quote records any cleaning, sanding, filling and primer proposed after the surfaces and existing coatings are checked.
4. Finish Coats
The sequence for included walls, ceilings and woodwork is agreed from access, products and drying requirements. Handover checks are recorded against the agreed scope after the finish coats have cured.
5. Inspection and Touch-ups
The decorator completes the agreed handover check with you and discusses any remaining item against the written scope.
6. Clear Up and Leave
Clear-up, protection removal, waste responsibility, access restrictions and return-to-use timing are agreed in the written plan.
Tell Us About the Job
Furniture protection, access and any excluded surfaces are recorded before preparation starts.
What Affects the Quote
Call to arrange the visit. Call to discuss the scope.
Condition of Existing Decoration
The written quote records the checked surface condition, preparation, selected scope, and price. Textured ceilings, thick gloss on woodwork, and wallpaper that needs stripping all add time.
Number of Rooms and Surfaces
A full house redecoration and a selective refresh are priced from their separately checked rooms and surfaces. Priorities can be agreed against the available budget.
Finish and Paint Choice
Product prices vary by range and specification; the written quote records the selected system and price after compatibility and finish requirements are checked.
Primer for bay-window returns is selected after the surface, moisture, existing coating and product guidance are checked; the selected primer and its price are recorded in the written quote; performance depends on ventilation, surface condition, preparation, application, use, and maintenance.
What Shapes the Quote
- Interior decorating: included rooms, walls, ceilings, woodwork and preparation are itemised.
- Interior decorating: optional areas, protection and access allowances are separated in the quote.
- Decorating work: included surfaces, preparation, access and finish are recorded.
- Colour options are discussed against the room, available light and any confirmed restrictions.
Preparing Existing Surfaces
Cleaning, filling, sanding and spot priming are included only where the checked surfaces need them.
