What we paint in Fowey.
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.
Garden timber
Fences, sheds, decking, pergolas and garden furniture, stained or painted.
Exterior surfaces
Render, masonry, cladding, fascias and front doors — weatherproofed properly.

Emulsion finishes for every room — matt, silk and durable scrubbable paints.

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.

What decorating really costs in Fowey — and how to get your fixed quote.
See prices guidePlastering and Skimming in Fowey — FAQs.
Do I need plastering or just filling?
If damage is localised — a few cracks or holes — filling and sanding is cheaper and we'll say so. Widespread cracking, blown patches or heavy texture usually mean a skim is the honest fix. Send photos and we'll tell you straight.
How soon can new plaster be painted?
Typically 4–7 days depending on conditions, and it must be mist-coated with watered-down emulsion first. We build that into the schedule so the paint finish lasts.
Can you get rid of an artex ceiling?
Yes — over-skimming is the standard, safe approach and leaves a flat modern ceiling. Older artex can contain asbestos, so we never sand it; skimming seals it safely.
How much should I budget for plasterers in Fowey?
Every job is priced individually on size, surface condition and finish. Send a few photos of your Fowey property on WhatsApp for a free fixed quote — usually the same day, with no hidden extras.
Are you insured to work in Fowey?
Yes — every job in Fowey is carried out by decorators with public liability insurance. Need documentation for a landlord, agent or building manager? Just ask and we'll provide it.
Do you cover Fowey?
Yes — our local decorators cover Fowey (PL23) and the surrounding area, including Polruan, Par, Saint Blazey, Lostwithiel. Same-week slots are often available.
