Skilled Painters and Decorators with Local Knowledge

Notting Hill homes often blend period style with contemporary living. Whether you live in a Georgian flat near Ladbroke Grove, a mews property tucked behind Westbourne Grove or a converted apartment by Kensington Park Gardens, our decorators bring the right expertise for your space.
We understand the finishes that suit Notting Hill’s pastel façades and heritage interiors, and we plan every project carefully around parking restrictions and the area’s busy residential streets. Our work is fully mobile; our teams operate throughout Notting Hill and wider Central and South-West London, so we can be on site quickly and work efficiently.

Interior Painting & Decorating – Many Notting Hill homes feature high ceilings, ornate plasterwork and large sash windows that demand precision and care. We repaint and restore living spaces in the townhouses around Elgin Crescent and the apartments off Westbourne Grove, using durable, low-odour paints ideal for occupied homes. Our decorators protect period features, maintain clean work areas and achieve a smooth, even finish suited to both heritage and modern interiors.

Exterior Painting – Stucco and painted brickwork are a defining feature of Notting Hill’s architecture, particularly around Pembridge Square and Westbourne Grove. We prepare and repaint exteriors using microporous, weather-resistant coatings that allow older walls to breathe while keeping them protected from London’s rain and grime. Every project is finished to blend with Notting Hill’s distinctive streetscape and conservation standards. We also liaise with Kensington & Chelsea’s conservation officers when required, ensuring every finish enhances your home while respecting Notting Hill’s architectural identity.

Woodwork & Restoration – Traditional woodwork is a hallmark of Notting Hill properties, particularly on doors, shutters and window frames. We repair and repaint timber elements in period homes around Ladbroke Grove and Lancaster Road, treating and filling where needed to preserve detail and prevent weather damage. Our approach extends the life of original joinery and ensures a consistent finish across the property.

Wallpaper Hanging & Decorative Finishes – Many local clients opt for wallpaper to highlight alcoves or feature walls, especially in the elegant front rooms common along Colville Terrace and Kensington Park Road. We hang all types of wallcoverings — from hand-printed designs to modern vinyls — ensuring precise alignment and minimal waste. Our team can also apply decorative effects such as feature panelling or painted stripes suited to Notting Hill’s mix of classic and contemporary homes.

Commercial & Rental Refurbishment – We frequently redecorate small businesses and rental apartments near Notting Hill Gate and Portobello Market. Our team plans quick, tidy projects for landlords, estate agents and shop owners, focusing on hard-wearing finishes and fast turnaround times. We schedule work to fit around business hours or changeovers, keeping downtime to a minimum.

Our team has completed numerous decorating projects throughout Notting Hill, from full interior repaints on Pembridge Villas to detailed exterior work on pastel terraces off Lancaster Road. We often work around the area’s narrow mews and high-footfall streets, scheduling jobs to minimise disruption for homeowners and neighbours alike.

Local Case Study

Recently, we redecorated a three-storey townhouse near Ladbroke Square, where the owners wanted to retain the home’s traditional cornices while introducing a lighter, modern palette. Our decorators repaired the original plasterwork, restored the sash windows and completed the project on schedule despite the area’s restricted parking access.

And, if you scroll down our dedicated Exteriors page, you can see a recent project we completed in Notting Hill.

FAQs from Notting Hill Residents

Q1: Do you work in Notting Hill’s conservation areas such as Pembridge or Ladbroke?
Yes. Much of Notting Hill falls within conservation zones, so we’re familiar with local requirements for exterior painting and period-property finishes. We can advise you on suitable paint types and colours that comply with Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea guidelines.

Q2: How do you handle decorating in Notting Hill’s narrow mews and restricted parking zones?
Many mews streets, like those off Stanley Crescent or Westbourne Grove, have limited access. Our teams plan deliveries and equipment carefully, using smaller vehicles and working within residents’ parking hours to keep disruption minimal.

Q3: Can you match the traditional pastel façades seen across Notting Hill terraces?
Absolutely. We regularly colour-match heritage shades used around Colville Terrace, Lancaster Road and Portobello Road, ensuring the new paint blends perfectly with neighbouring properties.

Q4: Do you provide decorating for short-let or rental apartments near Portobello Market?
Yes. We often refresh short-term rentals and Airbnbs in the heart of Notting Hill, scheduling rapid-turnaround projects between lets while maintaining a high-end finish suited to this sought-after postcode.

Q5: Can you work around Notting Hill Carnival or busy local events?
We’re well-used to planning around the Carnival and other local events. For homes near Ladbroke Grove or Kensington Park Road, we schedule work before or after the festival period to avoid access issues and ensure a smooth, uninterrupted finish.
