Site Visit & Quote
Everything starts with a visit. The job gets looked at properly before any numbers are given. The quote is written up based on what is actually there.
Windlesham is one of those places where you get a mix of property types within a short distance. Larger detached homes with plenty of space, some older cottages tucked away on quieter roads, and newer houses that are still settling in. Each one needs a slightly different approach when it comes to decorating.
Blue Egg Décor has been working as a painter and decorator in Windlesham for over 30 years. It’s the same person carrying out the work from start to finish. No handovers, no subcontractors. The quote is done in person, the preparation is done properly, and the job is seen through to the end without cutting corners.
These aren’t just numbers – they represent thousands of hours of workmanship, preparation and care.
Windlesham comes up regularly in the work schedule. Some jobs are single rooms that need refreshing. Others are full interiors done over a longer period. Quite often it’s repeat work, coming back to the same house to do the next room or being recommended to someone nearby.
Most of the decorating services in Windlesham are carried out while people are still living in the property. That’s the reality of it. Work has to fit around daily life. Rooms need to be left usable where possible, tools kept out of the way, and everything kept under control rather than spreading through the whole house.
There’s also a fair bit of variation in the surfaces. Some older properties have layers of paint built up over time, sometimes done without the right prep underneath. Newer homes are usually more straightforward but still need checking before anything goes on. The process stays the same regardless.
Arrives when agreed. No vague start times or days that never materialise. If the schedule changes for any reason, you hear about it in advance.
No surprises on the quote. Everything discussed during the site visit goes into writing. If something unexpected comes up during the job, it gets flagged and talked through before anything changes.
Preparation is not skipped. Filling, sanding, priming. It takes longer than just rolling paint straight onto the wall, but it is the difference between a finish that lasts and one that does not.
Tidy throughout. Dust sheets down before starting, tools put away at the end of each day, rooms left in a state that people can actually use.
Consistent from first day to last. The quality of the work does not change depending on how far through the job you are. Every coat gets applied the same way.
All services listed below reflect the work regularly carried out in Windlesham and the surrounding area.
Walls, ceilings, hallways and larger open spaces. Some homes need a full redecoration, others just bringing back up to standard. Everything is looked at properly before deciding how to approach it.
Skirting boards, doors, frames and stair parts. Older paint layers often need working back before anything new goes on to get a clean, even finish.

Windlesham sits slightly differently to some of the surrounding areas. There are plenty of larger detached homes, often set back a bit more from the road, along with older cottages and properties that have been extended over time. A lot of the work here comes down to dealing with surfaces that have been built up over the years, not always consistently, which only really shows once you start preparing them.
There are also newer developments around Windlesham where the finish tends to be cleaner to start with, but they still need checking properly before any decorating begins. The expectation on those jobs is usually a sharper, more modern look, which is a different kind of detail to get right compared to older properties.
Access is generally straightforward, but the size of some of the houses means the work needs to be planned properly before starting. Larger rooms, higher ceilings, more woodwork. It all adds up. The site visit is where that gets worked out so there are no surprises once the job is underway.
A lot of the work in Windlesham ties in with jobs across the surrounding residential areas. It is quite common to be working locally over a period of time rather than just coming in for a single job and not returning.

Things that come up before most jobs get booked.
It depends on the size of the job, the condition of the surfaces and how much preparation is needed before any paint goes on. A straightforward room is very different to a job where previous decorating needs correcting first. The quote is done after a site visit and put in writing.
A single room in decent condition is usually a couple of days. Larger properties or jobs with more preparation can take longer. The timescale is discussed properly at the visit so you know what to expect before the work starts.
Filling, sanding, priming and general making good are all part of the job. A lot of surfaces need more work underneath than people expect, especially where rooms have been redecorated a few times over the years. That preparation is included from the start.
Yes. Most jobs are carried out while people are living in the house. That means keeping the work area under control, protecting floors and furniture properly, and leaving things tidy at the end of the day.
Occasionally. Most work is domestic, but smaller commercial properties do come up from time to time. It depends on the job and the timing, so it is worth asking.
Windlesham and the surrounding area. If you are nearby it is still worth getting in touch, especially for larger jobs or repeat work across the same local patch.
No. Furniture is moved and protected as part of the job, and floors are covered before work starts. There is no need to strip the room out beforehand.
