We cover the market towns and villages around it, including Hook, Overton, Whitchurch, Andover, Alton, Fleet and towards Winchester. ### Reaching you across the county Basingstoke sits right on the M3 and A303, which makes much of Hampshire an easy journey for us. Quote visits are arranged at a time that suits you, 7 days a week between 7am and 9pm. ### Hampshire's property mix Hampshire has one of the widest mixes of housing in the South: brick-and-flint and thatched cottages in the villages, Georgian and Victorian houses in towns such as Winchester and Alton, inter-war semis, and large modern developments around its growing towns. Each type needs a different approach to preparation and product choice. ### What Hampshire homeowners ask us for In older homes, it is often careful interior redecoration and restoring painted timber windows and doors. In modern developments, it is usually a first full redecoration, exterior woodwork and fence spraying. Businesses across the county call us for offices and premises they need painted with minimal disruption. ### Places we cover in and around Hampshire - Andover - Winchester - Fleet - Farnborough - Alton - Whitchurch - Overton - Hook Services ## Our Services in Hampshire ### Interior Painting & Decorating Careful preparation for everything from uneven cottage walls to modern plasterboard.

Gallery ## Recent Decorating Work See all our work → Local issues ## Common Decorating Problems in Hampshire Hampshire's older buildings, rural setting and changeable weather all affect how paintwork holds up. ### Older walls that need to breathe Many older Hampshire properties were built with solid walls and lime-based materials. Covering them with the wrong modern paint can trap moisture, leading to flaking and damp patches. ### Damp, sheltered elevations Homes surrounded by trees and hedges in rural Hampshire often have shaded walls that stay damp for longer, encouraging green algae on render and mould around windows. ### Original timber windows and doors Period timber is worth keeping but needs regular paint maintenance. Left too long, the joints open up and rot sets in along sills and bottom rails. ### Uneven walls and ceilings Older rooms are rarely perfectly square or flat, which makes wallpapering and cutting in harder. Extra preparation and careful layout make all the difference. ### Period homes and cottages In Hampshire's villages and older town houses, we take the time to understand the surfaces before choosing products. Breathable paints are often the right choice on older solid walls, and uneven plaster is filled and prepared so the finish looks deliberate rather than patchy. ### Modern and new-build developments Hampshire's growing towns have large amounts of modern housing. Here the common needs are settling-crack repairs, proper finish coats over builder's emulsion and hard-wearing paint in family areas. Spraying makes sense for whole-house jobs in empty properties. ### Rural properties and outbuildings Larger plots in rural Hampshire often mean long runs of fencing, timber-clad outbuildings and garden rooms. Airless spraying covers these quickly and gets into rough-sawn timber that is slow to brush. ### Businesses across the county For offices, shops and hospitality venues, we plan work around opening hours. Working 7 days a week from 7am to 9pm makes it easier to keep your business running while we work. Decorating in Hampshire ## What to Know Before You Book in Hampshire ### From market towns to villages Hampshire's market towns each have their own character. Andover and Alton mix older town-centre buildings with large modern estates, while villages along the Test and Itchen valleys are full of period cottages. Fleet and Farnborough have a lot of inter-war and post-war family housing. Wherever you are in the county, we assess the property first and recommend the right preparation and products for it, rather than using the same approach everywhere. ### Listed and older buildings Some older Hampshire homes are listed or sit in conservation areas, where the look of windows, doors and frontages matters. We are careful with original features and will talk you through suitable finishes. If your property is listed, it is worth checking with your local council before changing colours on the outside, and we are happy to work to whatever is agreed. ### Working with Hampshire's weather Hampshire gets its share of wet winters, and properties near rivers, woodland or low-lying ground can be damp for long periods. Painting exterior surfaces in the right conditions, and treating algae and mould properly first, makes a real difference to how long the finish lasts. We plan exterior work around the forecast and our 7-day week gives us more chances to catch good weather.
