Everything that arrives is read. Pick the desk that fits and it reaches the right person faster.

Which desk

Who you are writing to

Guides are developed and re-tested by our team; reader mail is answered by the editorial desk. We work remotely, so email is quicker than any other channel. Please do not send the same message to several desks.

Before you write about a job

Include the page title or URL, the age and construction of the surface or the ingredients and equipment you used, and what you already tried. If a problem keeps returning, the answer is usually diagnosis – a local professional who can see it will help faster than we can.

Postal address

DIYDecorLab is operated as a publishing business. A registered postal address for legal notices is required before most ad networks will verify the site; it will appear here once the company registration details are finalised. Until then send postal matters to [email protected] and we will acknowledge in writing.

Response times

Two working days for advertising and legal mail, up to a week for reader messages. When writing about your personal data, include enough detail for us to find the record – we may need to verify your identity first.
