“Absolutely delighted. The whole downstairs was repainted in three days, dust sheets everywhere and not a mark left behind. Would recommend to anyone.”
A characterful riverside town on the Colne, with historic quayside cottages and a strong creative community. A reliable local decorator for Wivenhoe homeowners, landlords and letting agents — trusted across Essex since 2008.
Every service, on your doorstep.
Wivenhoe's older streets around the Quay and Rose Lane are full of period cottages — sash windows, rendered fronts and the town's famously colourful doors and facades. These homes need a decorator who understands older surfaces, breathable coatings and careful preparation, not just a quick coat of paint.
Down by the Colne, salt air and damp test exterior paintwork hard. I use weatherproof masonry and exterior wood coatings so Wivenhoe frontages stay smart through the seasons, and I'm happy advising on the right products for a waterside property.
With so many artists and makers in Wivenhoe, I get some wonderful briefs — feature walls, studio spaces and the occasional mural. Whatever the project, expect a tidy, respectful job and a finish you'll be proud of.
Real reviews from homeowners and landlords across Colchester and Essex.
“Absolutely delighted. The whole downstairs was repainted in three days, dust sheets everywhere and not a mark left behind. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Did the masonry and all the woodwork on our riverside cottage. Turned up when he said, tidy the whole time, and it still looks brand new a year on.”
“Hung a tricky patterned feature wall in our new build — the pattern matching is spot on and you can't see a single seam. Really pleased.”
