Complete Home Redecorations
A consistent finish throughout your home.
Whether you're renovating, moving into a new property or simply ready for a complete refresh, we can manage the decorating throughout your home from preparation through to the final finish.
Larger projects often involve far more than applying new colours. We'll assess existing surfaces, repair defects, prepare walls, ceilings and woodwork correctly, and advise on suitable products and finishes where needed. The result is a consistent standard from room to room, with one team taking responsibility for the complete decorating project.
Typical work includes: whole-home redecorations, renovations, multi-room projects, hallways, stairs and landings, walls, ceilings, doors and woodwork.
-

Interior Decorating
Beautiful interiors built on careful preparation.
From individual rooms to substantial multi-room projects, our interior decorating service combines thorough preparation with carefully applied finishes.
We take time to address cracks, damaged surfaces, failing previous coatings and imperfections before decorating begins. Floors, furniture and surrounding areas are carefully protected, and we'll advise on appropriate paint systems and finishes to suit both the room and the way it's used.
Typical work includes: living spaces, bedrooms, kitchens, hallways, ceilings, walls, doors, skirting and architectural details.
-

Exterior Decorating
Protecting your property as well as transforming it.
Exterior decorating needs to do more than look good. The right preparation and coating system helps protect your property from weathering and keeps the finish performing for longer.
We work across rendered elevations, exterior timber, doors and architectural features, taking the time to prepare each surface appropriately before applying suitable exterior finishes. Where timber can be restored rather than simply covered, we'll advise on the best approach.
Typical work includes: rendered elevations, exterior woodwork, front doors, windows, timber restoration and complete exterior redecorations.
-

Staircases & Woodwork
Bringing detail and character back to your home.
Staircases and architectural woodwork are often some of the most detailed areas of a decorating project, and achieving a really good finish relies heavily on preparation.
We undertake everything from staircase redecorations to the restoration and refinishing of doors, frames, architraves, skirting, handrails and other timber features. Where previous coatings have failed or movement has caused cracking, we'll address the underlying problem wherever possible rather than simply covering it.
Typical work includes: staircases, spindles, newel posts, handrails, doors, architraves, skirting and detailed interior woodwork.
-

Wallpaper & Feature Walls
Precision where every detail matters.
Wallpaper can completely change the character of a room, but the finished result depends just as much on the condition of the surface beneath it.
We carefully prepare walls before installation and work with everything from understated papers to bold feature designs. Wallpaper can also be incorporated into larger decorating projects alongside complementary paint colours, woodwork and bespoke features to create a cohesive finished space.
Typical work includes: feature walls, full-room wallpapering, statement designs and wallpaper incorporated into larger interior schemes.
-

Bespoke Panelling & Furniture
A furniture-quality finish for bespoke features.
Bespoke joinery deserves the same level of attention as any other feature in your home.
We prepare and hand-finish fitted wardrobes, cabinetry, MDF furniture and decorative wall panelling, working alongside trusted trades where necessary to deliver complete transformations. Bare MDF and newly installed joinery are taken through the appropriate preparation, priming and finishing stages to create a smooth, durable result.
Typical work includes: fitted wardrobes, cabinetry, shaker-style furniture, bespoke wall panelling and other painted joinery.
