What we paint in Charlton.
If a brush, roller or spray gun can reach it, we finish it properly.
Garden timber
Fences, sheds, decking, pergolas and garden furniture, stained or painted.
Wallpaper
Hanging, pattern matching, stripping and lining — feature walls to whole houses.

What decorating really costs in Charlton — and how to get your fixed quote.
See prices guidePeriod Property Decorating in Charlton — FAQs.
How much does period property decorating cost?
It depends on the level of detail and the condition of original features. Share a few photos of the rooms over WhatsApp and we'll work up a free fixed quote for you.
Why can't you use normal modern paint on my Victorian walls?
Standard sealed emulsions can trap moisture in lime plaster and older masonry, leading to blistering and damp problems. We use breathable paints designed for older buildings instead.
Can you match a heritage colour for a listed building?
Yes — we work with heritage and conservation-approved paint ranges and can match specific shades where planning or listed building consent requires them.
How much should I budget for period property decorators in Charlton?
Every job is priced individually on size, surface condition and finish. Send a few photos of your Charlton property on WhatsApp for a free fixed quote — usually the same day, with no hidden extras.
Can I book an evening or weekend slot in Charlton?
Yes — we work 7 days a week, and out-of-hours slots are standard for Charlton businesses and busy households alike.
Do you cover Charlton?
Yes — our local decorators cover Charlton (SE7) and the surrounding area, including Westcombe Park, Kidbrooke with Hornfair, Blackheath Royal Standard, Woolwich Common. Same-week slots are often available.
