We handle surface repair, sanding, priming, cutting-in and final coats so the finish is flat, even and built to last — not just rolled over. Who it's for — Homeowners refreshing tired rooms, families moving in, landlords preparing properties for new tenants, and businesses redecorating offices, retail and hospitality interiors. When you need it — When walls look patchy, scuffed or yellowed; before selling or letting a property; after building works, replastering or damp repair; or when you simply want a colour change done properly. Why professional help matters — DIY rolling without correct prep, primer choice and cutting-in shows within weeks: roller marks, flashing, lifted edges and patchy sheen. Professional interior painting eliminates those defects and lasts 7–10 years. If You Leave It ## Tired interiors silently lower how a home feels every single day — and cost thousands off resale value when buyers walk in to scuffed skirting, yellowed ceilings and uneven walls. ### Risks of waiting - Poor prep means peeling, cracking and patching within 12 months - Wrong paint sheen highlights every imperfection under daylight - Bleed-through from old stains ruins fresh white ceilings - Cheap masking lifts paint off skirting boards on removal ### Common DIY mistakes - Painting straight onto fresh plaster without a mist coat - Skipping caulk on cracked architrave and skirting joins - Using contract matt where wipeable mid-sheen is needed - Cutting in by eye instead of taping crisp lines Our Process ## A clear 5-step system, every job Step 1 ### Free On-Site Survey We measure rooms, inspect surfaces, agree colours and confirm a fixed all-in price in writing — usually within 48 hours of your call. Step 2 ### Protection & Prep Furniture moved and covered, floors fully sheeted, sockets masked. Filling, sanding, caulking and priming completed before any topcoat goes near a wall. Step 3 ### Cut-In & Roll Crisp brushwork around ceilings, sockets and woodwork, then rolled in even passes with the right nap for a flat, mark-free finish. Step 4 ### Second Coat & Inspection Full second coat once dry, then walked through under daylight and lamp light to catch any pinholes, missed cuts or sheen variation before sign-off. Step 5 ### Clean Down & Handover Dust sheets removed, room reset, floors hoovered, paint tins labelled and left for future touch-ups. Workmanship guarantee issued in writing. Why It Pays Off ## What you actually get ### Lasts 7–10 Years Trade paint plus correct prep means no peeling, no flashing, no patch-painting in 12 months. ### Faster Than DIY A full bedroom is typically completed in a single working day with two coats, fully cleaned. ### Wipeable Finishes Mid-sheen and washable matts in kitchens, hallways and kids' rooms shrug off scuffs and stains. ### Zero Mess Floors, sockets and furniture protected; rooms cleaned and reset every evening. ### Fixed Price Quoted in writing before we start — no day-rate creep, no extras invented mid-job. ### Fully Insured Public liability cover on every job for total peace of mind in your home. Specification & Method ## The detail behind a finish that lasts Interior painting done correctly is 70% preparation, 30% application. The materials and methods below are what separate a finish that lasts a decade from one that fails in a year. ### Materials we use - Trade emulsion (Dulux Trade, Crown Trade, Tikkurila) for walls and ceilings - Water-based satinwood and eggshell on woodwork — non-yellowing, low-odour - Stain-block primer for water marks, nicotine and tannin bleed - Drywall sealer / mist coat on fresh plaster before topcoats - Decorator's caulk and lightweight filler for cracks and joins ### Methods that matter - Sand-fill-sand routine on every wall before priming - Brush cut-in then roll wet-edge-to-wet-edge to avoid flashing - Two full coats minimum on every surface — never one thick coat - Frog Tape on crisp lines, not standard masking tape ### Variations of this service - Single feature wall with colour design consultation - Full room redecoration including ceilings and woodwork - Whole-house redecoration co-ordinated room by room - Pre-sale and pre-let neutral repaints for fast turnaround ### When clients call us - After plastering, damp treatment or building work - Before viewings on a property going to market - Refreshing tired rentals between tenancies - Updating colour schemes after a renovation ### Residential vs commercial Residential interior work is scheduled around family life — typically 8am–4pm with full clean-down each evening. Commercial interiors are usually run out-of-hours so businesses don't lose trade.
