Choosing the right colour is as important as the quality of the painting itself. Our in-house colour specialist visits your home, assesses the light, and builds a bespoke palette — at no extra charge.
A thorough, unhurried assessment of your home — from the quality of light to the character of the architecture — so the final palette feels effortlessly right.
Light is the single most important factor in how a colour reads on a wall. We assess each room at different times of day — noting north-facing shadows, south-facing warmth, and the colour temperature of your artificial lighting — before making any recommendation.
Rather than choosing colours room by room, we design a cohesive whole-house palette that flows naturally from hall to kitchen, bedroom to bathroom. Colours are selected to complement one another and to suit the architectural period of your home.
Many properties in Hampstead, Belsize Park, and Primrose Hill are Victorian or Edwardian in character. We hold deep expertise in period-appropriate palettes and can reference original paint analyses, archive records, and specialist heritage colour ranges to ensure authenticity.
We order and apply physical tester patches in your home so you can live with the colours before committing. We apply at least two coats in a large swatch, next to your skirting boards and in natural daylight — because a tiny chip card never tells the full story.
Our colour consultants work with every major premium paint brand. We carry no brand allegiance — only a commitment to finding the right finish for your home.

From first contact to finished palette proposal, the process is straightforward and entirely led by your vision for the home.
Contact us by phone or through our quote form. We will arrange a convenient time to visit your home — usually within five to seven working days. The consultation is fully free and carries no obligation.
Our colour specialist spends up to 90 minutes at your property, walking every room, noting the light quality, existing features, and your stylistic preferences. We bring a full library of paint samples from Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, Mylands, Papers & Paints, and Edward Bulmer.
Within 48 hours of the visit we send a written palette proposal: colour names, paint houses, finishes (matt, eggshell, satinwood), and tester pot recommendations for each room. We are on hand to refine the palette until you are completely happy.
Everything you need to know about our colour consultation service.
Yes — our colour consultation is fully complimentary when you book a full interior or exterior painting project with us. There is no hidden charge and no obligation to proceed after the initial visit.
A typical home consultation lasts between 60 and 90 minutes. Larger properties or those requiring a whole-house palette may take up to two hours. We work at your pace and never rush the process.
Not at all. We work with the full range of premium paint houses — including Mylands, Papers & Paints, Edward Bulmer Natural Paint, Keim, and Dulux Trade. Our advice is led entirely by what is right for your home, your lifestyle, and your budget.
Absolutely. Matching paint to existing joinery, flooring, upholstery, and architectural features is one of our specialities. We bring physical sample chips and order tester pots so you can see colours in your own light before committing.
