"Transform your Aldermaston home with our specialist painting service. Whether you have a listed Tudor property or modern family home, we focus on creating beautiful, lasting finishes that protect and enhance your space.
Getting Your Room Ready
Before we start painting, we take great care to protect your home properly. First, we'll move and cover all your furniture and belongings. Then we lay specialist floor protection throughout the work area. We carefully remove all fixtures and switch plates, clean every surface thoroughly, and repair any cracks or damage. Finally, we apply the right primer to ensure a perfect finish.
The Painting Process
We believe in doing things right from start to finish. We begin at the highest points in the room, working methodically with professional-grade brushes and rollers. Every coat is applied carefully, building up layers for complete coverage. We take extra time on corners and edges to create crisp, clean lines. The final coat is checked in all lights to ensure a flawless finish.
Different Rooms, Different Needs
Living Spaces:
Your main rooms deserve special attention. For historic properties, we carefully work around period features like original beams and plasterwork. In modern homes, we create fresh, contemporary finishes. Our paints are chosen to enhance natural light and stand up to daily use.
Kitchen Areas:
Kitchens need extra-tough paint that handles steam and regular cleaning. We use specialty moisture-resistant paints that stay looking fresh. For kitchen units, we provide a complete transformation service that makes old cabinets look new again. This includes thorough degreasing, professional sanding, specialist primers, and hard-wearing top coats.
Bathrooms:
We use advanced moisture-resistant paints that prevent mold while maintaining their appearance. Our bathroom-specific preparation includes extra attention to ventilation and waterproofing around high-moisture areas.
Bedrooms:
Creating a peaceful environment is key. We schedule work to minimize disruption and use low-odor paints where possible. Whether you have period features to preserve or a modern space to refresh, we ensure beautiful results.
Hallways and Stairs:
These high-traffic areas need durable finishes. We use hard-wearing paints that resist scuffs and clean easily, while paying special attention to handrails, spindles, and trim work.
Special Features
Period Features:
In Aldermaston's historic homes, we take extra care with original elements. Timber beams, decorative plasterwork, and period moldings all receive appropriate treatment to preserve their character while providing protection.
Woodwork:
All wooden elements get careful attention. We fill and smooth any damage, sand to a perfect finish, apply appropriate primers, and use hard-wearing paints that protect while looking beautiful.
Radiators:
We use specialist heat-resistant paint that won't yellow or crack, keeping your radiators looking fresh for years.
Paint Finishes and Their Uses
Matt: Perfect for most walls, especially in period properties. It hides minor imperfections and provides a beautiful flat finish that enhances historic features.
Satin: Ideal for areas needing regular cleaning. Its subtle sheen provides durability while maintaining elegance.
Gloss: Best for woodwork and trim. Creates a bright, hard-wearing finish that stands up to wear and tear.
Eggshell: A traditional low-sheen finish that works beautifully in both period and modern homes.
Every paint and finish is chosen to suit your specific needs. We consider factors like room use, natural light, period features, and your personal style to achieve perfect results."

Exterior Painting
"Protect and beautify the outside of your Aldermaston home with our expert painting service. We understand the unique challenges of maintaining local properties, from historic timber-framed buildings to modern family homes.
Preparing Your Property
Great exterior painting starts with thorough preparation. We begin by protecting your garden, paths and plants with professional-grade covers. Then we carefully inspect all surfaces for problems, looking for areas that need special attention. We'll remove any loose or flaking paint, clean all surfaces thoroughly, and fix any damaged areas. For period properties, we take extra care with historic materials, using appropriate repair methods. Finally, we apply primers suited to each surface type.
The Painting Process
Once preparation is complete, we work methodically to create a lasting finish. We monitor weather conditions carefully, choosing the right times to paint. Each coat is applied evenly, building up layers of protection. We allow proper drying time between coats - essential for a lasting finish. Every detail receives careful attention, from corners and edges to period features.

Whether you have traditional brick, render, or timber-frame walls, we use appropriate paints and methods. For historic properties, we use breathable paints that let walls regulate moisture naturally.
