What This Service Includes
Our painting and decorating service covers every aspect of interior and exterior property finishing. From full house repaints and period property restoration to single feature walls and ceiling work, we handle projects of every scale with the same meticulous attention to detail.
This service is designed for homeowners across South London and Surrey who want a lasting, professional finish without the stress of managing multiple tradespeople. Whether you are preparing a property for sale, refreshing a tired interior, or protecting your home's exterior against the British weather, we deliver results that speak for themselves.
Professional painting and decorating is not a luxury — it is a practical investment. The correct preparation, the right materials, and skilled application mean your walls, woodwork and exterior surfaces look better for longer, saving you money on frequent touch-ups and repaints. A DIY job may seem cheaper upfront, but incorrect preparation leads to peeling, cracking and uneven coverage within months.
We work with premium brands including Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, Dulux Trade, and Crown Trade. Every project begins with thorough surface preparation — filling, sanding, priming, and dust sheeting — because the preparation is what separates a professional finish from an amateur one.
Examples of Our Work
What Happens When You Wait Too Long
Delaying painting and decorating work does more than affect how your home looks. It can lead to real, measurable damage that costs significantly more to repair later.
Timber Rot and Structural Damage
Exposed or peeling exterior paintwork allows moisture into timber frames, fascias and window sills. Left untreated, this leads to rot that requires full replacement rather than a simple repaint.
Damp and Mould Growth
Cracked or deteriorating interior finishes allow moisture to penetrate walls. This creates conditions for mould growth, which affects air quality and can trigger respiratory problems for your family.
Reduced Property Value
Estate agents consistently report that freshly decorated properties sell faster and for higher prices. Tired, dated décor signals neglect to potential buyers and can reduce offers by thousands.
Escalating Repair Costs
A wall that needs a simple repaint today may need full replastering in twelve months if the underlying surface continues to deteriorate. Early action saves money every time.
Our Proven Process
Free On-Site Survey
We visit your property, assess every surface, discuss your colour preferences, and provide a detailed written quote — no vague estimates or hidden extras.
Surface Preparation
We strip old wallpaper, fill cracks and holes, sand surfaces smooth, apply stabilising solutions where needed, and mask off all areas with dust sheets and tape. This stage takes longer than the painting itself, and it is the most important.
Priming and Undercoating
Every surface receives the appropriate primer — whether it is bare plaster, new timber, or a colour change requiring a blocking coat. This ensures even absorption and true colour representation.
Application
We apply two to three coats using the correct technique for each surface — brush, roller or spray. Cutting in is done by hand for precision edges around coving, skirting and window frames.
Final Inspection and Handover
We inspect every surface under multiple lighting conditions, touch up any areas that need attention, remove all protective sheeting, and leave your property clean and ready to enjoy.

Interior Painting and Decorating
Our interior service covers all wall and ceiling painting, woodwork finishing (gloss, satin and eggshell), radiator painting, coving and cornice decoration, and specialist finishes. We work with emulsions for walls and ceilings, and oil-based or water-based trim paints for doors, architraves, skirting boards and window frames. For period properties, we use breathable paints such as lime wash and clay-based formulations that allow historic walls to regulate moisture naturally.
Exterior Painting and Decorating
Exterior work includes masonry painting, render coating, timber treatment for fascias, bargeboards and window frames, front door restoration, and weatherproof coatings. We use flexible masonry paints that bridge hairline cracks and prevent water ingress, along with microporous woodstains that allow timber to breathe while repelling moisture. All exterior projects begin with pressure washing or hand cleaning to remove algae, moss and loose material before any paint is applied.
Paint Systems and Materials
We match the paint system to the substrate and environment. For high-traffic hallways and children's rooms, we use scrubbable matt emulsions that withstand cleaning without marking. For kitchens and bathrooms, we apply moisture-resistant formulations that prevent condensation damage. On exterior timber, we use high-build microporous systems that flex with seasonal expansion and contraction without cracking.
Residential vs Period Properties
Modern homes and period properties require fundamentally different approaches. Modern plasterboard walls accept standard primers and emulsions, while lime plaster in Victorian and Edwardian homes needs breathable paint systems. We understand these differences and specify the correct materials for every substrate. Using modern vinyl emulsions on historic lime plaster traps moisture, causing bubbling, flaking and long-term damage to irreplaceable original surfaces.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from homeowners across South London and Surrey.
How much does it cost to paint a room in Wimbledon?
A standard single room (walls and ceiling) typically costs between £350 and £600 depending on size, condition and the number of coats required. We provide an exact written quote after our free on-site survey so there are no surprises.
How long does it take to paint a 3-bedroom house?
A full interior repaint of a 3-bedroom house typically takes 7 to 10 working days including full preparation. Exterior work varies depending on the property size and condition, but most exterior projects are completed within 5 to 8 days.
Do you move furniture?
Yes. We move all furniture to the centre of the room or out of the room entirely, cover everything with dust sheets, and return it once the paint is fully dry. We treat your belongings as if they were our own.
What paint brands do you use?
We work primarily with Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, Dulux Trade and Crown Trade. We are happy to use any brand you prefer and can advise on the best product for each surface and environment.
Do you offer a guarantee?
Yes. All work comes with our 5-year workmanship guarantee covering peeling, cracking or blistering caused by our application. We also offer a 12-month touch-up service for any minor scuffs or marks that appear.
Can you work while I am living in the house?
Absolutely. We work room by room to minimise disruption, use low-odour paints where possible, and maintain a clean, tidy workspace throughout. Most clients continue their normal routines during the project.
Do you provide colour advice?
Yes. We offer a free colour consultation as part of every project. We can recommend colours that work with your lighting, furnishings and personal style, and provide sample pots so you can see options on your actual walls.
Are you insured?
Fully. We carry £5 million public liability insurance and employer's liability cover. Certificates are available on request.
Do you paint exteriors in winter?
Exterior painting requires dry conditions and temperatures above 5°C. We schedule exterior work during appropriate weather windows and will never apply paint in conditions that would compromise the finish. If weather delays a project, we communicate proactively and reschedule promptly.
What areas do you cover?
We are based in Wimbledon and cover all of South London and Surrey including Croydon, Kingston upon Thames, Sutton, Epsom, Guildford and Woking.
