What types of paint and materials do you recommend, and why?

Painters and decorators can guide you on durable, eco-friendly or low-VOC paints suited to London's climate, explaining how they resist mould in humid areas or suit high-traffic rooms while matching your preferred style from matte finishes to bold metallics.
