Sheen, durability, washability — the right finish depends on the room. Here's the quick guide we use when speccing your Sydenham project.
What we paint in Sydenham.
Inside and out, big and small — if it takes paint, stain or paper, it's our job.
Woodwork and trim
Skirting, doors, frames, windowsills, stairs and banisters in satinwood or gloss.
Kitchens and cabinets
Sprayed factory-smooth finishes that transform kitchens without replacing them.
Garden timber
Fences, sheds, decking, pergolas and garden furniture, stained or painted.
Walls and ceilings
Emulsion finishes for every room — matt, silk and durable scrubbable paints.
Exterior surfaces
Render, masonry, cladding, fascias and front doors — weatherproofed properly.
Prep is our obsession.
Cracks filled and sanded flat. Gaps caulked so lines stay crisp. Stains blocked, bare patches primed, old wallpaper stripped properly — not papered over. It's slower, and it's the only way your Sydenham project keeps looking sharp for years. If a wall needs plastering rather than paint, we'll tell you honestly.

See prices guideDecorators in Sydenham — FAQs.
How much do decorators charge?
Every room is different — size, condition and how much finishing work is involved. Send photos and a rough idea of what you want on WhatsApp and we'll come back with a free fixed quote.
What's the difference between a painter and a decorator?
A painter applies the paint; a decorator plans and finishes the whole room — colour scheme, wallpaper, mouldings and the small details that make it look professionally done. We offer both, so you get one team for the complete job.
Do decorators also hang wallpaper?
Yes — feature walls, whole rooms or a full strip-and-repaint, whichever suits the space. Send photos on WhatsApp and we'll advise the best approach along with a free fixed quote.
Do you cover the rest of Lewisham?
Yes — Sydenham is part of our coverage across the London Borough of Lewisham, alongside New Beckenham, Bell Green, Perry Vale, Penge and Cator. One local team, one standard, across the whole borough.
Do you cover Sydenham?
