Surrey · GU5
Shamley Green is arranged around a broad cricket green, with tile-hung cottages, handsome village houses and larger country properties in the lanes climbing towards Lordshill and Stroud Common. It is a genuinely picturesque Surrey village, and the decorating here is expected to match.
Decorating in Shamley Green
The houses around the green are characteristically Surrey: clay tile-hanging, brick and render, timber casements and low, comfortable rooms. Away from the green, larger homes sit in wooded plots with more extensive joinery and formal reception rooms. Both want a decorator comfortable with older surfaces and confident on fine woodwork.
A village this well kept notices detail — a crisp line where wall meets woodwork, a colour that suits the age of the room, sash windows that open properly once they are painted. I work by brush and roller throughout, which is what these houses were built for.
Around the green I am often working in a house that is already beautifully kept, so the job is to match an existing standard exactly — the same sheen, the same crispness of line, room to room.
