WE LOOK UPON INTERIOR PAINTING AND DECORATING AS AN ART FORM

Painting is all about casting your space in specific colour or light that evokes comforting emotions and thoughts, and of course beauty – after all, we all like to impress our guests!

To say that Decorating & Restoration Service are perfectionists would be an understatement – we take great pride in our work and attention to detail is extremely important to us. Nowhere is that attention to detail more important than with interior decorating.

Unlike back in the 1940s, there is now a wide range of products, and finishes available to suit all manner of creative applications, whether your building is modern, classic, or a period property, there is always a product to suit all styles and tastes

Lincrusta specialists

We are advanced Lincrusta installers and can hang Lincrusta patterns to any surface in your property from feature walls to grand ceiling areas. You can call us to arrange an appointment where we can discuss your ideas and tastes. Whether it be a single colour painted over your Lincrusta or say a broken coloured effect, we can tailor to your needs! You will be able to look at mounted patterned samples of your interest so you can get one to one with the products and upon request, we can create any decorative finish for you. We do however have to make a charge for this service as it is quite time-consuming and also materials costs but this would be taken off the invoice if you decide to go ahead with the decorative effects. If you are interested in either Lincrusta wallcoverings, friezes, dado panels, borders or decorative effects, then please visit the main Lincrusta website as they show lots of different styles of Lincrusta with all the information and product ranges for you to look at – lincrusta.com

At Decorating & Restoration Service, we are an advanced Lincrusta installer and can hang Lincrusta patterns to any surface in your property from feature walls. Both oil-based and water-based paint can be successfully applied to Lincrusta and it can, therefore, provide a base for effects from simple colour washes or marbling, scumbling and glazing to more elaborate gilding and ver de mer treatments. Lincrusta is commonly found in Victorian properties and restoration projects.

Lincrusta can create just about any decorative effect one might desire to be accomplished in any or all rooms to a property. Patterned Lincrusta sheets can cover an entire room, as well as its ceilings or serve to spot accentuate different areas or structures of a single room. Once applied to the wall or ceiling, Lincrusta can last a lifetime or more. As it ages and continues to dry the ornately patterned product becomes increasingly tougher and impervious to damage.

We look forward to the next venture on;; de-shabby” or what is newly known in Henham as ;; The big smart White house”.

Extremely competent and did a very good job.

We needed some work done on our house and we saw Roy working at another house in our village and were very impressed with what he had done. We were so glad we did, as the work on our house has been done to a very high standard. Some of our neighbours have also mentioned how good it looks. We wouldn’t hesitate to use him again and would definitely recommend him to others.

Val McGow

Simply the best!…

To quote Tina Turner “Simply the best! Just a note to compliment Roy at DRS, As others have said, he works hard and his standard of work is superb. I needed a rush job recently and found Roy by the usual local web search, that’s always chancy and sometimes you regret it but not this time! He quoted quickly with a decent price, arrived on time and finished the job when he said he would, then popped in to do a quick re-touch to finish off without being asked – very professional and personable. In short, ‘he does what it says on his tin’, what more can anyone ask? I have a similar rush job looming and I hope he can squeeze it in, the job’s definitely his if he can! Cheers Roy, thanks a bunch.

Steve English

Thorough, expert and an adaptable service…

We have been delighted with Decorating & Restoration Service in the decoration of our home. We received thorough, expert and an adaptable service. The work was carefully planned, scheduled and expertly carried out to our agreed time limits. Mr. Stoneman is a respectable and adaptable craftsman, broadly trained and with a wide and reliable practice in decoration. We will be using his services again whenever he is available.

Bernardo

The latest high quality materials and techniques…

Decorating & Restoration Service has done a lot of excellent work over the past few years on our large Edwardian house. Roy has solved numerous problems that have stumped other people, including water ingress around gables, windows and doors, and tricky restoration tasks. He has always been keen to restore, preserving the character of the house, while using the latest high quality materials and techniques. I’ve been impressed by Roy’s willingness to discuss options and explain different possible approaches, and with the excellence of the decoration finish he produces. I have no hesitation in recommending him and the company.

Barry Tennison

I was impressed the pride that he took in his work…

The oak windows in the house built in 1845 are still original but were seriously rotten. I researched and came up with a company called Decorating & Restoration Service who has qualified contractors and Certificated for the use of The Repair Care System. I was impressed with the work rate of Roy and also the pride that he took in his work. When he got into the job the decay in some of the windows were much worse than appeared but nothing fazed him and with a combination of new wood, resin and putty the specialist system gave an amazing end result.

Steve English

Very competent and reliable and did an excellent job…

Decorating & Restoration Service was very competent and reliable and did an excellent job on painting the exterior of our house which included some areas that were very difficult to access. Good attention to detail, Roy removed all gutters and downpipes before starting the work.

Viv Bolton

The quality of his work was of the highest order…

We were seeking some help to paint our new home (internal walls/ceilings) and came across Roy’s website following a quick Google search. Having made initial contact, immediately we heard back and Roy was willing to come over and price up the works over a weekend which was extremely helpful.

From start to finish Roy was efficient, courteous and, most importantly of all, the quality of his work was of the highest order. My wife and I were extremely impressed and delighted with the decorating, which has really helped to lift our home.

Roy’s keen eye and excellence through detail was evident on every wall and in every piece of cutting in. He was a pleasure to deal with and has a good sense of humour too! We will be in no hesitation to call on his services in future for other works around the house and can wholeheartedly recommend him to others.
