Exquisite Craftsmanship
for London's Finest Homes

We primarily use premium brands such as Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, Mylands, Dulux Heritage, Benjamin Moore, Keim, and Earthborn. We also work with Papers & Paints, Graphenstone, and other specialist heritage or eco-friendly brands depending on the substrate and project requirements.

Yes, we offer free, no-obligation estimates. We will visit your property to assess the scope of work and provide a detailed written quote within 24-48 hours.

The duration depends on the size and complexity of the project. During our initial consultation, we will provide a timeline and keep you updated on our progress throughout the job. Single rooms typically take 2-3 days; full houses 1-3 weeks.

We ask that you remove small, fragile items. Our team is happy to help move larger furniture pieces and will ensure everything is completely covered and protected before we begin.

Absolutely. We carry £10 million in Public Liability Insurance for your peace of mind.

For a typical 3-bedroom Victorian or Edwardian house in NW3 or North London, a full interior redecoration (walls, ceilings, woodwork) ranges from £5,500 to £12,000 depending on condition, ceiling height, number of coats required, and paint brand. We provide detailed written quotes with no hidden costs. Contact us for a free, no-obligation estimate.

Exterior painting costs in NW3 typically range from £3,500 to £10,000 for a standard semi-detached or terraced house, or £8,000 to £22,000 for a large detached property. Factors include scaffold requirements, number of storeys, substrate condition, and paint specification (standard masonry paint vs. Keim silicate for period properties). We carry scaffolding costs in our quotes.

In NW3 and the wider North London area, experienced painters and decorators typically charge £250–£400 per day. We quote by project rather than day rate, which gives you certainty on final cost. Our project quotes include all materials, preparation, protection, and cleanup.

Wallpaper hanging in NW3 typically costs £400–£800 per room for standard wallpaper, plus the cost of the wallpaper itself. Luxury or complex papers (grasscloth, hand-blocked, Cole & Son, de Gournay) may cost more due to the care and expertise required. All we ask is that you confirm the number of rolls before we quote so we can assess the pattern-matching requirements.

Limewash is a traditional, breathable paint made from calcium hydroxide. It is the historically correct coating for pre-1919 properties with solid lime-plastered walls. Unlike modern acrylic paints, limewash allows moisture vapour to pass through the wall, preventing damp problems and blown plaster. We specialise in limewash application for Hampstead's Victorian, Edwardian, and Georgian properties.

Keim is a German mineral silicate paint developed in 1878. It works through silicification — the potassium silicate binder reacts chemically with the masonry substrate to form a permanent, mineral bond. The result is a vapour-permeable, UV-resistant finish that does not peel, chip, or fade, and can last 20–30 years without repainting. We are approved Keim applicators and use Keim Granital for exterior facades across NW3.

Yes, we have specialist decorative finishes craftsmen experienced in Venetian plaster (marmorino), polished plaster, and related techniques including microcement and tadelakt. These finishes transform entrance halls, feature walls, and bathroom interiors. We are based in NW3 and serve all of Hampstead, Belsize Park, and North London for specialist decorative finishes.

Yes — in most cases, full restoration is entirely achievable and preferable, particularly in conservation areas where uPVC replacement is either prohibited or inappropriate. We replace broken sash cords, splice in new timber where rot has occurred, install draught-proofing brush seals, and refinish with microporous paint. This typically costs 20–40% of the cost of replacement windows and looks far better.

In almost all cases, yes — particularly for solid timber, in-frame, or high-quality MDF kitchens. Professional kitchen respraying or artisan hand painting delivers a completely fresh appearance for £1,000–£4,000, compared to £15,000–£100,000 for a luxury kitchen replacement. The key is proper preparation: we degrease, sand, prime, and apply minimum two topcoats of furniture-grade lacquer. Our painted kitchens regularly last 8–15 years before needing a refresh.

HVLP spray painting produces a perfectly flat, factory-quality finish with zero brush marks — ideal for modern shaker or slab-door kitchens. Artisan hand painting produces a slightly more textured, characterful finish using specialist furniture brushes — ideal for traditional in-frame kitchens by Plain English, Tom Howley, or bespoke cabinet makers. We offer both methods and will recommend the most appropriate during our assessment.

Absolutely. We colour-match all Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, Mylands, and Benjamin Moore shades in our furniture lacquers. Popular kitchen colours in NW3 currently include Farrow & Ball Railings (charcoal), Farrow & Ball Hardwick White (soft classic white), and Farrow & Ball Mole' Breath (sophisticated warm grey). We provide colour advice as part of our free quotation visit.

Yes. We specialise in zero-VOC and low-impact decorating using Earthborn Claypaint (EU Ecolabel certified, no acrylics or vinyl), Graphenstone (natural lime plus graphene, carbon capture), and Keim mineral silicate (entirely mineral, no synthetic binders). These are our preferred choices for nurseries, children's bedrooms, and for clients with respiratory sensitivities or a commitment to reducing indoor air pollution.

Dust-free sanding uses Mirka CEROS electric orbital sanders directly connected to HEPA vacuum extractors, capturing 99.97% of particulate matter at source before it enters the room. This eliminates the clouds of dust associated with traditional preparation work, protecting your HVAC systems, fine furnishings, artwork, and soft goods. It also means you can remain at home comfortably during preparation stages. We use dust-free sanding as standard on all our projects.
