What we do

  • Full repaints of houses and flats: walls, ceilings, skirting, doors and frames
  • Feature walls and bold colour schemes
  • Woodwork, spindles and banisters
  • Kitchen and bathroom redecoration
  • Refurbishments combining decorating, carpets and floors and wall panelling

Preparation is the job

A good finish is ninety per cent preparation. We fill and sand, caulk gaps, mist-coat new plaster, and protect floors and furniture before any paint goes on. You'll get crisp lines, an even finish and a house left clean and tidy at the end of each day.

Whole-flat refurbishments

We've handled complete refurbishments of city centre flats, from new carpets and treated wooden floors to a full repaint of walls, ceilings and skirting, plus re-decking the balcony. One team, one point of contact, one finish date.

Smaller jobs too

We also take on smaller jobs while we're with you, such as mounting TVs, fitting blinds and putting up fencing. Just ask when you get your quote.

Above and beyond

Thank you Luke for a job well done 👏 Very polite and efficient, above and beyond even fitting in an extra job. Very pleased with our TVs on the wall and fitting a blind. 😀 👍

No corners cut

Luke was professional from start to finish. From the initial quote all the way through to the end of the job I was consistently communicated with, the work area and house always kept tidy, and he even helped us think of solutions to areas we didn’t have ideas for. Everything finished to an exceptional standard with no corners cut. I cannot recommend Luke further if you are looking for someone reliable and professional to complete your interior works.

Full flat refurbishment

We recently worked with Luke on the refurbishment of our city centre flat, and we couldn’t be happier with the results so far. He handled the complete update of our 2 bed flat, including fitting new carpets in both bedrooms, re-decking the balcony, treating the wooden floors, and a full repaint of the entire flat—walls, ceilings, skirting, everything. He also took care of a number of smaller jobs always with a high level of care and attention. His communication was outstanding – quick, clear, and always helpful. He often responded within the same hour. He is knowledgeable and has a great deal of experience – he helped us making the right decisions. Luke truly went above and beyond, and we’re very happy with the results. Highly recommended – thank you again!

Painting and interior projects

We recently had the pleasure of working with Luke on painting and a few interior projects around our home, and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. Luke was professional, punctual, and extremely detail-oriented throughout the entire process.

Whether it was fixing fittings, or offering design suggestions, Luke was hands-on, knowledgeable, and always ready to help.

What I appreciate most is his positive attitude and willingness to go the extra mile to ensure everything turned out just right. I highly recommend Luke to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality interior work.

Thanks Luke!!
