Rental property across the city
Private renting accounts for 20.2% of Ely households and social renting another 14.4%, so letting agents and landlords make up a real share of local decorating. Between lets we make good fixings, stain-block water marks and repaint in a washable finish that can be touched up next time.
For larger blocks, our experience with student rooms helps. We decorated 38 rooms at Westminster College in Cambridge and student flats for JR Pickstocks in Colchester, working to their schedules. The Westminster College project shows how rooms were handed back one at a time.
Shops, offices and schools in Ely
In occupied premises we agree working areas, keep fire exits clear and use low-odour products where people are working nearby. Shopfronts can be done early in the day so the door stays open. We hold £5 million public liability insurance and can send a copy of the policy for your records.

How we approach commercial painting
For an Ely business, Graham visits to see the building and talk through deadlines such as a lease handover or the start of term. We agree the order of rooms, the hours we can work and where materials are kept. Mirka dust-free sanders keep dust down in occupied rooms, and Belinda acts as your single point of contact throughout. The full method, products and FAQs are on our commercial painting page.
