Decorating
A fresh coat of paint transforms a property. Professional painters covering everything from quick rental refreshes to full redecorations — proper prep, trade-quality materials, clean results.
A fresh coat of paint is one of the most cost-effective ways to transform a property. Our in-house decorators handle everything from quick between-tenancy refreshes to full redecorations — always with thorough surface preparation, trade-quality materials, and clean, consistent results. We use Crown Trade and Dulux Trade paints as standard and can accommodate any colour preference. All woodwork, skirtings, and doors are included unless otherwise agreed.

Common Questions
FAQs
A 1-bedroom flat redecoration (walls, ceilings, woodwork) typically starts from £350–£500. A 2-bedroom property is usually £500–£750, and a 3-bedroom house from £700–£1,100 depending on condition and scope. Single-room repaints start at £180–£280. We provide a fixed quote before any work starts — no hourly rates or surprises.
Across the UK painting a single bedroom (walls, ceiling and woodwork, two coats) typically costs £180–£300. A larger lounge or master bedroom is £280–£450. Lincoln pricing tends to sit at the lower end of UK averages. Standard quotes include trade-grade paint, prep, fillers, masking, two coats, and clean-up.
UK painter and decorator day rates typically range from £180 to £280 per day, but most professional decorators (including LWR) prefer to quote per job rather than per day so the customer knows the total cost upfront. Our project quotes effectively work out cheaper than buying day labour because we price the job at completion, not by time spent.
A typical 1-bed flat takes 1–2 days. A 2-bedroom property takes 2–3 days. A 3-bedroom house is usually 3–4 days. We can often start within a week of quoting and can fast-track urgent void turnarounds for landlords and letting agents.
Yes. We use Crown Trade and Dulux Trade paint and include it in the quote. White and magnolia are standard; if you have a specific colour or finish preference, just let us know — colour matching is included at no extra charge.
We use trade-grade matt emulsion on walls and ceilings as standard — it gives a clean, durable finish that's easy to touch up. For woodwork we use a satinwood or gloss finish. We can also provide silk or vinyl silk for higher-traffic areas, and eggshell for a contemporary look on woodwork.
Yes. We can colour match from existing paintwork or work from a specific paint code (Dulux, Crown, Farrow & Ball, etc.). Just let us know when you book.
Yes. Wallpaper stripping and surface preparation is available as an add-on. We assess the walls after stripping and can skim or re-plaster if needed before painting.
Yes — this is one of our most common jobs. We work with letting agents and landlords across Lincoln on quick void turnarounds, often combining the repaint with end of tenancy cleaning, flooring and small repairs in a single coordinated visit. One contractor, one invoice, no chasing.
We cover all of Lincoln (LN1–LN6) including the city centre, Bracebridge Heath, Birchwood, Ermine, North Hykeham, Cherry Willingham, Welton, Nettleham, Branston and Washingborough. Outside the city we cover Sleaford, Newark, Gainsborough, Grantham, Market Rasen and Horncastle without travel charges.
