Period property decorating
Careful planning for existing plasterwork, timber details and historic decorative surfaces.
Preparation comes first
In a period interior, retaining a moulding can matter more than making every surface look new. Identify original features and later repairs before choosing a preparation method. Historic paint layers or decoration may need specialist advice before they are disturbed.
Agreeing the finish
For listed buildings or properties in conservation areas, check the proposed work with the relevant adviser or local authority before starting. Materials should be selected for the existing substrate and agreed scope; a period appearance alone does not establish compatibility.
For listed buildings and conservation areas, check the proposed work before starting. See Historic England’s advice on redecoration.
