Dustless Sanding
Sanding often plays a key role in the decorating process, as it prepares a surface before painting. it lifts the imperfections from the wood, metal or other surfaces - leaving the area ready for the next stage. Sanding down surfaces can lead to a large amount of dust filling the air. Traditionally, this would make a great deal of mess and would result in a lengthy clean up process.
As a decorating company with a great reputation, we perform dustless sanding across all of our projects. We are fully equipped with dustless sanding tools from the trusted manufacturer, Mirka Deos.

Gilding
Gilding encompasses an array of specialist decorative techniques including fine brush skills and sign writing. The term Gilding defines the application of gold and metal leaf as a final ornamentation or embellishment for interior and exterior surfaces such as wood, stone, metal, plaster and furniture.
Gold Leaf is really spectacular; it is an effect which cannot be created with any form of paint. Instead, thin leaves of real gold are applied giving the effect of a solid gold surface. Gold leaf can be used internally or externally as it is pure and can be left in its natural state as does not oxidise.
“HG decorating painted our bathroom - and really did an unbelievable job. As with all Victorian terraces, there are very few straight lines or right angles, and there work along the edges (in particular between the walls and ceiling) was so meticulous as to make it look like a new build! Dom was also a perfectionist - and took great care in prepping the plastered walls so that newly painted surface would be smooth. In all, the effect is really really lovely and we’re having them back to do the hallways and lounge!”
