I was considering using this service after recieving some direct marketing from F&B, I didn't realise they charged £175 for the service though.

Has anyone used this? If so, was it worth the price?

I'm looking to paint my hallway & I'm trying to branch out from white. In the past I've used Fired Earch paints alot as they do good off whites such as passion flower....any tips?

The chap in our local F&B is utterly uninspiring, disinterested and dismissive. He told me once he didn’t know anything about their wallpapers! I’d be horrified to put my hand in my pocket to pay for his advice 😱

The website/Pinterest normally shows colour combinations and then I have it colour matched elsewhere.

We used the F&B service and they gave us an in-store discount off some paint. They do up to 3 rooms for the fee of £175.

The colours they suggested were perfect, we bought one colour to get the price reduction then went to B&Q and got the Valspar service to colour-match it at a fraction of the price!!

I used them and they were fantastic. But I then went and bought the paints from b&q. Gave me some great ideas and I went with colours I would not have picked without their guidance.

This is great, thanks all - seems like it would definitely be worthwhile!

I love farrow and ball. Have it in every room in the house.
If you have a showroom near you, pop in for advice. X

Hi did anyone use the F&B consultancy service recently? I’m thinking of using it just wondered weather it’s worth the £200 when my whole house is currently white I bet I end up going a different shade of white again 😩
thank you
