Painters and decorators in Solihull: Homeowners vs renters

If you own your home

Decorating decisions are down to you. You won’t need permission for interior work, but if your property is listed or in a conservation area, check with your local council before painting the exterior.

If you rent

Speak to your landlord before picking up a paintbrush. Most contracts ask for permission, especially if you’re going for bold colours or wallpaper. The good news? If it’s basic maintenance, they may even cover the cost.
