Lansdown · BA1painting & decorating
Premium renovations, listed building work and heritage refurbishments for Lansdown's elevated Georgian and Regency properties — where expectations are highest.
Painting and decorating across Bath — internal and external, from single rooms to full redecorations. The finish is only ever as good as the prep, so filling, sanding and sealing is where we spend the time. Period properties get breathable paint systems and limewash where the walls need them; modern homes get hard-wearing trade finishes. Sash windows, woodwork, wallpaper and feature walls — all in the same crew, all in the quote.
Lansdown is Bath at its most architecturally distinguished — sweeping Regency terraces like Lansdown Crescent, the eccentric silhouette of Beckford's Tower on the hill above, substantial Georgian villas, and some of the city's finest period interiors. Work here is never routine. Every project demands rigorous attention to period detail: correctly specified lime renders and mortars, accurate sash window restoration or replacement, period-appropriate internal finishes, and the kind of project management that protects premium properties throughout the build process. Our team is experienced in the Listed Building consent process and conservation officer liaison that many Lansdown properties require before works can proceed.
If any of these sound like your property, this is the service you want.
Paint applied to wet or unsealed plaster — the timeline includes proper drying and prep
Prep skipped — filling, sanding and sealing is where a paint job is won or lost
Impervious masonry paint on a solid stone wall — traps moisture and peels; breathable systems only
One coat where two are needed — coverage specified at quote, not discovered on the ladder
Woodwork painted over varnish without keying — flakes within a year
Furniture and floors left unprotected — everything sheeted, every day
What painting & decorating typically involves on the housing stock here.

Lansdown sits above the city off the A4187 Lansdown Road, with buses up the hill from the centre. Access for scaffolding and materials on the crescents is arranged in advance around resident parking.
Affluent owner-occupiers of listed Georgian and Regency properties, plus downsizers in the villas — clients who expect the same standards they would insist on in Bath itself.
Listed Building consent management, conservation officer liaison and premium-site logistics — including property protection protocols — are standard at this level of work, and they are reflected in the programme and the fixed quote, not hidden in it.
Verified reviews from recent work.
Older property, kitchen with apex ceiling. Very pleased with the professional finish, friendly team. I was asked before painting commenced what I would like. All surfaces fully protected and covered, no mess left. Impressed with the high standard. Kitchen looks exactly how I wanted it to look with the desired finish.
