Your painting and tiling questions.
Practical answers for planning a Walthamstow or East London project. The final quote and specification depend on your actual home and surfaces.

Read the detailsWhat should I send for a quote?
Include your area, rooms or surfaces, approximate dimensions, photographs, product choices if known and preferred timing. Mention stairs, parking, building rules and whether rooms are occupied.
Read the detailsHow much does painting or tiling cost?
Preparation, size, access, products and detailing affect the price. This website has no verified fixed price list. Ask for a written job-specific quote with the scope, materials and exclusions.
Read the detailsWill the quote include preparation and materials?
Check the written scope. Ask who handles removal, repairs, protection, materials, waste and access equipment. Do not assume two quotes cover the same work just because they describe the same room.

Explain which rooms and facilities must remain usable. Agree furniture movement, protection and the order of rooms with us before booking. Product drying times and access can affect the plan.

You can send samples and product details to start the discussion. Confirm suitability, quantities, preparation, layout and who supplies the materials before ordering.
Read the detailsCan new plaster be painted immediately?
Let the plaster dry and follow the selected paint manufacturer’s preparation and first-coat instructions. Drying conditions vary; avoid treating a generic number of days as a specification.
Read the detailsCan you tile over existing tiles?
Sometimes, but the existing bond, background, added thickness and intended use need assessment. In a wet area, the existing waterproofing and any defects also matter.
Read the detailsCan a cracked tile be repaired on its own?
Sometimes, if a suitable matching tile is available and the surrounding installation is sound. Recurring damage can indicate a problem underneath, so the cause and repair scope need assessment.
