Blackheath's trusted
property contractors.
Tom Harvey Contractors has been delivering painting and decorating, flooring and full property refurbishments across Blackheath and the surrounding area since 2014. We're the first choice for landlords and homeowners across SE3 who need quality work done on time, without the hassle.
Blackheath is South East London's most prestigious village — the Georgian crescents and terraces around the heath, the Village itself, and the substantial houses of the Cator Estate and Blackheath Park, including the celebrated 1960s Span developments. Tom Harvey Contractors delivers the premium standard of painting, flooring and refurbishment that SE3 owners expect.

Discretion, quality and a finish you'll be proud of are standard.
Blackheath's housing stock is exceptional — Georgian and Regency terraces and crescents (many Grade I and II listed), large Victorian and Edwardian villas, the private Cator Estate, and the listed modernist Span estates with their own strict design rules. The vast majority is owner-occupied, so nearly all our work here is in occupied family homes where the standard of finish really matters.
All work is fully insured, VAT registered, and backed by our 12-month workmanship warranty (24 months on projects over £10k). We're a proper Ltd company (No. 16499315) — not a man with a van. Every quote is itemised, every invoice is digital, and every job is done to a standard we're happy to put our name on.
Painting & Decorating
Blackheath
Finding a reliable painter and decorator in Blackheath is harder than it should be. Tom Harvey Contractors has been delivering high-quality interior and exterior painting and decorating across SE3 for over a decade — with the reviews to prove it.
We work on everything from single room refreshes in rented apartments to full flat and house redecorations for landlords and homeowners. Our decorators are experienced, tidy, and genuinely care about the finish they leave behind.
Blackheath properties require the finest decorating finishes — heritage paint ranges and breathable systems in the Georgian houses, restoration of cornicing and panelling, hand-painted joinery and sash windows, and the clean, precise finishes that the Span houses demand. Our decorators are experienced at both.
Popular decorating jobs we handle in Blackheath include: whole-house redecorations of Georgian and Victorian homes, exterior painting of stucco, render, sash windows and front doors, cornice and panelling restoration, hand-painted shutters and internal doors, Span house redecoration to estate guidelines, and heritage colour schemes for owner-occupiers.
We price decorating work as a lump sum — so you always know the cost upfront. No hourly surprises, no extras added later. For smaller one-off jobs we charge £85/hr + VAT with a minimum call-out of £95 + VAT.

Property Refurbishment
Blackheath
Need a full property refurbishment in Blackheath? Tom Harvey manages end-to-end property renovations across SE3 — from single-room upgrades to complete flat and house transformations covering every trade under one roof.
A full refurbishment in Blackheath typically covers: full redecoration throughout, new flooring, kitchen replacement or upgrade, bathroom renovation, carpentry and joinery, basic plumbing and electrical, and any plastering or repair work needed. We manage every trade so you have a single point of contact from survey to handover.
Full refurbishments in Blackheath are mostly whole-house family projects in period and listed homes — new kitchens, family bathrooms and en-suites, loft rooms, full redecoration and flooring — where listed-building consent, estate rules and original features need respecting. We manage every trade so you have one point of contact from survey to handover.
We've completed refurbishments across Blackheath and South East London ranging from £15,000 cosmetic refreshes (new flooring, full redecoration, bathroom update) to £65,000+ complete gut refurbishments — our project at John Spencer Square, N1 is a good example of the standard we deliver at the higher end.
For landlords in SE3, a well-executed refurbishment before reletting typically increases rental yield and reduces void periods — making it one of the best investments a landlord can make. For homeowners, a quality refurbishment ahead of sale can add significant value in a market where presentation matters.
