I’ve been trying to find the definitive answer to this question and failing.

Are we allowed to have painters and decorators in the house at the moment?

Yes you are. Keep the windows open, if you like, for better Covid safety. And you could ask them to wear masks.

Yes, we've had a stove fitted during this lockdown 😊

Yes this is fine, tradespeople and cleaners etc are still allowed to work in your home, you all need to take the right precautions.

You are allowed but do you want to?
We have postponed a couple of non urgent projects until we feel a bit more comfortable with having people in the house
Everyone need to decide their own comfort levels though so if you are happy to do it then go for it

Yes

It’s to skim a room and wallpaper one wall. I didn’t plan to have it done till the Easter holidays so that none of our DCs need to be homeschooling and we can sort of shut them off in another part of the house.

It was just a comment my sister made me worry.

Thank you all!

If you are in Scotland the guidance is different. This would be classed as non-essential and would be against the current guidance as the property is occupied.

Not Scotland. Sister is in Scotland which is she commented.

Yes, our guidance is often a little bit stricter than England. I've been buying paint and just getting on with it since I don't know when we will be able to get the decorators in. Thankfully I don't need to have any plastering work carried out.

I've got a decorator in at the moment, I'm in England. He is prepping, papering and painting downstairs room.

Yes, people are legally allowed to work in your house.
