Why Choose Cotswolds Decorators
Outbuilding Assessment

Written Quote
The decorator provides the price and scope directly. Ask for a written quote that states cleaning and preparation, repairs, primer and finish system, coats and curing, and hardware or access exclusions before you agree the work.
Fully Insured
Ask your decorator to confirm current public-liability insurance before you agree the work.

The Shed Painting Process
1. Assessment
Ask the decorator to inspect the material, moisture and coating condition, repairs, access and compatibility of the proposed finish and note anything that changes preparation or access.
2. Preparation
The written scope should state the preparation for the material, moisture and coating condition, repairs, access and compatibility of the proposed finish, including any repairs that are excluded or need another trade.
3. Priming
Name the primer or first coat for the identified shed material and existing coating. Any adhesion test and application should follow the product instructions.
4. First Coat
Agree the coating system and application method in writing. Drying and recoating should follow the product instructions and site conditions.
5. Final Coat and Inspection
Agree what will be checked at handover and raise any scope-related points directly with the decorator before the work is signed off.
