When it comes to home improvement, the temptation to DIY can be strong. However, hiring a professional decorator can often make the difference between a good result and a truly exceptional one. At Emporium Decorators, we’ve helped hundreds of homeowners across London and the South East avoid costly errors while transforming their living and working spaces beautifully.
Here are 7 compelling reasons why investing in a professional decorator is well worth it:
Every room has its own character—and challenges. Whether it’s natural lighting, awkward corners, or outdated fixtures, a professional decorator knows how to bring out the best in your space. We consider layout, proportions, style preferences and function before recommending any solutions.

There’s a reason decorators spend years perfecting their craft. From smooth walls and precise paint lines to expertly applied wallpaper and custom fittings, the quality of workmanship from a pro simply can’t be matched by DIY efforts—especially in high-end or heritage properties.

DIY decorating often takes longer than expected. Between juggling materials, researching techniques, and fixing mistakes, you could spend weeks on what a pro can do in days. Hiring a qualified team means your project is completed efficiently, with minimal disruption to your daily life.
As professional decorators, we have access to premium, trade-only products that aren’t available in standard retail shops. Whether it’s designer wallpaper, long-lasting paint, or specialist tools, we use the best materials for a durable, high-end finish.
While hiring a decorator might seem like an added expense, it can actually save you money. How? By avoiding wasted materials, costly redos, and rushed decisions that lead to disappointment. Professional decorators plan ahead, work with precision, and ensure every pound you spend adds long-term value to your property.
Decorating isn’t just about painting—it involves planning, measuring, sourcing, and managing timelines. At Emporium Decorators, we handle every stage of the process so you don’t have to. From initial site visits to the final clean-up, we ensure a smooth, stress-free experience.
Whether you're preparing to sell, renting out your property, or simply upgrading your lifestyle, a professional finish can significantly improve visual appeal and resale value. Stylish, well-executed interiors attract attention—and buyers.
