Interior Painting in North London

Expert Interior Painting Services

Interior painting is more than just applying colour to walls – it's about creating beautiful, lasting finishes that enhance your home. Our experienced painters deliver immaculate results across all types of interior spaces, from single bedrooms to whole-house renovations, using professional techniques and premium trade materials.

Based in North London, we understand the unique challenges of painting London homes, from Victorian terraces with high ceilings and ornate cornices to modern flats requiring quick turnarounds with minimal disruption. Every project receives meticulous preparation, precise application, and thorough finishing touches.

What's Included

Our Preparation Process

Professional preparation is the foundation of any quality paint job. We never cut corners on prep work because we know it's what separates a good finish from a great one:

1. 1.
   Protection & Setup – Furniture moved or covered with dustsheets, floors protected, fixtures masked with precision tape
2. 2.
   Surface Preparation – Cracks filled, holes made good, imperfections smoothed, old flaking paint removed
3. 3.
   Sanding – Surfaces sanded to create the perfect key for paint adhesion
4. 4.
   Priming – Appropriate primers applied to ensure even coverage and long-lasting results
5. 5.
   Painting – Two coats minimum using professional application techniques
6. 6.
   Inspection & Touch-ups – Final check under different lighting, any imperfections corrected

Materials & Paint Quality

We exclusively use premium trade paints that offer superior performance over standard retail products. Trade paints provide better coverage (often needing fewer coats), more durable finishes, richer colours, and longer-lasting results.

Our preferred brands include Dulux Trade, Crown Trade, and Johnstone's Trade. We'll recommend the right product for each surface – from moisture-resistant bathroom paints to scrubbable finishes for hallways and family rooms. All our standard paints are low-VOC (volatile organic compounds), making them safe for occupied homes and better for indoor air quality.

Typical Timeline

Most interior painting projects follow this general timeline, though we'll give you exact dates during your quote:

• Single bedroom: 1-2 days
• Living room (standard): 2-3 days
• Kitchen or bathroom: 2-3 days (including prep and specialist paints)
• Whole flat (2-bed): 5-7 days
• Whole house (3-bed): 7-10 days

Aftercare Advice

Your newly painted surfaces need a little care in the first few weeks:

• Allow paint to cure fully (usually 2-4 weeks) before washing or scrubbing
• Ventilate rooms well for the first 48 hours to help paint cure
• Avoid placing furniture directly against walls for a few days
• Clean any marks gently with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent once fully cured
• Keep leftover paint for future touch-ups (we'll label it clearly for you)
