Landlord & Property Management Painting in South Kensington
Our landlord service is built around efficiency and reliability. For tenant turnarounds, we operate a rapid-response booking system — call us on the day a tenant vacates and we can typically start within 48 hours. We assess the property, provide a clear quotation, and complete the work to a defined specification within the agreed timeframe. Our standard landlord specification covers walls and ceilings in quality white or magnolia emulsion, woodwork in white satinwood, and all necessary preparation including filling nail holes, patching scuff marks, and spot-priming stains. For premium lets, we offer an enhanced specification with named-brand paints, colour consultation, and additional preparation for a show-home finish. For communal areas, we develop phased programmes that minimise disruption to residents, working floor by floor with clear communication to all parties. We provide a photographic record of completed work for inventory and check-in purposes, protecting landlords against future disputes about decoration condition.
