Hi,
Had a bit of a windfall so can afford to get my house in York painted but the painter says he can't fit me in until beginning of October.
I'm no decorator but sounds a bit late to me. Should I wait until next year?
Tell him to stuff it and find one that can do the job, your paying the bill remember.
Is there only one painter / decorator in York?
The painters with a good reputation are probably already fully booked up for the summer. The crap ones however....
Ask around and check out the quality of peoples work. One of our local decorators carries a dirty great photo album around with him to show prospective customers his workmanship. It's unlikely you'll book him until next year!!!
As long as you can avoid frost and rain for the duration of the job, the time of year shouldn't have much bearing on a properly done job.
Yes, and I'm bloody busy at the moment.
You don't get much frost in York.
Rain, however ... :-(

Yeah but I bet you can get Morse though. :-)
LOL
It had to happen, sooner or later :-)

That's why decorators' merchants sell a lot of pliolite masonry paint in the autumn. (I'm told that if it's been on the wall more than 15-20 minutes it won't get washed off by rain.)
