Choosing the look for your home – story boards, mood boards paper & paint!


We are often asked what paint should we use? Little Greene paints are a high quality well established and reliable favourite, with Johnstone’s or Dulux paints very popular for modern apartments and conversions with sleek surfaces. Church or historic listed building work often calls for Limewash and specialist Keim paints, all involve our proven craftsman skills. Papers and Paints provide a renowned colour matching service, know their stuff and are highly regarded across the World for their expertise.

Preparation - interior decorator

Surface preparation prior to decorating

Beautifully designed wallpapers and wallcoverings give us the opportunity to shine and to transform your favourite places and spaces! You must allow extra time for preparationof the underlying surface, otherwise every surface blemish will be highlighted with a high sheen wallcovering, and of course, its very important to have already decided and installed any new lighting before the decorating project starts.
