What is the average daily rate for a painter in [Location]?

On average, a painter charges __£325 a day__ in the UK, with exact costs depending on experience, job complexity and location. Read more in our [guide to painting and decorating costs](https://www.checkatrade.com/blog/cost-guides/painter-decorator-prices/).

Do I need to be home while the painter or decorator is working?

Not always. If you’re happy with the quote and scope, many homeowners choose to give access and check in at key stages. Just make sure everything is agreed upfront.

What does a painter and decorator do?

A painter and decorator can completely change how a space feels. But it’s not just about slapping on some emulsion. Whether it’s a full flat refresh or a quick tidy-up, decorators bring a level of care, craft and attention to detail that many of us can't achieve on our own. They can: - Prepare surfaces (fill cracks, sand, strip wallpaper) - Paint walls, ceilings, woodwork and exteriors - Apply specialist finishes or hang wallpaper - Recommend colours, finishes and the best products to use

What’s the difference between a painter and a decorator?

A painter focuses on applying paint to walls, ceilings, and surfaces. A decorator can also handle wallpapering, finishes, and more detailed visual design. Many tradespeople do both.

Use [Checkatrade](https://www.checkatrade.com/) to compare rated decorators and painters in your area. You’ll see verified reviews given by Checkatrade customers, photos of recent interior work, and contact details to get a quote, all in one place.

Do I need to move furniture before a painter arrives?

What should I ask a painter or decorator before hiring them?

“We recently had two bedrooms and several doors throughout the house decorated, and we are very happy with the results. From the very first enquiry, Victor was quick to respond and came round to provide a quote. It was clear he is passionate about his work and he gave really helpful advice on the preparation needed to achieve the best possible finish. He worked long, solid hours to get the job completed to a high standard and was always respectful and considerate while working in our home. The quality of the finished work is great, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. Thank you!”

Painters & decorators in Liverpool: Renters vs homeowners

Homeowners

You’re responsible for:

Redecorating rooms
Painting exteriors
Prepping your property for sale or let

And you're generally free to decorate your home however you like. Save all paperwork or guarantees in case issues pop up later.

Renters

Unsure who covers what? Here’s a quick guide:

Repairs or general wear? Talk to your landlord or letting agent first.
Decorating by choice (e.g. new colour)? You’ll likely need written permission, and may need to pay for it yourself.

Most decorators working in Liverpool are happy to provide a quote or write-up to help with landlord approval.
