Their quote was very competitive, with no unexpected or hidden costs along the way. They arrived on time every day, treated both our home and our pets with the utmost care and respect, and the quality of their work was exceptional.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lewisham Painters to friends and family, and we’ll definitely be using them again for future projects.
★★★★★I recently had my home repainted by Lewisham Painters and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the results. From the first contact to the final finish, everything was handled professionally. The team was polite, punctual, tidy and paid great attention to detail throughout the job. The paintwork completely transformed the space and gave the house a fresh, modern feel. They also took the time to prepare everything properly rather than rushing the work, which really showed in the final result. It’s hard to find reliable tradespeople these days, but Lewisham Painters exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality painting and decorating services in London.

Questions about communal area painting
How do you price communal areas?
From a specification: number of floors and landings, entrances, doors and handrails, fire-door requirements and working hours. The Instant Quote gives a budget range; a fixed price follows a walk round with the managing agent.
Can the work be done outside normal hours?
Yes — evenings or weekends can be built into the quote where residents or trading hours require it.
Is the online price a quote?
No. It is an indicative range worked out from your answers using our published rate table. A decorator reviews everything you sent, including photos, and confirms a fixed written quote — after a short video call or visit if the job needs one.
Do I have to give my details to see a price?
No. The Instant Quote shows the range first. Contact details are only asked for if you want a decorator to confirm a fixed quote.
Who supplies the paint?
Either. The estimate assumes trade-quality paint supplied by the decorator; you can choose a premium brand or supply your own, and the range adjusts.
Which areas do you cover?
The London Borough of Lewisham — Catford, Brockley, Forest Hill, Sydenham, Deptford, Blackheath, Hither Green, Lee, New Cross and the rest of the borough — plus neighbouring parts of Southwark, Lambeth and Greenwich. Put your postcode in the quote and we will say straight away if it is outside our range.
