Painting & Decorating- 28 Jan 2026
My journey went like this on my builder. 1st decorator booked to assess the work and didn't show up with no explanation given. The 2nd decorator arrived on time to assess the work and left me feeling doubtful so I declined. The 3rd decorator named Gary arrived on time. Was very attentive and informative around the work what had to be done, touching the walls and ceiling whilst assessing. I was confident that decorator no.3 "Gary" was the person for the job. The morning for the work to start Gary arrived promptly and rearing to go. The work was carried out professionally and Gary took pride in his work and enjoyed admiring his work of art more so pleasing the customer. The work was completed in the time frame Gary set. The walls, skirting, door frame, windowsill and radiators all have the look I envisioned. Gary employed a act of effciency, respect and transparency. I reccommend Gary 100%. Tip Gary cleans up nicely when the work is done.

My family and I were moving and we needed to renovate the walls, which not only needed repainting, but were also holes and cracks on them. We hired him to fix these problems for us, and he completed the work perfectly. The walls were smoother than ever, and even though we changed our minds a couple times, the colour of the walls is exactly what we wanted. Overall, he works very efficiently and is very observant and professional. I would highly recommend him.

Milen, initially came as I had a leak in my ensuit where the tiles had lost their grout. He was very honest in giving me advice, and regrouted at a very reasonable price. He then came a month later to remove the tiles in the shower and replace the plaster protection board, then retiled. He purchased all the products and gave me advice on the most valuable sustainable tiles. The work was carried out a to very high level, I would most definitely hire Milen in the future, and highly recommend him.

Kamil and his colleague were brilliant and I’d highly recommend them. We had a ceiling crack that was bowing, Kamil correctly identified the issue and fixed it. He also sanded and primed our ceiling and walls, ready for us to paint. Kamil & his colleague worked really hard to finish the job in just two days and were polite and tidy. He was clear and considerate about the costs.

Hire this company ! 2 lovely guys who turned up every morning at 8 without fail. They obviously have pride in their work as the end result was perfect. They do not cut any corners, taking care and time prepping and then decorating to a very high standard. Our kitchen and dining room has never looked so good. While in your home they are unobtrusive, polite, friendly and will answer and explain any queries you may have , offering advice if required. They also helped me out picking up supplies when I was unsure of what I was buying. I would definitely hire them again - in fact I have - they’re doing our bathroom next year

Questions to ask a Southwark painter and decorator

Choosing a Southwark painter and decorator isn’t just about finding someone who can apply a coat of paint. It’s about working with someone who genuinely cares about how your home looks and feels. Here are some questions to help you make the right choice:

What types of projects have you completed in Southwark?

From period terraces and cottage interiors to modern flats, each property in Southwark has its own character. Ask your painter or decorator about their experience with homes similar to yours, and what finishes or materials they recommend for your walls or woodwork.

Can you share photos or examples of your recent work?

Before-and-after images give you a sense of their style, attention to detail, and how they approach surfaces or colours. Many painters and decorators feature their work on MyBuilder, so it’s easy to browse through and see what inspires you.

Do you have references from past clients in Southwark?

Hearing how others describe their workmanship, communication, and reliability can make your decision easier. You can also check reviews on MyBuilder to see how previous customers felt about their results.

How do you prepare surfaces and deal with cracks or damp patches?

Proper prep makes all the difference. A good decorator will explain how they handle imperfections before painting to ensure your new finish lasts.

Are you familiar with local rules for decorating listed or conservation buildings in Southwark?

Decorating listed buildings in Southwark sometimes needs formal consent to protect architectural significance. Knowing how to navigate these regulations and whether specific materials or colours are required can make a big difference in avoiding fines or costly rework.

FAQ: Common questions about Southwark painting and decorating services

How long does a typical painting and decorating project take in Southwark?

Project length varies with the size and nature of the work. A single room might take a few days, while larger jobs like whole-house decorating or detailed woodwork can take several weeks. Factors like surface preparation, drying times, and weather conditions for exterior work also affect the schedule.

What kind of paint or finishes are suitable for Southwark homes?

In Southwark, common choices include matte and eggshell finishes for interiors due to their elegant look and ease of touch-ups. For exterior surfaces, weather-resistant paints that cope with the local climate, such as moisture and temperature changes, are essential for lasting protection.

How do decorators prepare surfaces in older or period homes in Southwark?

Surface preparation in Southwark may involve cleaning, filling cracks, sanding, and sometimes treating issues like dampness. Proper prep is key to paint adhesion and finish durability, especially in homes with plaster, lath walls, or older wood.

Will painters and decorators in Southwark help with colour selection or test samples?

Many decorators offer guidance on colour choices based on lighting and room use and can provide sample swatches or test patches to help you visualise the final look before commitment.
