Painting and decorating

Dexters Build Ltd is a full-service interior and exterior painting and decorating company that treats every customer like family. When you work with our team of experts, you can be confident you are dealing with professionals who treat your home as their own and never cut corners.

From our efficient project management to transparent pricing and expert colour guidance, we make every effort to keep your project smooth and stress-free. On top of that, we deliver painting results so stunning you will be proud to show them off.

Interior and exterior work we carry out

A good decorating job is about far more than the final coat. The preparation is where the quality really lies, and it is where many jobs are let down. Inside, we fill cracks, sand back flaking paint, make good walls and woodwork, mask and protect your floors and furniture, and apply the right primers and undercoats before the topcoats go on. We hang wallpaper, cut in neatly around fittings and finish ceilings, walls, skirting, doors and frames to a clean, lasting standard.

Outside, the right preparation matters even more, because exterior surfaces face everything the Bedfordshire weather can throw at them. Our exterior decorating includes:

  • Masonry painting with breathable, weatherproof coatings to protect render and brickwork.
  • Painting timber and uPVC windows, doors, fascias and barge boards.
  • Treating and protecting sheds, fences, gates and outbuildings.
  • Repairing and repainting flaking, blown or weathered surfaces after proper preparation.

Choosing colours and finishes

Picking the right colour and finish can feel overwhelming, so we are happy to guide you. We will talk through matt, eggshell, satin and gloss finishes, help you understand how light changes a shade through the day, and advise on hard wearing paints for busy areas like hallways, kitchens and bathrooms. For exterior work we recommend coatings designed to resist fading, cracking and algae so your home keeps its fresh look for years. Whether you want a subtle refresh or a bold new scheme, the choice is always yours and we make sure you are confident before a single tin is opened.

Decorating that finishes the job properly

Painting is often the last step that brings a project together, and we frequently decorate after other building work is complete. Once new fascias and soffits are fitted or a wall has been treated as part of our damp proofing service, fresh paint protects the surface and finishes everything to a high standard. We also repaint exterior woodwork and masonry alongside roof repairs and new guttering, so your whole property looks its best in one go. We turn up on time, work tidily and clear up properly at the end of every day.

FAQs

Common questions

Do you cover both interior and exterior painting?

Yes, we are a full-service interior and exterior painting and decorating company. We handle everything from a single room or feature wall to full house repaints, masonry coatings and exterior woodwork. The same friendly team looks after the whole job from start to finish.

How much preparation do you do before painting?

A great deal, because preparation is what makes a finish last. We fill cracks, sand surfaces, make good any damage, prime bare areas and protect your floors and furniture before any topcoat goes on. Cutting corners on prep is the most common reason paintwork fails, so we never skip it.

Can you help me choose colours and finishes?

Absolutely. We are happy to advise on colours, sheen levels and hard wearing paints to suit each room or exterior surface. We will explain how a shade may look in different light and recommend durable coatings for high traffic or weather exposed areas, but the final choice is always yours.

How long will my painting project take?

It depends on the size of the job and how much preparation is needed, but a single room is often completed in a day or two, while a full house repaint takes longer. We will give you a realistic timescale with your free quote and keep you updated as the work progresses.
