Our New Build Decorating Process

1. Initial Consultation

We begin by discussing your style preferences and your new build's specific requirements. Whether selecting paint colours, wallpaper designs, or finish types, we provide expert guidance helping you make optimal choices for your new space that you'll love for years.

2. Site Assessment

We visit your new build property to assess surface conditions and readiness, identify any preparation requirements, coordinate with other trades if construction is ongoing, plan the decoration schedule efficiently, and provide detailed, itemised quotations with absolutely no hidden costs or surprises.

3. Surface Preparation

New build surfaces require specific preparation procedures. We seal new plasterwork correctly using appropriate products, sand any rough or imperfect areas, fill minor imperfections and gaps, prime all surfaces appropriately for paint adhesion, and protect floors and fixtures throughout. Proper preparation of new plaster is absolutely crucial—rushing this fundamental stage causes problems within months.

4. Professional Decoration

Our decorators employ professional techniques applying paint smoothly and evenly to walls, ceilings, and all woodwork. Whether providing dramatic feature walls, contemporary matt finishes, durable satinwood trims, or expert wallpaper installation, we deliver precise, high-quality finishes showcasing your new property perfectly to buyers, tenants, or for your own occupation.

5. Quality Inspection

After completing decoration, we conduct rigorous inspection ensuring all surfaces are perfect, edges are clean and precise, coverage is complete and even, and no areas are missed or substandard. We apply touch-ups where necessary and ensure the space is immaculate and ready.

6. Final Handover

We walk through the property with you ensuring everything meets or exceeds your expectations. The space is left spotlessly clean, tidy, and ready for immediate use, whether for your own move-in, tenant occupation, or property marketing and sale.

Complete New Build Decorating Services in Wakefield

Our new build decorating services encompass every aspect of newly constructed property decoration:
Interior Wall Painting
Fresh, flawless wall painting is fundamental for new builds. We provide complete room painting in your chosen colour palette, dramatic feature walls adding visual interest, multiple finish options (matt, satin, silk), sophisticated two-tone colour schemes, and specialist preparation for new plasterwork. New plaster demands proper sealing and mist coats before final painting—we ensure this is executed correctly for results that last years, not months.
Ceiling Decoration
Ceilings in new builds must be perfect from the start. We deliver brilliant white ceiling finishes maximising light reflection, smooth, even coverage without roller marks, proper treatment and sealing of new plaster, and coving and cornice painting if architectural features are fitted. Perfect ceiling work creates spacious-feeling, bright rooms that showcase properties optimally.
Woodwork & Trim Painting
All interior woodwork receives our meticulous attention including skirting boards with crisp, clean lines, door frames and architraves, window frames and internal sills, internal doors (both faces and edges), staircases, banisters, and handrails, and built-in cupboards or shelving units. We use durable satinwood or gloss finishes specifically designed for new timber, providing proper undercoats and multiple finish coats delivering showroom-quality results.
Wallpaper Installation
Many homeowners personalise new builds with wallpaper. We expertly install impactful feature walls for bedrooms and living rooms, complete room wallcovering, designer and luxury wallpapers, and textured wallcoverings adding depth. Our wallpaper hanging expertise ensures perfect pattern matching, invisible seams, and flawless application.
Spray Finishes
For certain new build elements, spray finishing provides superior results impossible with traditional methods. We offer professional spray painting for internal doors achieving factory finishes, kitchen cabinets and fitted units, built-in wardrobes and storage, radiators and visible pipework, and large flat surfaces. Spray finishing delivers smooth, professional finishes that brushes and rollers cannot replicate.

  • Investment Protection – Your new build represents a substantial investment. Professional decoration protects this investment, ensuring finishes last, the property maintains its value, and no remedial work is needed. Read more about why hiring professional decorators is worth it.
