SWMBO wants the hall stairs and landing decorated. I am not opposed to DIY decorating but I am not good with planks, ladders and the like when it comes to the long drops down the stairway. It is a fairly normal hall (10' x 6') with a straight staircase and a landing at the top (12' x 4'), the ceilings are normal height i.e. not the high old type. She wants it wallpapered and I am not confident enough to do the stairs off of a ladder and plank etc. (plus I haven't got a plank)! The wallpaper will have a match (35cm) and the ceilings will be white emulsion. There are 8 doors and a loft hatch to gloss and all the relevant architraves and stair runners. The carpet will not be down as she wants a new one!! I appreciate you haven't seen it but can somebody give me a ball park figure for a decorator to do this job, just so I know if the decorator I ask isn't pulling a fast one? I did think about hiring a tower of some sort but thought the money would be better off put towards a proffesional job and also it would be done quicker.
Cheers
