Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can I start this Painter Decorator job in London E15?
We pride ourselves on speed. For compliant candidates with all documents ready (Right to Work, ID, relevant cards), we can often facilitate a start within 24-48 hours of your initial application. The"ASAP Start" label is a genuine reflection of our clients' urgent needs.
Do I need my own tools and transport?
For this and most painting roles, yes. We expect professional painters to have their own basic toolkit (brushes, rollers, trays, scrapers, sanding blocks, etc.). You are also expected to have reliable transport to get to sites in and around London E15 on time. Some larger sites may provide specialist spray equipment.
Is a CSCS card mandatory?
For the vast majority of construction sites in London, a valid CSCS Card is a mandatory requirement for health and safety compliance. While not always a legal requirement, it is a client requirement for 95% of our roles. If you don't have one, we can advise you on the quickest route to obtaining the correct card.
What is the difference between temporary and temp-to-perm?
A temporary role has a fixed end date or is ongoing but with no direct promise of permanent hire. Temp-to-perm means you start on a temporary contract with the agency (Labourer Agency), and if both you and the client are happy after a agreed trial period (e.g., 12 weeks), you have the option to transfer to a permanent contract directly with the client company. Many of our roles offer this pathway.
How and when do I get paid?
You will be paid via PAYE directly by Labourer Agency. You submit your timesheets weekly (usually by Monday morning). We then process payroll, and you will receive your wages, minus tax and NI, into your bank account every Friday. Holiday pay is accrued and paid separately.
Does Labourer Agency have other types of work outside of painting?
Absolutely. We are a full-service staffing agency for the construction, hospitality, events, and industrial sectors. While we are currently highlighting Painter and Decorator in London E15 roles, we also actively place Kitchen Assistants in Bristol BS34, CSCS Labourers, Carpenters, Bricklayers, and event staff across the UK. Registering with us opens doors to a wide range of opportunities.
