Peasedown St John and the Somer Valley
Peasedown St John sits on the edge of the Somer Valley with easy links to Midsomer Norton, Radstock and the surrounding villages. I cover Peasedown St John and the areas around it: Midsomer Norton, Radstock, Paulton, Chilcompton, Westfield, Stratton-on-the-Fosse, Writhlington and the rest of the Somer Valley.
Whether you're in the village centre or on one of the lanes between the villages, I offer a full range of painting and decorating. I've been working in this part of BANES for years — stone cottages, Victorian terraces, modern homes and everything in between. I know the property types and the practical side of getting to your door and getting the job done properly.
Midsomer Norton and Radstock — the heart of the Somer Valley
Midsomer Norton and Radstock are the two main towns in the Somer Valley, and I work in both regularly. They have a mix of traditional stone-built homes, Victorian terraces and modern estates. Many properties have character features that need a careful, experienced hand — lime plaster, older woodwork, stone and render.
The jobs I do here range from single room refreshes to full house redecorations, exterior repaints and wallpaper stripping and hanging. I quote every job individually so you know the cost upfront. Access and parking are usually straightforward; I'm used to working in family homes and keeping disruption to a minimum.
Paulton, Chilcompton, Westfield and Stratton-on-the-Fosse
The villages around Peasedown St John — Paulton, Chilcompton, Westfield and Stratton-on-the-Fosse — have a strong community feel and a mix of period cottages, family homes and modern housing. I cover all of them and the lanes in between.
Stone and render are common in this part of the Somer Valley, and many homes benefit from careful preparation and quality paint. I'm used to working with older building materials and the kind of surfaces you find in these villages. Whether you need interior work, exterior repainting or wallpaper, I'll give you a free quote and honest advice.
Writhlington, Kilmersdon and the Radstock side
Towards Radstock you've got Writhlington, Kilmersdon, Coleford and Holcombe — all areas I cover. These villages have a similar mix of stone-built and period properties, and I'm often asked for full redecorations, exterior work and preparation and repair.
