subject: Tips On Finding Decorators In Wokingham [print this page] Choosing decorators in Wokingham in this day and age is very difficult. Berkshire holds more decorating businesses than anywhere else in the UK. It's so easy now to forget the decorators and just think about doing some DIY yourself especially because of our more demanding time and money constraints.
I'm going to go over a few places on where to find good quality decorators in the Wokingham area of Berkshire. First of all you need to know exactly what it is you need doing, unfortunately in this day and age there are a lot of decorators that are looking to make a quick buck so unless you know exactly what decorating you need doing you may find your tradesmen taking advantage and either over pricing or leading you to believe that there is more work that needs doing than is necessary.
Get the decorators to give you an exact quote for the work and do not let them steer away from it. You could even get them to write it down and sign it, that way they cannot charge you any more than necessary.
Choosing the best local decorators in Wokingham - The best tradesmen that you can choose are those that live very local to you, then if in six months time something goes wrong with the work they have completed, they are only round the corner and can come and fix the problem for you. There are lots and lots of decorators in Wokingham so make sure you ask around to see if your chosen decorator has got lots of testimonials behind them. You could also ask your friends who may have had some work done by someone, word of mouth is probably the best way to find good quality local tradesmen. You can also visit the Wokingham town hall's visitor centre they have lots of information on decorators in Wokingham. Look around online, there are lots of websites dedicated to painters and decorators particularly 'the little green book' a local directory just for the Wokingham area it has a section dedicated local tradesmen.
There is another directory http://www.wokingham-go-local.co.uk that also have an extensive list. Always choose decorators that have either testimonials on their site or references you can call up to make sure they have done a good job.
Checks you should make before booking your decorator:
- Make sure you decorator holds some sort of liability insurance, that way anything goes wrong they will be liable for any damages
- Make sure that when you are quoted the materials involved for the job are also quoted in the price so you don't get any nasty surprises in the final bill
- Make sure the quality of the goods being used is of a satisfactory standard
- Make sure you are happy with the final product before paying the decorators the money for the job.
There are so many cowboys out there these days so it's always good to make sure you do these checks before either agreeing to any work or paying any money at all. Remember you have rights.
