🖌️ Restoring a Victorian Beauty

📸 Exterior masonry restoration and decorating
📸 Detailed preparation work to original features

There’s something special about working on period properties. Every moulding, corbel, window surround and decorative feature deserves patience and attention to detail.

Preparation is where the magic happens. The finish is only ever as good as the work underneath.

This project involved:

✔ Extensive preparation
✔ Internal windows
✔ External windows
✔ Masonry repairs and painting
✔ Ironwork finishing
✔ Careful protection of original features

One brushstroke at a time, another Victorian gem brought back to life.

“We contacted Ann through a recommendation from a trusted friend, and it proved to be an excellent decision. Ann and Mike decorated three separate areas of our house to a thoroughly professional standard. In fact, it is the highest quality workmanship we have experienced.

Mike is exceptionally attentive when preparing walls and surfaces, while Ann’s paint finishing is equally meticulous. Adjoining areas were carefully protected throughout the work, and they kept everything clean and tidy from start to finish. They were also a pleasure to have in our home.

The project was completed ahead of schedule and exactly in accordance with the agreed quotation. We would not hesitate to recommend them. Excellent.”

Ann Elizabeth has decorated most of our house over the past 2 years. As well as being a lovely lady, she is very professional - her work is always finished to a high standard. Before painting she and Mike spend all the time that’s needed to ensure the end result is perfect.

Review:
I wholeheartedly recommend Ann Elizabeth Decorating. They have done two jobs for me now, one inside and one outside. For the interior job please see my Checkatrade review. The recent exterior job included prepping and painting the two chimney stacks from the ground up; prepping and painting the front door and its surround; prepping and varnishing the woodwork of my garden room; prepping and painting the railings on a stoop. Both the prepping and painting are thorough to the nth degree. No detail is missed. I am very happy with the outcome. I include some photos so you can decide yourself...

Defects repaired. Calm restored.

This lounge in Southbourne needed more than just a coat of paint —
filled, sanded, and brought back to an even surface before decorating.

Because a good finish isn’t just what you see…it’s what’s been taken care of underneath.

Soft neutral tones, clean lines, and a space that now feels
