Clapham's housing stock is mostly Victorian — tall terraces around the Common converted into flats and maisonettes, family houses in Abbeville Village and the Old Town, plus Georgian houses on the north side and modern developments near Clapham North. A large share is rented to young professionals, so between-tenancy turnarounds are a big part of what we do here.
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
Clapham
Finding a reliable painter and decorator in Clapham is harder than it should be. Tom Harvey Contractors has been delivering high-quality interior and exterior painting and decorating across SW4 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.
Clapham properties need decorating that's high quality, quick and tidy — landlords want flats back on the market fast, families want the job done properly with the house kept liveable. Our decorators deliver both: careful prep, clean lines, and a finish that photographs well and lasts.
Popular decorating jobs we handle in Clapham include: between-tenancy repaints of converted flats, whole-house redecorations of Victorian terraces, ceiling and cornice repairs, hand-painted sash windows, skirting boards and internal doors, kitchen-extension and loft-room decoration, and feature walls and 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.

We manage every trade so you have a single point of contact from survey to handover.
Full refurbishments in Clapham range from fast, cost-effective landlord refits — new bathroom, new kitchen, flooring and redecoration to bring a tired conversion up to market standard — through to whole-house family projects with side-return kitchens and loft rooms. We manage every trade so you have one point of contact throughout.
We've completed refurbishments across Clapham and Lambeth 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.
