About us

A small team that takes the job personally

Schneider Improvement is run by Sebastian Schneider from Neilston. We have been painting and decorating homes around Glasgow since 2011 — long enough to know that the difference between a good job and a great one is in the preparation and the last ten percent.

Most of our work comes from people who have used us before, or their neighbours. That only happens if you turn up when you say you will, keep the place clean and leave a finish you are proud of.

FAQ

Questions we get asked

How much does it cost to paint a room in Glasgow?

It depends on the size of the room, how much preparation the walls and woodwork need, and whether ceilings, doors and skirtings are included. We price every job after a free visit and send a written quote, usually within 24 hours. For a rough idea before we come round, try the free calculator and Glasgow price guide at paintingquotation.com.

Do you ask for a deposit?

No. You pay when the job is finished and you are happy with it.

Which areas do you cover?

Glasgow and the West of Scotland: East Renfrewshire (Neilston, Barrhead, Newton Mearns, Giffnock, Clarkston), Renfrewshire (Paisley, Renfrew, Johnstone, Erskine), Inverclyde (Greenock, Port Glasgow, Gourock, Inverkip) and the towns around Glasgow. If you are not sure, just ask.

How quickly can I get a quote?

Get in touch by phone, text, email or the form and we reply the same working day to arrange a visit. After the visit you get a written quote, usually within 24 hours.

Are you insured?

Yes, we are fully insured, including public liability. Method statements and risk assessments are available on request for commercial work.

How long does it take to paint a room?

A standard room is usually refreshed in a day. Rooms that need a lot of filling, sanding or wallpaper stripping take longer, and we will tell you how long when we quote.

Do you protect furniture and floors?

Yes. We cover floors and furniture, keep the place tidy while we work and clean up before we leave.

Can you help us choose colours?

Yes. When we visit we can talk through colours and finishes for the room, the light and how the space is used.

Do you work evenings or weekends?

For commercial clients, yes: we can work evenings and weekends so your business keeps running. Our office hours are Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm and Saturday 9am to 3pm.
