Hi
What is the current day rate you would expect a painter decorator to charge in the West Midlands?
My father in law is a painter decorator by trade but has only done part time weekend painting jobs for the last 10 years as he has a full time job doing something else during the week. We have recently had some building work done and our builder has asked my father in law to do a few decorating jobs as he saw him doing our decorating and was impressed with his speed and finish.
He is good at what he does but is not sure what day rate he should charge the builder or whether he should price each job as a whole. He's a bit out of touch with current prices but doesn't want to under sell himself or over charge and lose out.
Anyone willing to offer some pricing advice I can pass on to him?
Thanks.
