Felton is an attractive village on the River Coquet, known for its medieval bridge, the stone-built houses along its main street and the parish church of St Michael and All Angels. The old core of the village is built largely from local sandstone, with slate roofs and timber windows, while more recent housing has been added on the edges, including family homes and bungalows. The surrounding countryside adds farmhouses and converted farm buildings.
Stone cottages in Felton need a sympathetic approach. Many have thick walls and older plaster, sometimes lime-based, which needs breathable paint to let moisture escape. Window reveals tend to be deep, and old timber doors and windows may carry layers of paint that need careful preparation. Our woodwork painting covers doors, windows, skirting and staircases, with sanding and priming done properly before new coats go on.
Homes close to the river can be susceptible to damp and shade, and the village's position in rural Northumberland means cold winters and plenty of rain. Exterior painting is best saved for late spring and summer, when walls and timber are dry. We use weatherproof painting systems on exposed woodwork and fences.
Newer homes in the village tend to need more straightforward work: upgrading builder-grade paint, decorating extensions or refreshing rooms before sale. Holiday cottages and second homes in the Coquet valley also need regular attention, often to tight schedules between bookings. Whatever the age of your home, we focus on careful preparation, clear communication and leaving the property tidy at the end of each day.
Not usually. Older stone cottages often have lime plaster or solid walls that need to breathe. Standard vinyl emulsion can trap moisture, causing flaking and damp patches. Breathable mineral or clay paints, or limewash, tend to perform far better. We check the walls first and recommend a suitable system for each room.
For villages like Felton we plan the work in sensible blocks, arranging materials in advance so time on site is used well. We agree start dates and the order of rooms with you before we begin, and we keep you updated if weather affects any outdoor work.
Often, yes. If the timber is basically sound, sanding back loose paint, filling small defects and priming bare wood before repainting gives the windows renewed protection. Where timber has rotted, a joiner may need to repair it first, and we will tell you honestly what we find.
Soft, muted colours often sit well with local sandstone, such as warm whites, stone shades, greens and blue-greys. Inside, chalky finishes suit older rooms. We are happy to discuss ideas, but the choice is yours, and for exterior colours it is worth considering the look of the street.
Yes. Holiday lets need hard-wearing, easily cleaned finishes, as guests come and go through the year and marks build up quickly. Work has to fit around bookings, so tell us the dates you have available and we will plan around them. That way the property is fresh, dry and ready for the next guests on time.

Yes. We decorate interiors, including walls, ceilings and woodwork, and also paint exteriors such as windows, doors, fascias, masonry and garden timber. Outdoor work is timed for the drier months so the finish can cure properly.
Yes. We can decorate after builders, plasterers or joiners have finished. New plaster needs to dry thoroughly first, which can take several weeks, and we use a diluted mist coat so the paint bonds well to fresh surfaces.
Yes. We cover floors and furniture carefully before preparation begins, mask edges and fittings, and tidy up at the end of each day. Original floorboards, flagstones and stone floors are given extra protection throughout.
We do. We can strip old paper, repair and prepare the walls and then hang new wallpaper, from lining paper on uneven plaster to patterned papers for feature walls, bedrooms or a cottage sitting room.
