Decorating Steps — Tom Harvey

Our Process

Decorated to perfection. Every time.

Five careful steps — from protecting your home to the final clean. Nothing rushed, nothing overlooked.

Step 01

Protect what matters.

We carefully mask all light switches, door handles, fixtures, and fittings before a single drop of paint touches your walls. Everything that shouldn't get painted, won't.

Protection Masking and protection
Step 02

Cover every surface.

Hardwood floors get full protection sheeting. Carpets are covered with specialist carpet protection. Where possible, we use traditional dust sheets — kinder to the environment, and better for your home.

Floor Care Floor protection
Step 03

Prepare the walls.

We remove nails, fill holes, address cracks, and cover any stains before painting begins. A flawless finish starts with a flawless surface — and we don't skip this step.

Prep Work Wall preparation and filling
Step 04

Paint with precision.

Once surfaces are smooth and ready, we paint walls, ceilings, or woodwork — exactly as outlined in your scope of work. No surprises, no shortcuts. Just clean, professional results.

Painting Professional painting
Step 05

Leave it spotless.

When we're satisfied with the result, we remove all debris, dispose of waste, and perform a light clean of the area. If a professional clean has been arranged, we'll have the space ready for the cleaners to arrive.
