Surfaces

Plastering & Surface Preparation

Perfect plasterwork provides the foundation for beautiful decorating. We skim over existing plaster, repair cracks and damage, and ensure every surface is properly prepared before painting begins.

Surface evaluation is a critical first step — We identify issues like damp, loose plaster, or underlying damage that needs addressing. This attention to preparation is what ensures a finish that lasts.

Wallpapering & Lining Paper

Expert wallpaper hanging with sharp seams, perfect pattern matching, and no bubbles. we handle everything from stripping old wallpaper to installing new designs, including specialist papers and feature walls.

Lining paper is often overlooked but makes a huge difference — it smooths imperfect walls, provides a better surface for paint, and can even help with insulation when using thermal lining.

Finishing Touches

Handyman & Installation Services

Those finishing touches that complete your project. We remove radiators for proper wall access, rehang picture frames and mirrors, install curtain rails and blinds, and apply fresh silicone sealant in bathrooms and kitchens.

These small jobs often get left behind after decorating, but they're what make a house feel finished. we handle them as part of a complete project or as standalone work.
