Frequently Asked Questions
Find quick answers to common questions about our services, how we operate, and how to connect with one of our approved painters and decorators.

What is the UK Painters Association?

The UK Painters Association is a network of approved painters and decorators across the country. We advertise online, collect enquiries from homeowners and businesses looking for painting and decorating services, and pass those enquiries to trusted professionals in their area.

Do you carry out the painting and decorating work yourselves?

No — we don’t carry out the work directly. We’re not a painting company. Instead, we connect customers with local, experienced painters and decorators who are part of our approved network. All work is carried out by those professionals, not by the UK Painters Association.

How do I request a quote?

Simply complete the short enquiry form on our website. Tell us about your project — whether it’s interior painting, exterior work, wallpapering, or something else — and we’ll pass your details on to a local approved painter and decorator who will get in touch to provide a quote.

Are the painters and decorators you work with qualified?

Yes. All of the painters and decorators we work with have been vetted to ensure they are experienced, reliable, and fully capable of delivering high-quality results. Many have years of industry experience and a track record of customer satisfaction.

What areas do you cover?

We work with painters and decorators across the UK. Whether you’re in a major city, a coastal town, or a rural village, we’ll do our best to match you with a local approved tradesperson near you.

Is there a fee to use your service?

No — submitting an enquiry through our website is completely free for homeowners and businesses. You’ll only pay the tradesperson for the work if you choose to go ahead with their quote.

Can I choose which painter or decorator I use?

When you submit your enquiry, we typically match you with a local approved tradesperson based on your location and the nature of the job. If you’d like to compare a few options, you can always request additional quotes or let us know in the form.
