Home Renovation Services in Richmond
We handle the full range of home renovation decorating in Richmond upon Thames, from room-by-room programmes to pre-sale refurbishment and period property restoration.


Full Interior Renovation
A complete interior renovation across a Richmond period property is a substantial programme. Georgian townhouses on Ormond Road and the streets off Richmond Green are frequently renovated room by room over one to three years.
We maintain written records of every paint specification used across your property. Colour references, batch numbers, and finish types are logged at each phase so we can match exactly, not approximately, when the next phase begins.
Kitchen and Bathroom
Kitchens and bathrooms in Richmond’s older housing stock present specific renovation challenges. Kitchen units in period properties may be painted timber rather than factory-finished MDF, and bathrooms often have original lime plaster walls behind modern tiles.
The condition of existing surfaces before quoting is assessed. Painted timber kitchen units are stripped or keyed correctly before new finish coats go on. Sequencing renovation rooms alongside the rest of the programme requires close coordination.
Pre-Sale Refurbishment
Pre-sale refurbishment in Richmond borough operates at a different standard than a standard repaint. Barnes Victorian terraces averaging £1.5m and Teddington semis at £800k are sold to buyers who notice preparation quality and finish standard immediately.
We approach pre-sale work as a whole-property presentation project. Where interior and exterior are both needed before the property goes to market, our house painting service covers both as a single programme.
Extension and Loft Conversion
Extensions and loft conversions create a mixed-surface environment where new plasterboard walls meet original lime plaster. The preparation approach for each surface type is different, and getting the boundary between them right determines whether the finished result looks cohesive.
New plaster needs to dry fully before painting. For the exterior side of an extension programme, our exterior painting service covers render specification and masonry treatment on new builds attached to period properties.
Period Property Restoration
Period property restoration goes beyond decoration. Restoring a Georgian townhouse in Kew TW9 or a Victorian villa in Teddington TW11 means addressing original plasterwork correctly and treating original joinery rather than replacing it.
Farrow and Ball, Little Greene, and Papers and Paints are the paint houses whose products suit period interiors in this borough. We advise on colour palette selection at the site visit and can work from an architect’s specification or develop a palette with you from scratch.

Home Renovation Costs in London
Renovation programmes in Richmond upon Thames span the widest price range of any decorating work. A two-room programme in a Kew TW9 Georgian townhouse and a whole-house renovation in Barnes are very different projects.
What Drives the Price
Three factors drive the cost of a renovation programme: scope and phase extent, property type and period features, and paint specification. A whole-house programme covering six to eight rooms across multiple phases requires more planning, more product management, and more on-site time than a contained two-room first phase.
High ceilings, original lime plaster, deep cornicing, and original joinery add preparation time to every room. Heritage paint programmes using Farrow and Ball or Little Greene cost more per litre than standard trade paints, but for period properties in the borough the investment reflects the property value.
Typical Price Ranges
A two-room renovation programme in a Richmond TW9 Georgian townhouse with original lime plaster, cornicing, and high ceilings typically costs £4,500 to £8,000. A full interior refresh after a loft conversion in a Barnes Victorian villa covering mixed new and period surfaces runs £9,000 to £18,000.
A pre-sale refurbishment on a Teddington Edwardian semi covering the hallway, reception rooms, and exterior front elevation typically costs £5,000 to £10,000. Call 020 4572 8995 for a precise quote on your property.
Per-Phase Fixed Pricing
For multi-phase renovation programmes, we provide a fixed price per phase with a provisional scope for future phases. You commit one phase at a time, so you are never locked into the whole programme without visibility of costs.
We hold to the quoted price. No unexpected additions. The quote confirmed at the start is the price you pay at the end of each phase.

Here’s How It Works
1. Free Site Visit
Your decorator walks the full property and discuss the renovation scope, noting existing conditions, phase boundaries, and any surfaces requiring specialist treatment.
2. Written Quote Per Phase
For multi-phase renovations, we provide a fixed price per phase with a provisional scope for future phases. You commit one phase at a time.
3. Colour and Specification Record
We document every paint reference and finish type before work begins. This record is maintained and updated after every phase for continuity across the programme.
4. Phase Execution
Each phase is planned around other trades in the property. We coordinate with your builder or project manager on sequencing and do not paint over incomplete plasterwork.
5. Phase Sign-Off
At the end of each phase, your decorator walks the finished rooms with you. The specification record is updated and you have a complete written record of every product applied.
