A Star Decorators

Interior decorating · Salisbury

Commercial interior decorators in Salisbury.

Interior walls, ceilings, joinery and detail work for retail, hospitality, healthcare and education. Designer spec literate. Substrate specific paint systems. Two pack capability where the environment demands it. Delivered across Salisbury and Wiltshire. Painters and decorators for homes across Salisbury and the surrounding villages. Salisbury is a cathedral city with a lot of older fabric to look after: medieval and Georgian frontages in the centre and the Cathedral Close, brick and flint cottages in the older streets, and the inter war and post war family homes spreading out through Bemerton, Harnham and Laverstock. Plenty of that stock is period property within or near the conservation area, so it rewards careful prep and a decorator who respects original features rather than painting over old work. We take on interior redecoration room by room, exterior masonry, render and timber chosen to suit the property, and on site restoration of tired aluminium window frames where the frames are sound rather than ripping them out. The work is quoted in writing before we begin, the house is dust sheeted and left clean at the end of each day, and we walk the finished job with you before we leave. We will tell you honestly at the visit if a surface needs more than a redecoration. Tell us what you would like done and we will come and look at the actual job.

Why Salisbury

Why choose us for interior decorating in Salisbury and Wiltshire.

Track record

  • Joinery, exposed steel, plaster and masonry handled on the same scope. One decorator, one handover
  • Designer spec literate. We read the schedule, flag ambiguities in writing and never substitute a paint without sign off
  • Two pack epoxy and polyurethane capability where substrate or environmental exposure demands it

Right fit when

  • The finish needs to read as designed, not just painted. Sheen consistency and edge definition matter.
  • Multiple surface types share the space (drywall, MDF joinery, exposed steel, masonry) and need coordinated system selection.
  • The PC needs a decorator that survives QS scrutiny on the final inspection, not just the practical completion walk.

Salisbury programme

How we run interior decorating schemes locally.

01

Survey

Substrate walk: plasterboard, MDF, exposed steel, masonry. Designer spec reviewed. Any ambiguity flagged in writing before mobilisation. Sample finish requirement agreed and cut on the actual substrate.

02

Specification

Stack per surface: walls in Diamond Matt or Sheen 4, joinery in Quick Dry Eggshell, exposed steel in two pack epoxy or PU where the environment demands it. Sheen levels agreed against physical samples, not RAL codes on paper.

03

RAMS

RAMS written for the project: dust control in occupied environments, COSHH for any solvent or two pack products, masking schedule per surface type. Issued before mobilisation.

04

Delivery

Phase by surface type: masking, prep, prime, top coats, demask. Designer or PC walks the line at each phase, not just at practical completion.

05

Handover

Photo record, touch up kit, dry film record where two pack systems were used. Live snag list cleared before sign off.

Frequently asked · Salisbury

What clients in Salisbury usually ask first.

Do you work on period homes near the Cathedral Close?
Yes. We do proper prep and treat original features with care, and we flag anything that needs particular attention before we start.
Do you cover the villages around Salisbury?
Yes. We cover the city and the surrounding villages. Ask us if you are just outside and we will confirm.
Is the written quote free?
Yes. We visit, look at the actual job and send a clear written quote with no obligation. Extras along the way are agreed with you first.
Can you work to a designer's finish schedule?
Yes. We read the schedule, query ambiguities in writing before mobilisation, sample cut on the actual substrate, and never substitute a paint without the designer's sign off.
What about joinery specified in oil based finish?
Quick Dry Eggshell water based is our standard. Same hardness as oil, no yellowing, dry within 4 hours. Traditional oil based is available if the spec explicitly calls for it.
Can you do bespoke colour matching?
Yes. Pantone or RAL matched on site, sampled on the substrate and signed off before mobilisation. We carry mixing kit for minor site adjustments.
How do you specify exposed steel?
Two pack epoxy or polyurethane for industrial or high exposure environments, water based hard wearing for indoor commercial. We choose the system by exposure class.
What's the snagging process?
A live snag list is maintained by the site supervisor throughout delivery and cleared before handover. Anything that emerges after handover is dealt with as a priority.
