Before & after.
BeforeAfterThe brief
A considered, long-term finish.
Four Oaks Painting & Decorating was instructed to carry out a comprehensive internal redecoration throughout this house in Four Oaks, Sutton Coldfield, completed over five days.
A whole-house project lives or dies on planning. The work was sequenced room by room, so each area was prepared, decorated and finished before the team moved on, keeping the property orderly throughout.
With multiple rooms being completed as part of the same project, consistency was a key part of the brief. Our team carefully prepared each area — filling, sanding and making good walls, ceilings and woodwork — before applying the chosen finishes, ensuring clean lines, crisp woodwork and the same professional result in every room.
Existing flooring, oak doors, fittings and furniture were protected while the work was carried out, and every room was left clean. We work with Farrow & Ball and Tikkurila paint systems, with Graco airless and HVLP spray equipment available where a sprayed finish suits the surface.
The work covered the main living areas, bedrooms, hallway, kitchen and bathroom, with each space completed to the same standard.
The project finished with snagging and final quality checks, and careful preparation and attention to detail helped create a brighter, cleaner and more refined feel throughout the property.
