Hi,
I wondered if anyone could help.
What is the going rate for interior painting (emulsion & gloss),
papering,
and general DIY (fixing new skirting etc)?

Area is South East.

Someone has quoted some work for me but I have no basis for
comparison.


Well get another quoted / estimate from another painter and decorator
then, asking someone who has never seen the conditions of your walls
etc to give a price will at best produce a ruff guess and at worst
total fiction whilst asking people to give you a price on a line and a
half of text is plain stupid!...
