Painting & Decorating
Painting and decorating is one of the most varied of the trades. Our specialist craftsmen know every aspect of it. As well as the normal painting with modern emulsions we use a wide variety of paints including lime wash which we mix a shade ourselves, clay paints and all different types of staining we also have a trained fine artist on our books that can re-touch. Our trustworthy team are directly employed by us and are well versed in all types of painting, paper hanging, wood finishes and other specialist finishes.
External Decorating
Our experts know the best approach to restoring the look of your period property and our methods are continuously evolving. For external lime render, for example, we used to always apply a traditional limewash.
Now, however, we regularly recommend a silicate masonry paint. These paints provide all of the benefits of a traditional limewash, in particular being fully breathable, but also have additional benefits such as being much longer lasting. Due to the fact these paints are a new development they can be quite expensive, however, they provide a beautiful finish, require fewer coats and long-term, prove more economical.
