Wimbledon runs from grand to brisk, and the decorating spans the same range. Up around Wimbledon Village and the Common sit substantial detached and semi-detached period houses, with original features, high ceilings and large gardens, where owners expect a careful, high-standard finish. This is the methodical end of the work: extensive woodwork and ornate detailing filled, sanded and cut in by hand, heritage colours matched across reception rooms, and a scheme carried consistently through several rooms and a long stairwell.
Down towards the town centre and South Wimbledon the pace picks up. The Victorian terraces and the conversions off the Broadway carry period quirks, from settling cracks and older lath-and-plaster to sash windows painted shut, that want proper preparation, while the modern flats near the station and Merton Park take a clean, even finish quickly: a couple of coats over smooth plaster and a colour change before a sale or a let. Around the station there is a steady run of between-tenancy flat work for landlords and agents.
We decorate interiors and exteriors across SW19 from a single room to a whole house redecorated end to end, taking real care to keep original features intact on the older homes while bringing the finish up to standard. Colours, finish and a firm price are agreed before we start, floors and furniture protected, and the place left clean. One team covers the prep, the paint and the making-good.

Why Wimbledon homes and landlords rely on us for painting and decorating
The larger period houses near the Village and the Common are the most demanding decorating in Wimbledon, inside and out. Ornate ceiling roses and cornices are cut in around by hand, tall panelled doors and extensive architraves are rubbed down and repainted, and heritage colours are matched from room to room so a whole-house scheme reads as one. The generous gardens often mean substantial exterior elevations too, with render, masonry, sash windows and front doors repainted in weather-suited finishes.
The flats and terraces nearer the station are the quicker, more practical work. Modern flats take a couple of even coats over smooth plaster and a magnolia scheme swaps easily for something warmer; the South Wimbledon terraces want more careful period preparation; and the let flats off the Broadway get hard-wearing repaints and between-tenancy turnarounds to suit the changeover. Converted houses with communal stairs are redecorated in a neutral shade with the freeholder's agreement, and whichever end of Wimbledon, the preparation comes first.

Our process for painting and decorating in Wimbledon
A simple, no-surprises way of working — from your first message to a tidy finish.
- 1
Colours and a price up front
We agree colours, finishes and the scope of work, then give you a clear price before any painting begins.
- 2
Protect and mask
We cover floors and furniture and mask edges, sockets and trim so nothing is splashed or marked.
- 3
Fill, sand and prepare
We fill cracks and holes, sand back and clean down, because a lasting finish comes from the preparation.
- 4
Prime bare and patched areas
We seal bare plaster, filler and woodwork so the topcoats take evenly and hold up over time.
- 5
Apply the finish coats
We cut in neatly and lay on even coats, building up as many as the job needs for full, consistent coverage.
- 6
Clean up and final check
We remove the masking, reinstate the room and look over the finish with you in good light.

Painting & Decorating in Wimbledon — FAQs
Do you cover both Wimbledon Village and the town centre?
Yes — we cover Wimbledon Village, the town centre and South Wimbledon across the SW19 postcode, out towards the Common and Merton Park. If you are unsure whether we reach your street, just get in touch.
Can you take on larger jobs on Wimbledon houses?
Yes. Wimbledon has plenty of substantial period and family housing, and we handle everything from single repairs to small projects — decorating, carpentry, bathroom updates and general upkeep — with one team across every trade.
Are you experienced with the period houses near Wimbledon Village and the Common?
Yes. The larger period homes around the Village bring their own quirks — sash windows that stick, older lath-and-plaster, and dated pipework — and we look after them sympathetically, keeping original features intact while bringing things up to standard.
Do you work with landlords letting flats near Wimbledon station?
Yes. There is a good number of let flats around the town centre and South Wimbledon, and we handle reactive repairs, between-tenancy work and small upgrades for the landlords and agents who manage them.
Do you prepare the surfaces or just paint?
Preparation is where a good finish comes from. We fill, sand, mask and prime as needed so the final result looks clean and lasts — it is all included in the quote.
Can you paint a single room or a whole property?
Both. From refreshing one room to redecorating an entire home or rental before a new tenancy, just tell us the scope and we will quote accordingly.
Do you tidy up afterwards?
Always. We protect floors and furniture, work cleanly and leave the space tidy and ready to use.
Do you paint exteriors as well as interiors?
Yes. As well as interior walls, ceilings and woodwork we paint exterior masonry, render, fascias and front doors, using finishes suited to the weather.
Can you repaint a property between tenancies quickly?
Yes. Between-tenancy repaints are a regular job for us — we use hard-wearing, washable finishes and work to a timescale that fits the changeover.
Can you match an existing colour?
Usually, yes. If you can point us to the paint or leave a sample, we can match the colour so touch-ups and new work blend in with what is already there.
