Our answers to your questions
Look at our FAQ pageWhat does a residential job actually include?
Moving and sheeting the furniture, filling and sanding, sealing bare plaster, two full coats, and putting the room back the way we found it. Skirtings, architraves and ceilings are in the price unless the quote says otherwise — we would rather write a bigger number than argue about a smaller one later.
Can you work around a business that has to stay open?
Most of our commercial work happens between six in the evening and six in the morning, in sections, with everything sheeted and cleared before the doors open. We have done four floors of an office on Independence Avenue without a single working day lost.
Are the paints low-odour and safe around children?
Every interior colour in our own collection is water-based, low-VOC and effectively odourless within a couple of hours. Nurseries and clinics get the anti-mould emulsion as standard, at no extra cost.
What happens if something goes wrong afterwards?
Interior work is guaranteed for five years and exterior for three, in writing, against flaking, blistering and colour failure. If it lifts, we come back and redo that elevation — no argument about whose fault the wall is.
