Painters and Decorators in London

If you’re looking for painters and decorators in London, you want more than a quick coat of paint. A professional finish starts with correct preparation, clean lines, and tidy working practices throughout the job. Decorators Builders provides interior and exterior painting and decorating in London, supporting homeowners, landlords and property managers with reliable service and consistent results.

Whether you’re refreshing a single room, redecorating a full property, or preparing a rental for new tenants, we deliver high-quality decorating with clear scope and organised site management.


Interior painting and decorating

Interior decorating should make the space feel cleaner, brighter and more finished — without mess and disruption taking over your home. We focus on preparation first so paintwork looks smooth and lasts.

Interior decorating services include:

  • Walls, ceilings and woodwork painting
  • Surface preparation (filling, sanding, stabilising)
  • Feature walls and colour changes
  • Skirting boards, doors, frames and handrails
  • Repairs and making good before decorating
  • Finishing details and clean edges

If you’re living in the property, we can phase the work room-by-room to reduce disruption.


Exterior painting

Exterior painting is about protection as well as appearance. We carry out exterior decorating with the correct preparation and products to improve durability and weather resistance.

Exterior painting services can include:

  • Exterior walls and masonry paintwork
  • Doors, windows and external woodwork
  • Railings and metalwork preparation and painting
  • Minor repairs and making good before painting
  • Practical advice on coatings and maintenance cycles

We plan around weather and access so the finish is strong and consistent.


Painting and decorating for landlords

Landlords often need speed, reliability and a finish that photographs well for marketing. We provide decorating and refresh works for rental properties, including end-of-tenancy turnarounds.

Landlord decorating services can include:

  • Full property redecorations between tenancies
  • Touch-ups and stain blocking where needed
  • Repairs and making good to walls and ceilings
  • Durable finishes for high-traffic areas
  • Snagging so the property is ready to market

If you manage multiple properties, we can help you keep standards consistent across the portfolio.


Preparation and finishing standards

The difference between “okay” and “proper” decorating is preparation. Our decorating approach focuses on:

  • Protecting floors, furniture and access routes
  • Correct filling and sanding for smooth surfaces
  • Crisp cutting-in and clean edges
  • Consistent colour coverage and finishing
  • Tidy working practices and clean handover

This is what makes rooms look finished rather than “freshly painted”.


Typical decorating projects we handle

Clients commonly contact us for:

  • Full internal redecorations after refurbishment works
  • Staircases and hallways (high-traffic areas)
  • Kitchens and bathrooms (correct prep and durable finishes)
  • Feature walls and modern colour updates
  • Exterior refreshes including woodwork and railings

If your project includes other works (repairs, plastering, carpentry), we can coordinate it so decorating is completed at the right stage.
