Process & pricing

A London decorating process that keeps the important decisions visible.

A finished room is easier to enjoy when the sequence is clear before the work begins. This is how Alba & Ash Decorating approaches each project.

01

Look at the actual surfaces

We discuss the rooms or elevations, access, light, existing coatings and the timing that needs to work for your London property.

02

Write a usable scope

Your estimate states preparation, materials, finish areas and assumptions. We build each London decorating estimate around the room condition, protection work, access and paint system — never a generic square-metre figure.

03

Protect, prepare and paint

We organise the work zone, protect fixed surfaces, repair and prime where required, then apply the agreed paint system.

04

Review and hand over

Your written scope explains the workmanship guarantee available for the specified coating system before work begins. We review the completed scope and leave you with practical care information.

What your estimate covers

Pricing with a reason behind it.

We do not use one-size-fits-all prices for a London house painting project. The written estimate identifies the condition observed at survey, the protection needed, the preparatory work, the product system and the expected sequence. If a choice can alter cost, it is explained before work starts.
