What I do

Painting, decorating, indoor and outdoor.

Three things, done properly. Every job gets the same care, whether it is one front door or a full redecoration.

Stairwell with deep green panelling and a crisp white banister

Life to Inside

Indoor Painting

All indoor painting projects considered for your home, your office, your retail space.

Living rooms, bedrooms, stairwells and landings, along with the doors, skirting boards and ceilings that make a room feel finished.

Life to Outside

Outdoor Painting

Not graffiti, but life brought to your outdoor living space using colour.

Front doors, garage doors and the outside of your home. It is the first thing anyone sees, and a fresh finish there lifts the look of the whole house.

The kitchen that was saved

White to navy, after another attempt went wrong.

Where do i start …what a hero paul has been for us…4 weeks ago we decided to repaint our kitchen cupboards from white to navy…another professional tried it and to be frank what was left was hideous to the point we were pricing up new kitchens…Paul came over quickly after hours to give us some advice….he was calm and honest and did so Much research on if we could have them fixed….he worked with us and advised on paints and as soon as he was available put In 4 days of hard graft and not only saved the kitchen but exceeded expectations…would thoroughly recommend

Top tier workmanship by Painting by Paul. Earlier this month, Paul came to paint and decorate our living room, stairwell and landing - along with doors, skirting boards and ceiling. It’s hard to put into words just how pleased we are with not only the quality of the work Paul did, but his consistently professional, hard working attitude with an immaculate attention to detail. I have attached some photos of the incredible work that he did. After we attempted to paint the living room ourselves, we decided to get a quote from Paul, and from point of contact to completion, his approach to the job was top tier. We are planning on booking him again for our lobby, bathrooms and bedrooms, and have recently recommended him to family and neighbours. Thank you Paul - not many as reliable, talented and professional like you about anymore! 🙌

We recently had our garage door and front door painted by Paul, and we’re so pleased with the result. From the first conversation, he was friendly, reliable, and clear about what needed doing. He turned up early each day, worked carefully, and paid great attention to detail; you can tell he really takes pride in his work. The finish looks fantastic and has completely lifted the look of our home. It’s rare to find someone who is both professional and easy to deal with, but Paul really is. We’d happily recommend him to anyone looking for a quality painter.

We used Paul a couple of times for a small project because we'd seen and heard great things in our area. We can only wholeheartedly agree, Paul is brilliant. The finish and speed at which he completes his projects is fantastic. We've had a couple of different painters and decorators over the years and Paul is by far the best. We will 100% be using Paul again. He's transformed our room and we are just thrilled with it. The finish he gets is spot on, so tidy, so clean and super professional. Highly, highly recommended!
