Painters & Decorators Hammersmith
Most of W6's housing stock is Victorian and Edwardian. Brackenbury Village — formally the Bradmore Conservation Area — has terraced cottages and four-storey houses with original features intact: high ceilings, picture rails, deep cornicing, lime plaster walls, timber sash windows. Brook Green similarly runs to large Victorian houses on three and four floors.
These properties need more preparation time than a modern flat. They also reward proper technique — lime-compatible primers, breathable paints, careful masking on original timber. Prima Decor has a five-star review from a client in Brook Green. That job involved full interior redecoration of an Edwardian house with original cornicing throughout.

Services in Hammersmith
All services are carried out by our own team. No subcontracting. Click each service to see how it applies to Hammersmith properties specifically.
Walls, ceilings, woodwork, joinery. Brackenbury Village and Brook Green interiors often have high ceilings — three metres plus — and wide hallways that need longer dry times and more coats. We factor this into every quote. Farrow & Ball and Little Greene as standard on W6 residential jobs.
View interior painting service →Masonry, render, timber, and metal. Hammersmith has four conservation areas — Brackenbury, Brook Green, Ravenscourt & Starch Green, and Crabtree. Exterior colour choices on properties within these areas may have restrictions. We check before quoting. 12-month workmanship warranty on all exterior jobs.
View exterior painting service →Farrow & Ball papers, silks, metallics, and hand-prints. High hallways in Victorian houses create long, heavy drops — alignment matters a great deal on pattern-matched papers. We measure and plan before any paper goes up. No guessing on the day.
View wallpapering service →Cabinet doors, built-in furniture, and architectural details. Hammersmith's period conversion flats often have fitted joinery worth preserving — spraying gives a factory-smooth finish that brushwork can't match. Full masking and protection of adjacent surfaces before any work starts.

What nobody else covers
Every competitor page for Hammersmith says "Victorian terraces, high quality finish, free quote." None of them explain what those Victorian terraces actually need — or why the conservation areas change what's possible on exterior work.
These are the four things that come up on almost every W6 job we quote.

Hammersmith has four conservation areas: Brackenbury (Bradmore), Brook Green, Ravenscourt & Starch Green, and Crabtree. External paint colours on properties within these designations can be subject to planning guidance. Painting previously unpainted brickwork in some cases needs consent. We check Article 4 restrictions before any exterior quote.
Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Brackenbury Village sell for well over a million pounds. Proper preparation on these properties takes longer — original cornicing needs careful masking, lime plaster needs breathable primers, sash windows need individually masked glazing bars. A quick cheap job on a £1.5M house is a false economy.
Three-metre ceilings are standard in Brackenbury Village and Brook Green. Larger rooms need more coats of paint to get even coverage top to bottom — the surface temperature differential between floor and ceiling level affects drying. Access also requires proper staging, not extending roller poles. We factor all of this into our programme and price.
Many W6 Victorian properties have original lime plaster, not modern gypsum board. Gypsum-based fillers and standard PVA primers are incompatible — they trap moisture and cause paint to fail within 12–18 months. On lime plaster, we use breathable primers and lime-compatible fillers specifically. This isn't common knowledge in the trade.
