I am looking for a reasonably priced painter and decorator who is willing to travel to Walsall.

One of my tenants has a sick child and hasn't got time to decorate her living room because of hospital visits etc. so I have told her that I will pay someone to do it. She already has the paint and paper and it isn't a big room.

Can anyone recommend someone?

You'd be better looking in the Walsall area as anyone from Stafford will charge you for the traveling time. I'm on a waiting list for my guy who's booked up for the next two months and wouldn't recommend anyone but him. I know people who swear by the 'trust a trader' website so that might be worth a look, and to be fair you can't get much wrong with a tin of paint and a brush.

It isn't that far if you hop on the M6. I have already had one quote and he lives in Cannock but he is way too expensive he wanted over £300. She only wants one wall papering and the other 3 painting, the skirting and doors are fine. Also if he does a good job I will keep using him for all my houses.

I might go over and look at the room myself to get a better idea because I have only spoken to her on the phone.

I didn't realise the painter had left me a message asking if the price was ok. I'll ring him later and ask him why it is so expensive.
