Reviews
From our happy customers.
The team did an absolutely brilliant job painting our living room and hallway. They were so careful with our furniture and took the time to properly prep all the walls. The color matching was spot-on, and they even helped us choose the perfect shade for our feature wall. Very tidy workers who cleaned up properly after each day. Couldn't be happier with the results!
Margaret, East End
Had my entire downstairs painted including the kitchen and dining room. The painters were punctual every morning and worked efficiently throughout the job. They took extra care around my kitchen cabinets and gave great advice about paint finishes. The final result is exactly what I wanted, and the paint job has transformed my home.
David, East End
Really impressed with the work done on our master bedroom and en-suite. The team suggested a moisture-resistant paint for the bathroom which I hadn't even considered. They did a perfect job on all the cutting in around the windows and doors - not a single mistake! Very friendly painters who were happy to answer all my questions. Would definitely recommend.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the estimated cost to have my Sunderland home painted?
The cost depends on several things. We look at the size of the space and what condition the walls are in. We also consider the type of paint you want and how much prep work is needed. Older homes in East End often need more prep work than newer ones. We'll give you a free quote after we look at your specific needs.
How long can I expect a painting project to take?
Each project is different. A normal room usually takes 1-2 days to prep and paint. Bigger spaces take longer. For outside painting, we need to think about Sunderland's weather. The timeline depends on wall condition, prep work needed, and paint drying time.
Are you insured?
Yes, we have full public liability and professional insurance. This protects both your property and our work in Sunderland and nearby areas.
Do you offer free estimates for painting services in Sunderland?
Yes, we offer free estimates with no obligation. We'll visit your property in East End or anywhere in Sunderland. Then we'll give you a detailed breakdown of costs.
Do you handle the preparation work, such as sanding and priming, before painting?
Yes, we do all the prep work. This includes cleaning, sanding, and filling holes. We also fix damp patches, which are common in North East homes. We make sure surfaces are ready for painting. This is very important because of Sunderland's coastal weather.
How do you protect my furniture and home from paint splatters?
We use heavy-duty dust sheets and floor covers. We carefully mask fixtures and fittings. We either move furniture or cover it completely. We take extra care with valuable items and keep your home clean.
What if it rains on the outdoor painting day?
We check Sunderland's weather forecast carefully. We plan outdoor work on dry days. If it rains unexpectedly, we have ways to protect fresh paint. Sometimes we might need to reschedule.

No, you don't need to stay home. Once we agree on the details and how to get in, we can work while you're away. We'll keep you updated on our progress.
