Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our service, pricing and process.

Pricing & Quotes

Enter your postcode to confirm we cover your area, then add your rooms one by one — including wall sizes, ceiling height, and the surfaces you want painted. Our tool calculates an instant estimate based on your location, room condition, and surfaces selected. It takes around 2–3 minutes with no sign-up required. After receiving your estimate you can submit an enquiry and we will follow up with a confirmed quote within 24 hours.

The online estimate is a close guide based on the information you provide, but it is not a binding quote. After you submit your enquiry, we may send a detailed measurement form or arrange a site visit to confirm the final price. The confirmed quote is what you will be invoiced for.

Labour rates vary across the UK, and within each city, costs are higher closer to the city centre due to demand, access, and overhead. Our tool applies a location multiplier based on your postcode — the closer you are to a city centre, the higher the labour rate applied. Outer areas within our coverage zones receive the standard rate.

For larger or more complex jobs where an in-person assessment is needed to produce an accurate quote, we charge a £60 site visit fee. This fee is refunded in full when you confirm your booking. If you choose not to proceed, the fee is retained to cover the cost of the visit.

Decorative techniques including colour blocking, limewash, ombre, striping, and two-tone finishes are excluded from our standard online quote tool. These require a site visit to assess properly. Submit an enquiry via our contact form and we will arrange a visit to discuss your requirements and provide a separate quote.

Booking & Payment

Once you are happy with your confirmed quote, a 50% deposit is required to secure your start date. You will receive a customer service agreement to sign digitally before the job begins. The remaining 50% balance is due on completion of the works, before the decorator leaves the property.

We currently accept payment by bank transfer to the details provided on your invoice. Payment details are included with your confirmed quote and again on your final invoice.

Yes, but cancellation charges apply depending on how much notice you give. More than 7 days before the start date: deposit retained, no further charge. Between 3 and 7 days: deposit retained plus 25% of the remaining balance. Less than 3 days or same day: deposit retained plus 50% of the remaining balance. Full details are set out in your customer service agreement.

We aim to confirm a start date within 24 hours of receiving your deposit. Availability varies by location and time of year, but in most cases we can begin within 1–2 weeks of booking. We will always confirm your start date before processing your deposit.

The Works

All works are carried out by vetted, self-employed painting and decorating professionals. Every contractor we work with is required to hold valid public liability insurance, maintain CIS registration with HMRC, and meet our quality standards before being assigned any job.

Yes. All materials are included in your quote and purchased on your behalf. We include a 10–15% buffer to account for coverage variation. Paint colour selection is your responsibility — our AI colour advisor provides guidance only and does not constitute professional colour consultancy advice.

In the rare event that paint runs out during a job, our contractor is required to stop work immediately, photograph the situation clearly, and contact us before taking any further action. They will not leave the property without notifying both Elevate Finishes and the customer. We will then arrange the next steps with you directly.

Yes. Our quote tool supports commercial spaces including offices, retail units, and communal areas. For large or complex commercial projects, submit an enquiry via the contact form so we can discuss your requirements and arrange a site visit if needed.

Yes. You are responsible for removing or protecting valuables, furniture, and personal items from the work area before the start date. Our decorators will protect floors and fixtures as part of their standard process, but clearing the space in advance helps the job run faster and reduces risk to your belongings.

Quality & Complaints

Genuine defects — defined as missed areas, visible runs or drips, uneven coverage, paint on surfaces not in the agreed scope, or damage caused during works — must be reported in writing within 48 hours of job completion. We will attend to any genuine defect within 5 working days at no additional charge. Dissatisfaction with colour choice, sheen level, or finish preference does not constitute a defect under our service agreement.

Our contractors are paid on a tiered system based on quality and timeliness. If work falls below standard, a portion of the contractor's payment is withheld and passed directly to you as compensation — we do not retain it. This means our contractors have a direct financial incentive to deliver high-quality work on every job.

Yes. Elevate Finishes holds public liability insurance covering all works carried out under our service agreements. Every contractor we engage is also required to hold their own valid public liability insurance with a minimum of £2,000,000 cover before starting any job with us.
