Period Properties

Painting and decorating traditional and period properties requires a level of attention, dedication and care that very few painting and decorating companies can provide.

At The Bristol Decorating Company Ltd, we offer a highly flexible painting and decorating service, based on three decades of industry experience, competitive prices and a carefully considered, individually tailored and high quality approach to period property painting.

We specialise in the complete re-decoration, protection and preservation of older properties and listed buildings.

We are aware of the particular requirements of such buildings and can advise on the use of appropriate materials and the use of traditional colours.

We also take into account the character and original features of the property when carrying out any period property work.

Bringing period features back to life

We are able to repair, maintain and decorate period features such as sash windows, shutters and panelled doors. 

Decayed joinery can be replaced using the original profiles or repaired using the Repair Care resin.

Our talented and extensively experienced painters and decorators will match any work with existing paintwork and furniture to retain the authenticity and traditional feel of your property.

Restoring existing features

Cornicing which has lost its relief detail due to the build up of paint over many years can be carefully restored to its original state by using an appropriate paint stripper. 

We take great care when working on original and often fragile plasterwork.
