Smiths Painting and Decorating
Your Space, Elevated. With The Smiths Standard!
Covering: Ottery St Mary, Westhill & more.
Welcome to Smiths Painting and Decorating. I am James Smith, an independent sole trader dedicated to providing high-end interior and exterior decorating services across Ottery St Mary, Exeter, Sidmouth, and the wider East Devon area.
My approach to decorating is built on a simple philosophy: exceptional finishes are the direct result of meticulous preparation and premium materials. I don't believe in cutting corners. When you hire me, you are getting a craftsman who personally manages and executes every single aspect of your project, ensuring the highest standards from the first day of preparation to the final coat of paint.
Why Choose Smiths
Advanced Dustless Preparation
A flawless paint job requires a perfectly smooth surface, but it shouldn't involve covering your furniture and carpets in a layer of fine dust. I use a specialized dust-free sanding system for all my preparation work. By connecting my Maxxt 5.0 orbital sander directly to a Nilfisk ATTIX 33-2M M-Class dust extractor, I capture dust at the source before it ever becomes airborne. This allows me to achieve a flawlessly smooth substrate for painting while keeping your home perfectly clean and safe to live in while I work.
Expertise in Premium and Heritage Paints
I specialize in applying top-tier, breathable paint systems that offer superior durability and incredible depth of color. For period properties and heritage restorations, I frequently work with highly pigmented natural brands like Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, and Edward Bulmer. For busy, high-traffic family homes, I rely on advanced, scrubbable trade systems like Dulux Trade Diamond Matt and Diamond Satinwood. To guarantee razor-sharp transitions between wall colors and skirting boards, I exclusively use professional-grade FrogTape for all edging and masking.
Personal Accountability and Craftsmanship
As a sole trader, my business reputation is tied directly to my own two hands. I never subcontract your project out to a larger crew. I take immense personal pride in my craftsmanship, and my standard operating procedure involves treating your property with the utmost respect. Currently working toward accreditation with the Dulux Select Decorator scheme, I am committed to continuous professional excellence.
When you trust me with your home, the only thing I leave behind is a beautifully decorated space that is built to last.
