Commercial painting and decorating services

I work on all types of commercial property — from a single office refresh to a full shopfront repaint. Every job is approached with the same care and preparation as my residential work.

Office painting and decorating

Whether you're refreshing a single office or redecorating an entire workspace, I provide a professional and flexible service tailored to your requirements, working carefully to minimise disruption.

Shopfront and retail decorating

Make a great first impression with a freshly decorated shopfront or retail space. I help your business create an inviting, well-maintained appearance that reflects your brand.

Commercial interior painting

From reception areas and meeting rooms to corridors and communal spaces, I deliver attractive, durable finishes that create a welcoming environment for staff, customers and visitors.

Commercial exterior painting

Protect and enhance the appearance of your commercial property with professional exterior painting. I prepare and paint exterior walls, doors, windows and other suitable surfaces.

Surface preparation and repairs

A long-lasting finish begins with thorough preparation. I handle surface cleaning, filling, sanding, minor repairs and priming before any painting begins.

Woodwork and surface finishing

Doors, skirting boards, window frames and other surfaces prepared and painted to a smooth, durable finish throughout your commercial property.

I also carry out interior decorating and exterior decorating for residential customers — get in touch if you need both commercial and domestic work quoted together.

Types of commercial premises I work on

Offices and workspaces

From small business offices to larger commercial workspaces, I refresh and redecorate to create a productive, professional environment.

Retail shops and showrooms

Shopfronts, retail interiors and showroom spaces decorated to make the right impression on customers from the moment they arrive.

Restaurants and hospitality

Dining rooms, bars and hospitality interiors decorated to create the right atmosphere for your customers.

Landlords and rental properties

Reliable, efficient redecorating between tenancies or as part of planned maintenance, helping landlords keep properties in good condition.

Commercial property managers

Flexible scheduling and clear communication for property managers overseeing planned maintenance or refurbishment work.

Small to medium commercial premises

I focus on jobs where you deal directly with me throughout — no subcontracting, consistent quality and communication from start to finish.

How I approach commercial decorating

Commercial decorating requires more planning than a typical residential job. I work around your business hours, protect your equipment and fittings, and keep disruption to an absolute minimum. Here's how I approach every commercial project:

01

Site visit and quotation

I visit the premises, assess the work required and discuss your schedule and any access requirements. All quotations are free and set out exactly what's included.

02

Plan around your business

I discuss your opening hours and how the premises are used before agreeing a schedule. Where practical, I stage the work to keep disruption to a minimum.

03

Protect the premises

I protect floors, furniture, equipment and fittings with dust sheets and masking before any work begins. I work cleanly and tidy up at the end of each day.

04

Prepare every surface

Surfaces are cleaned, filled, sanded and primed as required. I don't cut corners on preparation — it's what makes the finish last.

05

Deliver the finished result

I apply the finish coats carefully and systematically, then carry out a final check before handing the space back to you.

Colour and finish guidance for commercial spaces

The right colour scheme can transform a commercial space — making it feel more professional, more welcoming, or more on-brand. For offices, neutral tones tend to work well in areas where staff spend long periods. Reception areas and client-facing spaces often benefit from something with a little more character.

For retail and shopfronts, colour needs to work with your signage and brand identity. I'm happy to discuss options at the quotation visit and advise on what tends to work well for your type of premises.

I use professional-grade commercial paints from Dulux Trade and Johnstone's Trade, selected to suit the demands of each space — scrubbable finishes for high-traffic areas, moisture-resistant products for kitchens and bathrooms, and durable coatings for exterior surfaces.
