Furniture Painters Across North Hampshire
When you want to do more with your home furniture, we can help. We'll paint, stain or shabby chic your furniture to your exact need.
There's a particular moment that happens when a homeowner in Fleet or Aldershot looks at a piece of furniture they've had for ten years and realises the colour scheme of the room around it has moved on without it. The piece still works. The wood is sound. The drawers run true. But the dark oak that fitted the old sitting room looks heavy now, against the pale grey walls that came in last Spring.
That's when the homeowners across north Hampshire call us.
We hand-paint furniture for homes from Aldershot through to Basingstoke — collecting from your home, painting in our workshop near the Surrey/Hampshire border, and returning the piece in your choice of colour, back in your room, usually within two weeks.
Our Workshop
Our workshop is in West End, just inside the Surrey side of the Surrey/Hampshire border. North Hampshire is on our doorstep. We collect and deliver across a regular service area that includes:

If you're further west — Andover, Whitchurch, Winchester — we still come, we just plan the collection and delivery into a single round trip. Mention where you are when you call and we'll let you know what's possible.
How We paint Your Furniture
What We Collect, paint and Return
When you've decided to commission a piece, we'll give you a quote within the day.
If you go ahead, we collect on a date that suits you. We bring covers and straps; you don't have to clear a path through the house or take anything apart yourself.
In the workshop the piece comes in for sanding, dust extraction, knot priming where it needs it, an undercoat, then two coats of your chosen paint. We use Dulux Diamond eggshell, Dulux Heritage, and Farrow & Ball colours depending on the colour and the finish you've asked for. Where the piece is being waxed, we use Annie Sloan finishing wax.
The piece comes back to you when it's dry, settled, and pieced back together — handles refitted, drawers running, hinges greased. You see the finished result in the room it lives in. That moment matters more than anything we can say in writing.
Two Weeks in Most Cases
Most furniture takes two weeks from collection to return. Larger pieces — a sideboard, a dresser, a double wardrobe — sometimes stretch to three. We'll tell you the timescale when we see the piece. If you've a deadline (a house move, a Christmas, a guest), say so up front; we can typically plan around it.
The Kind of Furniture That's Worth saving
Solid wood that's still solid is the answer most of the time. Pine, oak, mahogany, beech, ash. Old construction with proper joints. A pine Welsh dresser from the eighties, an oak sideboard from the seventies, a mahogany chest of drawers that came from a parent's house. These pieces were built to last and they will, with a coat of paint that suits the room they're in now.
We turn down work where the piece is past saving — particle-board carcasses that have started to swell, joints that have given up — and we'll tell you on the visit if that's the case. We'd rather tell you than take the work and disappoint you.
