Don't be put off by his photograph on his site. He is a really nice guy and most professional. He has a great knowledge of properties in the Pimlico area and this proved most useful to us for our property which had structural problems which we then investigated following his advice.

Painting & Decorating- 10 Oct 2026
I cannot recommend Belinda highly enough. From the very first interaction, she was prompt, polite, professional and incredibly helpful. She took the time to explain exactly what needed doing and provided a clear, upfront quote, which I really appreciated. Her transparency and honesty made the whole process straightforward and stress-free. I posted the job on Monday, Belinda came on Thursday, and everything was completed by Friday. The quality of her work is exceptional, with real care and attention to detail throughout. The finished result is to the highest standard, and she clearly takes enormous pride in what she does. Beyond her excellent workmanship, Belinda is also genuinely lovely: kind, thoughtful and a pleasure to deal with. It's rare to find someone who combines such professionalism and skill with such a warm manner. I'd use her again without hesitation and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a reliable, talented and trustworthy tradesperson.

Painting & Decorating- 10 May 2019
Amazing painter and decorator! Hicham saved the day for me after my wall and skirting were left in a poor state by the previous builder (see my previous job review). Hicham came to do a site visit first and kept asking me why the previous builder did this? Why he left it like this? Million dollar questions! Hicham gave me an affordable and fair quote of £200 to repair the uneven plasterwork, the poor paintwork with hardened drops, and replace the odd skirting board after I explained the situation I had been left with and how I had underpaid the previous builder by £100 to cover repairs. I quickly learned that £100 was not enough to repair the state the previous builder had left the closed in doorway wall after I got quotes of £300 and £400 from other builders. Hicham began work today, a week after the previous builder left and worked hard to sand all the uneven plasterwork, fill and also replace the skirting board. He went above and beyond and even painted the entire length of the wall on both sides so the doorway area paint would match. I was so touched by the extra efforts he made to make right the wall. He even brought a colleague to speed up the work! I was very impressed with the first-class finish of his work, I gave him a generous tip. I have kept his card and I am very grateful to mybuilder for allowing me to find a top rate painter/decorator so quickly. He deserves a 1000 positive feedbacks! If you have a grade II listed home that needs fine care, book Hicham!

Lamar was absolutely amazing from start to finish. He painted my cupboards and wooden panels beautifully, and also helped with a number of handyman jobs around the house. He was super friendly, so patient, and just genuinely lovely to have around. His work was done to such a high standard that I’ve already called him back for a second job, and I’ve also recommended him to friends and family. He’s reliable, professional, and clearly takes pride in what he does. I honestly can’t recommend him enough — such a sweet, friendly person and amazing at his job!

Questions to ask a St James painter and decorator

Choosing a St James 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 St James?

From period terraces and cottage interiors to modern flats, each property in St James 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 St James?

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 St James?

Decorating listed buildings in St James 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 St James painting and decorating services

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

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 St James homes?

In St James, 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 St James?

Surface preparation in St James 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 St James 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.
