Painters and decorators in Paisley

Paisley has every kind of home a decorator meets: sandstone tenements and villas with tall rooms and plaster cornices, post-war houses, and new-build flats with plasterboard throughout. Each wants its own preparation, which is why we look before we price.

Decorating in Paisley

In older flats that means checking the plaster is sound and dry. In newer ones it is more often failed plasterboard joints, nail pops and the thin contract paint the builder left. Either way the repair is listed in the quote as its own line.

What we do

Inside and out

01

Interior painting

Rooms, halls, stairs and landings painted, from one feature wall to the whole flat.

02

Doors, frames & skirting

Woodwork takes the knocks in a home, so it needs proper preparation: cleaned down, sanded, filled and caulked, primed where it is bare, then finished in a water-based satin..

03

Wallpaper

Old paper comes off by wetting the backing and scraping at a low angle; then the adhesive is washed off and the wall left to dry.

04

Repairs before paint

Hairline cracks, nail holes, failed plasterboard joints, holes in board and loose plaster are repaired before decorating, each by the method that suits it.

05

Kitchen cabinets

A kitchen can be changed without being replaced.

06

Outside

Outside work is planned around the weather.
