Apartment Block Decorating in Harborne
Apartment block and managed-property decorating across Harborne (B17) — entrance halls, corridors, stairwells and landings, finished to a hard-wearing standard with minimal disruption to residents. Harborne is one of our regular city-side areas — period family homes with a real appetite for considered finishes.
Communal-area decorating in Harborne blocks demands a careful programme. We'll walk the building with the managing agent, agree the phasing (typically by core, floor or stairwell), and work in a way that keeps every flat accessible and every fire-door route clear throughout.
Harborne's housing leans heavily on Victorian and Edwardian terraces and semis through the High Street and Lordswood Road, with pockets of larger detached homes around the conservation area. We get a steady run of full room transformations here — panelled feature walls, sprayed kitchens and full hall, stairs and landing repaints in particular. Hard-wearing scrub-rated emulsions on walls, durable water-based eggshell on woodwork and a careful re-finish of handrails, doors and skirting are the typical specification. We document signage, fire-door requirements and resident notices where the building needs it.
From single-block refreshes to phased programmes across multiple Harborne developments, we work to RAMS, carry £5m public liability cover and communicate directly with managing agents and on-site managers throughout.

Harborne — common questions.
Do you decorate communal areas in Harborne blocks?+

Do you provide RAMS if required?+
Yes — site-specific RAMS, method statements and risk assessments included where the building requires them.
