Meet the Team Behind Hampstead Painting Company

Behind every beautifully decorated home in Hampstead, Highgate, Muswell Hill, and the surrounding areas of North London is a team of skilled, experienced professionals. At Hampstead Painting Company, we take pride in the people who deliver our work — their expertise, their approach, and the care they bring to every project. Here is an introduction to the team.

Our Founding Philosophy

Hampstead Painting Company was founded on a straightforward idea: that homeowners in North London deserve painters and decorators who combine genuine craft skill with professional reliability. Too many homeowners had experienced the frustration of contractors who quoted low, started late, and delivered mediocre results. We set out to do the opposite — to be the team that turns up when we say we will, communicates clearly, and delivers a finish that the homeowner is proud of years later.

That philosophy shapes everything about how we work. We do not subcontract our jobs to unfamiliar teams. Every project is carried out by our own employed decorators, supervised by a senior team member who is accountable for the final result.

Our Decorators

Our core team of painters and decorators brings a combined experience of over forty years in the industry. Several of our team trained through formal apprenticeships and hold NVQ qualifications in painting and decorating. All are experienced in the specific demands of North London's architectural heritage — the Victorian and Edwardian terraces, Georgian townhouses, Arts and Crafts villas, and modernist apartments that define our working area.

Our decorators are specialists in:

• Interior painting and decorating: Full room redecorations, whole-house programmes, wallpaper hanging, specialist finishes, and colour consultation — the core of our residential work across NW3, N6, N10, N2, and NW11.
• Exterior painting: Masonry and render, exterior timber, sash windows, front doors, ironwork, and heritage coatings — carried out with the preparation and product knowledge that exterior durability demands.
• Sash window restoration: One of our most valued specialist services, restoring original sash windows to working order with appropriate paints and draught-proofing, preserving the character of period properties across Hampstead and Highgate.
• Kitchen cabinet painting: Spray-applied kitchen cabinet painting using specialist primers and topcoats that transform tired kitchen cabinetry without the cost of replacement.
• Heritage coatings: Breathable paints and mineral coatings for lime plaster walls, traditional masonry, and listed buildings — using Edward Bulmer, Earthborn, Keim, and Little Greene products.

How We Work

Every project begins with a free, detailed site visit and written quotation. We take time to understand exactly what you want to achieve — the colours, the finish, the timeline, and any specific concerns about your property. We advise on product choice, colour scheme, and preparation requirements before you commit to anything.

During the project, we keep your home clean and orderly. Furniture is moved and dust-sheeted, floors are protected, and at the end of each working day the property is left tidy and accessible. We communicate proactively — if anything unexpected arises, you will hear about it promptly, not at the end of the job.

Our Guarantee

We guarantee our workmanship. If anything is not right within the first 12 months of completion — any adhesion failure, missed areas, or defects in our application — we return and rectify it at no charge. This guarantee is backed by the care we put into preparation, the quality of the products we use, and the pride our team takes in every project they complete.
