How pricing works in Ilminster.
No price lists that pad the worst case — your Ilminster project gets its own honest, fixed, written quote. These are the factors that set it:
Size & surfaces
How many rooms or walls, ceiling heights, and whether woodwork and ceilings are included.
Condition & prep
Cracks, old wallpaper, flaking paint or bare plaster — honest prep needs, priced up front.
Paint & access
Trade paint choice (or supply your own), and anything needing ladders, towers or scaffold.
Finishes matched to every surface.
Kitchens need different paint to bedrooms; woodwork needs different paint to walls. For your Ilminster project we spec the right finish for every surface — and explain why.
Prep is our obsession.
Cracks filled and sanded flat. Gaps caulked so lines stay crisp. Stains blocked, bare patches primed, old wallpaper stripped properly — not papered over. It's slower, and it's the only way your Ilminster project keeps looking sharp for years. If a wall needs plastering rather than paint, we'll tell you honestly.
Spray finishes: kitchens, doors & uPVC.
A sprayed finish transforms tired kitchens, front doors and uPVC windows in Ilminster for a fraction of replacement cost.
Kitchen spraying
Cabinet doors, frames and end panels resprayed in any colour — a new kitchen look without the rip-out.
uPVC windows & doors
White to anthracite (or any colour) with 10-year coating systems, sprayed on site.
Furniture & garage doors

Do I need plastering or just filling?
If damage is localised — a few cracks or holes — filling and sanding is cheaper and we'll say so. Widespread cracking, blown patches or heavy texture usually mean a skim is the honest fix. Send photos and we'll tell you straight.
How soon can new plaster be painted?
Typically 4–7 days depending on conditions, and it must be mist-coated with watered-down emulsion first. We build that into the schedule so the paint finish lasts.
Can you get rid of an artex ceiling?
Yes — over-skimming is the standard, safe approach and leaves a flat modern ceiling. Older artex can contain asbestos, so we never sand it; skimming seals it safely.

All of it — Ilminster (TA19) is fully inside our patch, along with Ilton, Chard, South Petherton, Merriott. If you're on the border of two areas, don't worry: the same local team covers both.
