Whole-home repaints, wallpapering & finishing
Painting & Decorating in Galway
More than a coat of paint — full decorating, wallpapering and finishing to transform a whole home. Free, no-obligation quote from an experienced local decorator.
Full decorating, room by room
Painting and decorating is the bigger picture — not one room, but a whole home brought together with a consistent finish, fresh colours and the details done properly. Maybe you've just moved in and want the place your own before the furniture arrives, or you're finally tackling the whole house after years of meaning to. Either way, it's a job that rewards planning and a decorator who works through it methodically rather than dashing from room to room.
Galway Painters connects you with an experienced local painter and decorator who can take on the whole property — walls, ceilings, woodwork, wallpaper and all. We don't do the work ourselves; we match you with the right person and stay your single point of contact from the first quote to the last room finished. It's the straightforward way to get a big decorating job done without living in chaos for weeks. (021) 204 0227
What painting & decorating covers
- Whole-home repaints — every room brought up to the same standard, planned in a sensible order so you can still live in the house while it's underway.
- Wallpapering — feature walls and full rooms, from prepping and lining the walls to hanging and trimming patterned or textured paper cleanly.
- Walls, ceilings and woodwork — the full interior package, cut in sharp and finished consistently throughout.
- Coving, mouldings and details — the finishing touches that make a decorated home feel complete.
- Preparation and repair — filling, sanding, caulking, sealing stains and stripping old paper so every surface is ready.
- Colour scheming — help pulling a whole-house palette together so it flows from room to room.
How a whole-home decorating job runs
The secret to a big decorating job is sequence. A good decorator plans it so the work moves through the house in a logical order — usually finishing one zone before opening up the next, so you're never living in a building site from top to bottom. Rooms are cleared and protected, then prepared thoroughly: old wallpaper stripped, walls filled and sanded, cracks and gaps caulked, and any stains or bare plaster sealed.
From there it's ceilings, walls and woodwork in each room, with wallpapering fitted in where it's part of the plan — walls lined first for a smooth base, then paper hung to match patterns and butt-join seams so they all but disappear. Because it's a whole-home job, the decorator keeps colours and finishes consistent across the property while tailoring each room to how it's used. At the end, every room is reinstated and checked with you.
What it costs in Galway
A full decorating project is priced on the number and size of rooms, the amount of preparation, whether wallpapering is involved, and the standard of finish you're after. Individual jobs across Galway typically fall in the €550–€2,360 range (average around €950), but a whole-home repaint is a larger project and is quoted as a package after the decorator walks the property. That visit — and the written quote that follows — is free and puts no obligation on you.
Every job is different, so the best way to know what yours will cost is a quick, free look from the painter — no guesswork and no obligation. Once they've seen the work, the surfaces and the access, you'll get a clear written price to compare at your leisure. There's never any pressure to go ahead, and the quote is yours to keep whether you book the work now, later, or not at all.
