Painting & Decorating in Wandsworth
Painting and decorating across Wandsworth — single rooms, whole flats, sash window restoration, external doors and trim. Day rate £220/painter or fixed per room (£320 for walls + ceiling, prep included).
Walls and ceiling with proper prep — sanding, filling holes, taping skirting and architraves, dust-sheeting the floor. Two coats minimum, three if the base colour bleeds through (we tell you up front).
Studio to 3-bed flats end-to-end, typically 3–6 painter-days. We sequence rooms so you keep one habitable while the rest dries, and we stage furniture rather than move it out.
Sash window restoration (rebrush after sand-back, glaze putty), external doors (primer + 2 topcoats), Farrow & Ball matte finishes done right (cutting in by brush, not roller). Lincrusta and picture rail work on quote.
Wandsworth local information
The Boat Race starts at Putney and next runs on Sunday 11 April 2027. During the Wimbledon Championships, Southfields is the most convenient Tube station for the All England Club. Wandsworth can suspend parking bays for both events, so for a job near Putney Embankment or in Southfields, check the dates before you book.
Wandsworth mixes all-day controlled zones, for example 9.30am–5.30pm on weekdays and sometimes Saturdays, with one-hour zones meant to deter commuters. Double yellow lines apply at any time. A council bay suspension for a domestic removal needs seven clear working days' notice, not counting weekends or bank holidays, and applications after 3pm count from the next working day.
Northcote ward, between Wandsworth and Clapham Commons, is 49% terraced houses and 27% flats in converted houses; Tooting Bec and Southfields wards are both over 44% terraced (Census 2021). Battersea's Shaftesbury Park Estate is a conservation area of over a thousand Victorian houses. Measure large furniture against the hall and the stair turn before moving day.
Nine Elms ward is 98% purpose-built flats (Census 2021), and the Northern line has served Nine Elms and Battersea Power Station stations since September 2021. The Congestion Charge boundary follows Vauxhall Bridge and Vauxhall Bridge Road, so Nine Elms sits outside it. The ULEZ is different: it has covered every London borough since August 2023.
At the time of writing (November 2026), Wandsworth charges £24.90 to collect up to four bulky items, plus £11.10 for each extra item; landlord collections cost £106.70 for one to four. Items must be at street level, because crews will not collect from inside. Free Mega Skip Days run twice a month, and Smugglers Way accepts bulky items free.
About 36% of Wandsworth households rent privately (Census 2021). The University of Roehampton campus is in SW15, and the council runs eight-hour parking bays around St George's Hospital in Tooting. If you are moving out, book the end of tenancy clean and the van for dates before your check-out appointment, not after it.
