Skirting, doors, frames, windowsills, stairs and banisters in satinwood or gloss.
Exterior surfaces
Render, masonry, cladding, fascias and front doors — weatherproofed properly.

Kitchens and cabinets
Sprayed factory-smooth finishes that transform kitchens without replacing them.
Walls and ceilings
Emulsion finishes for every room — matt, silk and durable scrubbable paints.
Finishes matched to every surface.
Kitchens need different paint to bedrooms; woodwork needs different paint to walls. For your Dulwich project we spec the right finish for every surface — and explain why.
Prep is our obsession.
Cracks filled and sanded flat. Gaps caulked so lines stay crisp. Stains blocked, bare patches primed, old wallpaper stripped properly — not papered over. It's slower, and it's the only way your Dulwich project keeps looking sharp for years. If a wall needs plastering rather than paint, we'll tell you honestly.

See prices guideHouse Painting in Dulwich — FAQs.
How long does it take to paint a whole house?
A typical 3-bed house interior takes 1–2 weeks depending on condition and how much woodwork is included; exteriors add a few days in the right weather. Your quote includes a clear schedule.
Is it cheaper to paint before moving in?
Yes, noticeably — empty rooms need no furniture handling and dry faster with windows open, so the same house takes fewer days. If you can give us the keys between exchange and move-in, that's the sweet spot.
Can you help choose colours for the whole house?
Yes — free colour advice comes with every quote. We'll help you build a palette that flows room to room and suits the light each room gets.
Do you cover the rest of Southwark?
Yes — Dulwich is part of our coverage across the London Borough of Southwark, alongside College, Village, Dulwich Village, West Dulwich. One local team, one standard, across the whole borough.
Which parts of Dulwich do you cover?
All of it — Dulwich (SE21) is fully inside our patch, along with College, Village, Dulwich Village, West Dulwich. If you're on the border of two areas, don't worry: the same local team covers both.
