Professional interior and exterior painting and decorating across Exeter and Devon, with proper surface preparation and repairs included.
Most of the difference between a decorating job that looks good for two years and one that looks good for ten happens before any paint is opened. Filling, sanding, repairing cracks, sealing and priming. That is the part people cut, and it is the part that shows.
We do interior and exterior work, from a single room to a whole property, and we do the preparation properly.
We work throughout Exeter, Devon and the surrounding towns.
What's included
Every project is different, but a typical job with us covers:
- Full surface preparation, filling and sanding
- Crack repairs and making good
- Sealing and priming
- Interior painting to walls, ceilings and woodwork
- Exterior painting and rendering repairs
- Wallpapering and feature walls
- Protection of floors, furniture and fittings
- Daily clean-down and tidy site
- Final inspection with you

Do you prepare the surfaces or just paint over them?
We prepare properly: filling, sanding, repairing cracks and priming. It is most of the labour on a decorating job and it is the reason the finish lasts.
Can you work while we are living in the house?
Yes, and most of our decorating work is done that way. We protect everything, work room by room and clear up at the end of each day.
Do you do exterior painting in Devon weather?
Yes. We prepare in stages so that whenever there is a dry spell, there is always a section ready to be finished.
How much does it cost to decorate a whole house?
A full interior repaint of a three-bedroom home typically runs between £3,000 and £6,000 depending on condition, ceiling heights and how much woodwork is involved.
Do you supply the paint?
We can, or you can choose and supply it yourself. Either works.
