What affects the cost of a decorator?
The two biggest factors are the size of the job and the amount of prep required. A freshly plastered room with smooth walls is fast to paint. A room with years of poorly-applied paint, cracks, and old woodchip wallpaper will take considerably longer — and that prep time has to be priced in.

How to get an accurate quote
The only way to get an accurate quote is an in-person visit. Any decorator who gives you a firm price over the phone without seeing the job is either guessing, or will find reasons to revise it upward once they arrive.
