Georgian houses and the historic centre
Lichfield's historic core has more than 200 listed buildings, with many fine examples of Georgian architecture, including Georgian houses that have been converted into shops and offices. The Cathedral Close is surrounded by mostly 18th-century listed buildings, and the city grew as a busy coaching centre in that century. Georgian homes often have tall sash windows, panelled doors, cornices and decorative plasterwork, so the decorating is slower and more detailed: careful repairs, the right primers, and paint chosen to suit the age of the building.
Conservation area and listed buildings
Much of Lichfield's centre sits within the Lichfield City Conservation Area, and many of its buildings are listed. If your home is listed, changes to the exterior, including colour and some materials, can need consent, and Lichfield District Council is the authority to ask. We're happy to work to the colours and finishes you've agreed, and to talk through which paints suit older walls, timber and plaster, so the work looks right now and holds up.
Family homes around the city
Beyond the historic centre, Lichfield has plenty of suburban family homes built in the later twentieth century. These need a different approach from a Georgian house: more often it's refreshing tired walls, woodwork and ceilings, and choosing hard-wearing finishes for hallways, stairs and children's rooms. Tell us about your home in the quote form and we'll explain what's involved before you commit.

Questions about decorating in Lichfield
Do you decorate listed buildings and homes in the Lichfield conservation area?
Yes. We decorate period homes in Lichfield, including those in the conservation area. If your property is listed, check with Lichfield District Council before changing exterior colours or materials, and we'll work to whatever is approved.
How do you decorate old sash windows and timber?
We scrape and sand back loose paint, repair any damaged timber where needed, prime bare wood and finish with the right paint for the surface. Old windows and doors take more time than new ones, and we explain what's involved in your written quote.
