Inside the house
Walls, wallpaper and a lacquer finish
Painting, decorating and wallpapering, finished to a high standard with no mess, and everything tidied up afterwards. Strong colours side by side get clean, straight lines where one stops and the next begins.
House painting
Interior painting, one room at a time or the whole house.
Painting and decorating
Painter and decorator work finished to a high standard, with an eye for the finer details.
Wallpapering
Wallpaper hung by hand, one of Pat's specialties.
Spray painting, lacquer finish
A sprayed lacquer finish, Pat's other specialty.
Small DIY jobs
The odd jobs that go along with a paint job, done at the same visit.
Wall stickers removed
Old wall stickers taken off before the new colour goes on.
One room, two strong colours
Strong colour needs a steady hand
Deep purple and a warm red side by side only work when the edge between them is dead straight, top to bottom, around every window and door. Here is the same bedroom from two corners.
Thinking of a bold colour for one room?
Talk it through with Pat before the first coat goes on.
