A finish in a Knightsbridge house
is held to a different standard.

The housing stock around Hans Place, Beauchamp Place and Walton Street is unusually high in specification: listed Georgian and Victorian townhouses, Edwardian mansion blocks, and the high-spec apartment buildings that line Knightsbridge itself. The materials, the detailing and the tolerance for compromise are not the same as elsewhere.

The Knightsbridge brief is almost always the same: Listed-property sympathetic redecoration, premium paint specification, hand-cut detail throughout, sash-window restoration, with consent coordination where applicable.

This is the work we do. We prepare surfaces properly, prime correctly, and finish by hand to a level you cannot reproduce with a roller. The painters are trusted members of our crew, not a sub-contracted team brought in for the day.

From surface prep
to the final cut-in.

Every painting and decorating project we deliver in Knightsbridge is end-to-end. One team. One point of contact. One standard.

01

Surface Preparation

Fillers, sanding, prep coats, mould treatment, lining paper where needed. The work that decides whether a finish lasts five years or fifteen.

02

Premium Paint Specification

Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, Paint & Paper Library, Edward Bulmer. Specified to suit the room’s light, the finish you want, and the rest of the house.

03

Hand-Cut Edges

Cut-in by hand, not masked. Crisp lines at cornicing, skirting, panelling and door frames. The visible quality difference.

04

Period Joinery Restoration

Sash window restoration, panelling repair, door refurbishment, hand-stripping where the building demands it.

05

Exterior Decorating

Stucco, render, sash window exteriors and front doors, prepared and finished to specification with appropriate masonry, wood and metal paints.

06

Snagging & Handover

Walk-through with you before sign-off. Touch-ups handled on the spot, no return visits needed.

The detail that separates a finish
that lasts from one that doesn’t.

A decoration in a Knightsbridge listed townhouse is a fundamentally different brief from a decoration elsewhere. The constraints are different, the planning environment is different, and the standard the building holds you to is different.

We have refurbished decoration projects across SW1X and SW7 long enough to know how the Hans Town and Knightsbridge Conservation Area rules apply in practice, where listed-building consent is non-negotiable, how the major mansion-block managing agents structure approvals, and how to deliver into addresses where porter coordination and lift protection matter as much as the work itself. All of it is factored in at quote stage.

★★★★★

I’ve hired Igor to do the flooring in my kitchen and I can assure this has been one of the best decisions I made. My kitchen now looks immaculate and I couldn’t be happier with ProCraft’s services. Fast, reliable and delivers quality to your needs. Very well recommended.

We needed help with repairs after a water leak. Igor came back to me quickly with a quote and completed the job that weekend. Would highly recommend.

What Knightsbridge clients
most often ask.

Every painting and decorating project is priced individually. Igor visits the property, assesses scope, surface preparation requirements, paint specification and finish level, and provides a detailed written quotation itemised line by line. Standard 20% VAT is shown separately on every quote.
We work with Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, Paint & Paper Library, Edward Bulmer and other premium UK and European paint houses. Specification is agreed at the survey, matched to the room’s light, the desired finish, and the rest of the house.
Yes. Sash window restoration, panelling repair, door refurbishment and hand-stripping are part of our regular brief in Knightsbridge. Listed-building consent is coordinated where any change affects historic fabric.
Yes. Exterior stucco, render and sash-window finishes are part of the same service. We use appropriate masonry, wood and metal paints and coordinate scaffolding, neighbour notification and freeholder approvals where applicable.
A typical interior decoration project in Knightsbridge takes 1 to 4 weeks on site, depending on scope, surface preparation, and whether period joinery restoration is included. We confirm exact timelines in writing after the property visit.

A decoration is rarely the only brief.

Many of our Knightsbridge clients commission us for the surrounding work too — kitchens, bathrooms, joinery, complete refurbishment. Each can be delivered alone or as part of a single programme.

We deliver decoration projects
across Knightsbridge’s neighbours, too.

If you are just outside Knightsbridge, we almost certainly cover you for decoration. Explore our adjacent area pages.
