House Painting Services in Hampstead

Full Interior Repaint

We work room by room: ceiling first, walls, then woodwork. This sequence prevents drips and avoids touch-up work.

Victorian mansion flats in Belsize Park often have magnolia layered over original features. Stripping and stabilising the build-up before applying a Farrow and Ball palette across high-ceilinged rooms requires proper preparation. For detailed guidance, see our interior painting page.

Exterior Walls and Woodwork

Exterior work covers masonry, timber sash windows, front doors, fascias, soffits, and garden walls. Georgian townhouses have lime-mortared facades requiring breathable masonry paint.

We specify products matched to surface material at the site visit. Breathable systems are not optional on listed properties. For full detail, see our exterior painting page.

Coordinated Schedule

Interior work runs first, floor by floor. Exterior scaffold goes up once interior is complete or in parallel on upper floors, avoiding dust contamination.

In occupied properties, we work to a room-by-room schedule agreed upfront. One bedroom remains habitable throughout. We provide a written schedule before starting.

Period Properties

Hampstead village properties have lime plaster internally and lime render externally. Both need breathable products and specialist preparation. Cornicing, ceiling roses, dado rails, and original timber windows are standard.

We have over ten years of experience on Georgian and Victorian properties across NW3 and NW6. Listed building requirements are understood and respected.

Pre-Sale Preparation

Pre-sale decoration improves first impressions and supports asking price in the NW London market. A two-bed flat can be refreshed in four to five days.

We advise on colour choices that present well on viewings. Neutral Farrow and Ball tones on walls with crisp white woodwork is proven in this market.

Here’s How It Works

1. Whole-Property Assessment

We visit and assess every surface. This produces the fixed quote and project schedule.

2. Schedule Planning

We agree room sequence, drying times, and how the schedule fits around occupancy. Exterior scaffold timing is confirmed.

3. Interior Phase

We work ceiling to floor, room by room. Period features are painted by brush. Lime plaster is stabilised before any finish coat.

4. Exterior Phase

Masonry is cleaned and treated. Scaffold is erected for properties above two storeys. We plan around the weather forecast.

5. Final Inspection and Snagging

We walk through every room and exterior elevation with you. Any items needing attention are dealt with before the scaffold comes down.

Property Size and Height

A five-storey Georgian townhouse has four times the wall area and ceiling height of a two-bed Victorian terrace. Access time, materials, and labour scale accordingly.

Scope of Work

Interior only differs from interior and exterior combined. Scaffold hire, exterior preparation, and breathable masonry systems add cost to combined projects.

Surface Condition

Period properties with lime plaster and lime render require breathable products and more preparation time than modern plasterboard and sand-and-cement render.

A typical whole-house repaint across NW London costs between £12,000 and £45,000, depending on size and condition.

Typical Price Ranges

Full interior only, 2-bed Victorian terrace (West Hampstead or Kentish Town): £9,000 to £15,000. Combined interior and exterior, Victorian semi (Primrose Hill or Belsize Park): £15,000 to £25,000.

Combined interior and exterior, 5-storey Georgian townhouse (Hampstead village): £25,000 to £45,000+, including breathable exterior system and period internal preparation.
