What we do

Decorating for London homes, flats and the people who let them.

Victorian terraces in Clapham, riverside apartments in Nine Elms, landlord turnarounds on a deadline — the prep is the same either way, and the prep is where the finish comes from.

Service · Interiors

Interior painting

Full rooms or a whole house, worked in an order that keeps the place liveable while we're in it.

  • Walls, ceilings and coving
  • Skirting, architrave and doors
  • Kitchens, bathrooms and hallways
Service · Exteriors

Exterior & masonry

Render, brick, render coats and joinery, prepared properly so the next repaint is years away, not months.

  • Sash and casement windows
  • Front doors, porches and railings
  • Rendered and pebbledashed elevations
Service · Paper

Wallpaper hanging

Patterned, plain, grasscloth or heavy-duty vinyl — lined first, matched properly, seams where they belong.

  • Feature walls and full rooms
  • Lining paper on tired plaster
  • Careful strip-out of old paper
Service · Spray

Woodwork & spray finishing

A sprayed finish on doors, wardrobes and kitchen units — flat, even and free of brush marks.

  • Fitted wardrobes and units
  • Kitchen door respraying
  • Staircases and balustrades
Service · Prep

Repairs & surface prep

Cracks, dents, blown plaster and old woodchip dealt with first. Paint hides nothing, so we don't ask it to.

  • Filling, sanding and caulking
  • Patch plastering and skimming
  • Damp-stain blocking and sealing
Service · Trade

Landlord & commercial

Void turnarounds, HMOs, offices and communal areas — scheduled around tenancy dates and working hours.

  • Communal halls and stairwells
  • Offices, shops and studios

How it works

Four steps, in this order, every time.

You call or send the form

Tell us the rooms, the property and roughly when you want it done. We call back the same day where we can.

We visit and measure up

Free, no pressure. We look at the surfaces, flag anything that needs repairing, and talk colours if you want the help.

You get a fixed written quote

Itemised by room, with the number of coats, the products and the start date. That's the price you pay.

We decorate and clear up

Sheets down, edges masked, work done to schedule. We walk the job with you before we hand it back.

Areas covered

Based at SW8 1RH. Working 12 miles in every direction.

That's most of central and south London, out into Surrey and the western suburbs. If you're near the edge of the list, call and ask — we travel for the right job.

Before you call

The questions we get asked most.

How much does decorating cost?
It depends on the size of the rooms, the condition of the surfaces and how many coats they need. A tired room that wants filling, sanding and two coats costs more than a repaint of sound walls. That's why we visit first and give you a fixed written price per room rather than a rate per day.
Do you charge for the quote?
No. The site visit and the written quote are free, and there's no obligation afterwards. If the price doesn't suit, that's fine — you'll still have an itemised breakdown you can compare against anyone else's.
How long will my job take?
A single room is usually one to three days depending on the prep. A full house repaint is typically one to three weeks. We give you the number of days in the quote and tell you straight away if anything on site changes it.
Can I stay in the house while you work?
Yes, and most of our customers do. We work room by room, keep dust sheets down and put furniture back at the end of each day so you always have somewhere to sit and something to cook in.
Do you supply the paint, or do I?
Either. Most people let us supply it so we can get trade prices and the right product for the surface, and it's itemised in the quote. If you've already bought yours or you want a specific heritage colour, that's no problem at all.
Do you cover my area?
We're based at SW8 1RH in Nine Elms and cover roughly 12 miles in every direction — central London, most of the south and south-west, out to Kingston, Croydon, Bromley, Richmond, Ealing and Epsom. Call with your postcode and we'll confirm on the spot.
Are you insured?
Yes — we carry public liability insurance and can send you the certificate before we start. TODO: confirm cover amount and accreditations with the client.
