Painter & Decorator Cheltenham

Three Pillars provides interior and exterior painting and decorating throughout Cheltenham, from the Regency terraces of Montpellier and Lansdown to the Victorian and Edwardian streets of Tivoli, Charlton Kings and Prestbury.

 

Cheltenham sits at the heart of our daily service area and we are working somewhere in the town most weeks of the year.

 

Every job is carried out by the same decorator from first visit to final coat, so the person who quotes your work is the person who does it.

Painting & Decorating Services in Cheltenham

Cheltenham properties tend to ask more of a decorator than newer housing does, and we offer the full range accordingly.

•    Interior Painting for period rooms with high ceilings, deep skirtings and original cornice work

•    Exterior Painting for rendered Regency frontages, sash windows and stucco detail

•    Specialist Finishes including hand-painted panelling, limewash and eggshell on joinery

•    Restoration where paint has failed on older timber or lime-based substrates

•    Wallpapering across lining, traditional pattern and heavy contemporary papers

•    Furniture Painting for kitchen cabinetry, dressers and built-in units

Why Cheltenham Homeowners Choose Three Pillars

Cheltenham's housing stock is unusually demanding. Regency stucco needs breathable coatings and careful crack repair rather than a thick modern masonry paint that traps moisture and blows within a few winters.

​

Georgian and Victorian sash windows need the glazing bars cut in by hand, and the putty lines inspected before anything else happens. Original lath and plaster walls behave nothing like modern board, and rushing the preparation on them is the fastest route to a finish that fails in eighteen months.


We also work regularly with the Farrow & Ball and Little Greene palettes that are so common across Montpellier, Tivoli and The Suffolks. Those paints reward correct undercoating and punish shortcuts, particularly the deeper heritage colours where uneven porosity shows through immediately. Knowing how a specific finish behaves on a specific substrate is the difference between a room that looks right for a decade and one that looks patchy by the second spring.


A significant number of Cheltenham properties also sit within conservation areas or are listed, which places real constraints on exterior colour and material choice. We are used to working within those constraints rather than discovering them halfway through.

​

Alongside central Cheltenham we work throughout Montpellier, Lansdown, The Suffolks, Tivoli, Pittville, Prestbury, Charlton Kings, Battledown, Leckhampton, Up Hatherley and Bishop's Cleeve, and out towards Winchcombe and Southam.

FAQs

Do you work on listed buildings and conservation area properties in Cheltenham? 

Yes. Large parts of central Cheltenham sit within conservation areas and many properties are listed. We work within the resulting restrictions on exterior colour and material specification, using breathable coatings on stucco and lime-based substrates where the building requires it.

Can you work with Farrow & Ball and Little Greene paints?

Yes. We use both ranges regularly in Cheltenham properties. Deeper heritage colours from these ranges need correct undercoating for an even finish, particularly over older plaster where wall porosity varies.

Do you charge extra for travel to Cheltenham? 

No. Cheltenham is within our standard service area and quotations include travel.
