Painting & Decorating
in London.
Fresh paint transforms a room more than almost any other job. Done well it looks effortless — straight lines, no bleed, no drips. Done badly you see the mess every day. After fifteen years in London homes, I do it well.

How I work
I work with trade-grade paints — Dulux, Crown, Farrow & Ball, Little Greene — and cut every edge in by hand, not with tape. Wallpaper gets the wall properly prepped first — filler, sand, size — before hanging. Removal with steam, not brute force, so the plaster stays intact. Single rooms to whole houses.
Questions
- How much does painting a room cost?
- It depends on room size, number of coats, prep work and paint choice. A standard bedroom typically takes a day or two. Free written quote after I see the room or photos.
- Do you supply the paint?
- Either way. I can source it for you, or you buy what you want and I apply it. Your choice.
- How long before the room is usable?
- Modern emulsions are touch-dry in 1–2 hours, recoat after 4. I plan coats so the room is usable by evening where possible.
