Painter & Decorator Littleport

Littleport sits on the River Great Ouse about 6 miles north-east of Ely, and roughly 16 miles by road from our base in Landbeach. Graham drives over to see every job before quoting, and then decorators from our team of 12 carry out the work.

A town that has grown quickly

Littleport had 4,107 households in the 2021 Census, with just under 10,000 residents. Council Tax records show how much of that is recent: about 38% of properties were built in 2000 or later, and more than 1,200 since 2009. Semi-detached houses are the most common type, at 39% of homes.

Newer houses need different decorating from older ones. Fresh plasterboard can settle and show cracks along the joints in its first few years, which we fill before painting. The older part of the stock, about 12% from before 1919, brings its own jobs: uneven walls, period woodwork and sash windows.

Listed buildings and the Littleport conservation area

There are 9 listed buildings in Littleport parish, including the Grade II* Church of St George and Grade II buildings at 5 High Street and 3 Station Road. The town also has a conservation area. For exterior work on a listed building or in the conservation area, check with East Cambridgeshire District Council before changing colours or materials.

Painting and decorating work we take on in Littleport

Most enquiries are for interior decorating, painting house exteriors and hanging wallpaper. We also paint kitchen units, respray uPVC frames, paint sheds and fences, and bring in our own plasterers and floor specialist when a job needs them.

Courtlin SGoogle review · Jun 2023

Fantastic decorators! Not only was their service good value and of a very high quality, they also offered invaluable advice. Highly recommend.

Andrea Di AntonioGoogle review · Feb 2023

Graham Halpenny Decorators is a professional, friendly and exceptional company. Belinda and Graham went above and beyond to explain all the possible options to us and find a suitable time to start the job. They are excellent decorators, very patient, skilled, tidy and courteous. The quality of the work is outstanding and the final result is so impressive that after calling them for the first time to redecorate some rooms in my house, I called them again shortly after to redecorate the remaining ones. I would recommend them unreservedly.

Claire JenningsGoogle review · Nov 2018

Graham and his team did a fantastic job plastering pretty much our entire house. They worked flat out to complete a challenging job in a short amount of time and were always more than happy to give advice. A brilliant job and I would thoroughly recommend them.
