Painter & Decorator Isleham

Isleham's older buildings and newer streets

Historic England lists 34 buildings in the parish. Two are Grade I, among them St Andrew's church, and 32 are Grade II, including 1 Mill Street and 41 Mill Street. Isleham Hall on West Street dates from the 16th century, and the Priory of St Margaret of Antioch, founded in 1090 and later used as a barn, is now looked after by English Heritage. Isleham has a designated conservation area too.

Council Tax records count about 1,240 properties, and they span every era. Around 210 were built before 1919, the middle of the stock falls in the 1970s, and roughly 270 have gone up since 2009, with 80 recorded in 2021 alone.

Who lives in Isleham's homes

The 2021 Census counted 2,481 residents in 1,047 households. About 44% own outright and 35% have a mortgage, while the remaining fifth is split almost exactly between private and social renting, at 110 households each. Flats are rare, at about 2% of homes, and a third of households have four or more bedrooms.

Big detached houses mean long hallways, tall stairwells and plenty of joinery. Our pages on wallpapering in Isleham, exterior woodwork and house painting and kitchen painting and decorating look at those jobs in more detail.

From first visit to final walk-round

Graham makes the 21-mile trip from Landbeach to look at the work himself, at a time that suits you. A written quotation follows, usually by email, and extras are only done once you've agreed them. Belinda books the dates and keeps you updated.

We've been decorating since 1999. Our 12 decorators are City & Guilds or NVQ qualified, we are Dulux Select Decorators, and we carry £5 million public liability insurance. Payment waits until you're happy with the finished work.
