The Studio
A decorating practice, not a contractor.
Founded by James in 2007, TM Decorating works on a small number of homes at a time. Each project is measured, prepared and finished by hand, with the same eye a cabinetmaker brings to a single piece.
We work alongside homeowners, interior designers and architects who care more about how a room feels in ten years than how quickly it can be finished this week.

Our Process
Five considered stages.
- 01
Initial Consultation
We walk the space, discuss colour, finish and how you live in the room.
- 02
Detailed Quotation
A clear, itemised proposal — materials, preparation, timings, no surprises.
- 03
Surface Preparation
Filling, sanding, sealing. The unglamorous work that defines the result.
- 04
Precision Decorating
Careful application, crisp cut-ins and consistent, even coverage.
- 05
Final Inspection
We review every surface together in daylight before we leave.
