Job for this week for new clients, all mist coated and sized and caulked round all edges, the underside of the windowsill hadnt been filled or sealed correctly, so got that sorted before painting ceiling white, getting woodwork filled and sanded, caulked undercoated and glossed, then all walls wallpapered, with lots of edges to work around and play with!

Finally got the large job of 5 rooms done, il be posting the other 4 rooms later on but they were all very difficult due to realy poor treatment from the previous deccy who failed to do a mist coat properly, didnt fill or sand or caulk, even though they were paid to do that. Finally getting to fill and sand was incredibly difficult as i wasnt asked to do the woodwork or ceilings and pretty mush every ceiling had large cracks or holes which would interfere with both the top and bottom cutting in lines. Also, as you can see, access to get the work done was also a major issue - working in 1 foot of space to fill sand and paint is not conducive to a healthy back!
Anyway, this room has been filled and sanded to within an inch of its life, a full day spent just sanding it, and then 3 different colours cut in

Job ive managed to get done in 5 days, a large triple hsl. Although this was all in white it took a lot of effort as the walls needed a lot of filling and sanding, the last deccy had got paint on a lot of the woodwork, and hadnt bothered to fill around the beams, leaving unsightly large holes around all 3 of them. Plus 16 door reveals to be scraped out and caulked around all the edges, this involved pretty much 12 hour days to get it boxed off.
Ive done all of the downstairs rooms for this lady a few months ago but havnt had a chance to upload those photos either so il be uploading those later on tonight

Finally able to get this job boxed off for a lovely repeat client and id consider a good freind now. It was done a few months ago but he had new carpets put in and unfortunately it had ruined a lot of the woodwork, so sanded filled and sanded, primed with zinsser and 2 coats of black satinwood to get it back to how it should be, the walls, ceiling etc were done a few months ago by me

12/07/2026

So a quick heads up in whats been going on recently, after some much needed time off lots of jobs have been completed but i either need to pop back because carpet was put down and scratched all the woodwork, or were awaiting paint to be delivered so we can complete the final room of the project.
So theyll be quite a lot of jobs uploaded in the next 3 weeks or so as i am able to complete the after photos of each job.

Lastly, we now only have a a couple of slots left for work for the end of October, after that were booked up til mid november- so weve got circa 8 weeks left of the year we can book up for work.

So anyone looking for work to be fitted in this year please message me so i can get you booked in for a quote

Mrantime, thank you all for your continued support...and come on England!

Il be uploading quite a few jobs shortly...not had internet access due to a fault with o2 so got quite a lot to post.

Firstly this conservatory...some parts of the plastering wernt bad...the ceiling was decent, but the walls were horrendous and took days of filling and sanding to get them remotely straight...I still wasn't happy but you can only sand so much and if the plastering is bowed there's not much you can do

Job for a new client and more work being booked in with her for later in the year. This was recently decorated by a professional decorator...no filling, no sanding, woodwork was shocking. So wallpaper stripped and fully filled and sanded, paint removed from spotlights and sockets and handles then all painted and wallpapered

Job for a new client, got a lovely card and box of choccies as a thank you, such a lovely lady and it's nice to make one of her rooms into a home for her. So even though 2 walls were being wallpapered it's very important to treat these walls as you would sny wall to be painted, so sand and fill and caulk, to make sure its flat and even to ensure the wallpaper looks good. Bit of a hiccup in that her cat got out and walked all over the newly glossed windowsill, so that was treated and primed before it could be repainted to make sure there was no dirt or oils on it before it was painted again

2nd job finished for this repeat client. I did this room several years ago but again she'd had a massive water leak which had lead to quite bad cracks in the ceiling and walls which had to be scrim taped before any further work could be done. Then, once painted I found out I'd got the wrong paint so had to do it all again with the right paint. Once that was done I was finally onto all the woodwork

First of 2 rooms completed for a return client. Id previously decorated this room several years ago but shes had a water leak so there was some major damage to the walls and ceiling which needed to be fixed. After that was done it was a complete colour change to the room. I do like doing these 2 tone effects as you have to cut in by hand, you can't use tape as it will damage the paint underneath, so you realy do need a steady hand to get it looking perfect.

Next room will be posted tomorrow as it was painted and then I found out I'd been given the wrong colour paint to paint it with so it's all had to be redone
