A ROOM REFRESH. A DIFFERENT FEEL.
Record the condition before agreeing the refresh
A handover date explains when the property is needed, not what decoration has been agreed. For your Tooting enquiry, gather condition photographs and a list of required surfaces. Separate scuffs, stains and damaged joinery from a straightforward colour refresh. Share the agreed colours and finish requirements without assuming a rental handover automatically means every ceiling, door and frame must be repainted.
For homes and workplaces in Tooting, Right Build covers interior and exterior painting, wallpaper and preparation. The service ranges from a modest refresh to a broader scheme; a no-obligation survey helps establish what your surfaces need.
THE SCOPE, SURFACE BY SURFACE
What can be included in the work?
For a tenancy refresh, the handover requirements should guide the surface list. Confirm what needs repainting, repairing or stripping before agreeing the work.
Interior surfaces
Prepare and paint walls and ceilings, remove existing wallpaper or paint, and hang lining paper or wallpaper.
Painted joinery
Doors, frames, architraves, skirting boards, window frames and sills, including stair rails and bannisters.
Floor finishes
Discuss staining, varnishing and painting timber floors, plus making good or replacing coving.
Outside surfaces
Preparation and repair of masonry and woodwork, allowing for suitable access and scaffolding where necessary.
Workplace decoration
Refresh wall colours, add wallpaper or a feature finish and include commercial rooms.
End-of-tenancy work
Define decorating and preparation needed for the agreed property handover.
FROM FIRST ENQUIRY TO FINAL DETAILS
How the decorating work comes together
Share the handover brief
Send the surfaces, required colours and intended handover date. Explain repairs and other work needing the same rooms.
Assess the surfaces together
Use the survey to identify repairs, preparation and material choices. A written scope and quotation should make clear what is included before a date is agreed.
Prepare around the agreed scope
Establish furniture and protection arrangements first. The preparation can then address the old coverings, damaged areas and joinery identified in the agreed brief.
Decorate with access in mind
The agreed paint or wallpaper is applied after preparation. Keep drying and usable routes in the programme, especially where doors or connecting spaces are involved.
Review the agreed finish
Use the final walkthrough to review the work against the agreed brief. Discuss any outstanding points and retain the paint or wallpaper references.

THE DETAILS THAT MATTER
Record the condition before choosing the work
Point out scuffs, damaged corners, staining and peeling paint. These are different problems and may need different preparation. If old wallpaper is coming off, allow for the exposed wall to be assessed. Explain any leak or mould history so its condition can be discussed rather than hidden behind fresh paint.
PLANNING YOUR DECORATING WORK
Work back from the handover carefully
Share the handover date and any cleaning, flooring or other work needing the same rooms. Explain when the property will be empty and who holds the keys. Confirm material supply and whether ceilings, doors and frames are included. This provides a useful survey brief without promising a completion date before the job is assessed.
PLANNING A PROJECT IN TOOTING
Check the property before changing outside finishes
Wandsworth publishes information about trade parking permits. Check the arrangements at the actual address rather than assuming visitor parking will suit the work.
Tell us about parking, key collection and loading access at the survey. Confirm which council covers the address if you are unsure.

I have had various work done by Petar and colleagues since last year and am always delighted with the work. This time he repaired and repainted water damaged ceilings in the flat I am going to sell and it is a brilliant job. Next time I hope he will do me a new kitchen! Such a "Find!!

Really great service from this team. Great consultation at the start of the project – didn’t feel like they were trying to rush through like other companies. Quote received in a couple of days; really good communication throughout as we went back and forth to book a date. Builder Ivan was lovely and very talented. He did an even better job than we expected AND the quote was bang on. Couldn’t recommend more.

BEFORE WE GET STARTED
A few useful answers
What condition photographs are useful for a tenancy refresh?
Show the whole room and closer views of damage or staining. Match them to the agreed surface list so repairs and repainting needs can be discussed without relying on a general handover description.
What if paper removal reveals uneven walls?
Tell us which rooms have wallpaper and whether it must be removed for handover. The condition beneath can affect the preparation needed before repainting.
Do you handle lighter room refreshes?
Targeted refreshing is part of the service. Share the agreed tenancy requirements so the enquiry identifies the rooms and surfaces actually needing attention.
Should earlier leaks be mentioned?
Yes. Handover pressure should not lead to simply covering a stain. Share its history and discuss the condition and preparation before the repaint is scoped.
