Will a decorator fill cracks?
Yes, filling cracks and preparing surfaces is a standard part of most decorating services to ensure a smooth, flawless finish.
Should I hire a painter or paint it myself?
Hiring a professional can save you time and ensure a high-quality finish, especially for complex projects or high ceilings. If you’re considering a DIY approach, weigh the complexity of the job against your skills and the time you can dedicate.
