To decorate the main bedroom of a bog standard, bay windowed, terrace house.

Currently the walls and woodwork are cream and will be painted white. Prep work to the woodwork has already been done. The ceiling is not being painted...

This is a rented room.

Can anyone have a guess?

I'm just very curious after a phone call I just received...

Price....sorry...lol
Hi, if you are not painting the ceiling and it is already painted white then the chances are that it will look more of a cream or yellow after doing the walls.
Give up. How much?
Question Author
£215...

From my BIL to decorate my cousins bedroom.

I think that scandalous!!!
I'd do it for about £350 I'm guessing the quote is nearer £1000
£215 is fairly cheap, i was thinking £300+!
Sounds good... got to be at least a couple of days work not unreasonable at all on that basis....friend was quoted £1300 for a one bedroom flat not including kitchen and bathroom just for emulsion and a coat of gloss...
2 coats = 2 days = average £100 per day labour charges.
What?! I would be thinking more £100!

Seems a bit steep for family!

You think that's cheap...? I don't....
had my whole house painted a couple of years back, rooms worked out to about £150 each including walls, all woodwork and ceiling, all prep work and materials and paint.
maybe it's local pricing but yes that is cheap...
Question Author
Now that's reasonable Ankou. As this doesn't include any prep, or the ceiling, and it's family....shocking.
Who on earth in our family does painting?
But it wouldn't even take that long, craft. It sounds the same as my lounge (Victorian terraced) and I painted that in one night!
Some people don't care whether it's family or not, just out to make a quick buck. i had the same with my uncle. Totally ripped me off for a bit of fencing! If I can, I always do it myself.
