From one bedroom to a whole house, we paint walls, ceilings and woodwork, and we'll leave your home clean and tidy as though it was our own. Customers often tell us their rooms look transformed: one February 2026 review says the walls look smooth and fresh and the whole space feels completely transformed.

Hallways, stairs and landings

Halls, stairs and landings come up again and again in our reviews: walls, ceilings, spindles, handrails, skirtings and doors, worked around the stairs and finished neatly. We've also stained banisters to match the ones on the floor below.

Repairs before we paint

A good finish starts underneath. We fill and repair walls, ceilings and woodwork before we paint, and plastering and coving are on our list too. One customer's ceiling, holed and patched after a shower leak, was repaired and painted over: “Would never know hole had been there,” they wrote.

Colours and finishes

Not sure which colours or finishes to go for? Customers often mention our suggestions on colours, finishes and paint. If you've already chosen, even colours other decorators tried to talk you out of, we'll paint them for you.

Questions

Common questions

Do you protect my furniture and floors?

Yes. We keep everything clean and protected while we work, and customers mention that we leave rooms neat and tidy at the end of each day.

How long does it take to decorate a room?

It depends on the room and what it needs, and we'll talk it through when we come to see you. Two examples from our reviews: a large bedroom painted and wallpapered in 3 days, and a living room stripped, skimmed and painted over three days.

Can you repair walls and ceilings before painting?

Yes. We fill and repair walls, ceilings and woodwork before we paint. One customer's ceiling, holed and patched after a shower leak, was repaired and painted over, and they wrote: “Would never know hole had been there.”

Can you help me choose colours?

Yes, if you'd like us to. Customers often mention our suggestions on colours, finishes and paint, and we're just as happy to use colours you've already chosen.
