Kitchen Cabinet Painting in Chelsea: What to expect
Most Chelsea (SW3/SW10) kitchens we quote are in georgian townhousess where the cabinetry is solid but the colour is dated. We strip, key-sand, fill, prime with a specialist adhesion primer and finish in Tikkurila Helmi or Little Greene Intelligent Eggshell — either by spray (factory-style finish) or by hand. Allow 3–5 working days from start to handover, full appliance protection and a hard-wearing, washable finish that holds up to family use.
Chelsea's wide, tree-lined streets are home to some of London's most carefully maintained properties. Whether you're refreshing a Georgian townhouse on Royal Hospital Road or updating a contemporary apartment overlooking the Thames, our team brings the precision and discretion these homes require. We're familiar with the conservation requirements in Chelsea and work closely with property managers and homeowners alike.

What Chelsea clients say
"I'm an interior designer and use The Painters London on most of my London projects. Reliable, brand-loyal to Little Greene and Farrow & Ball, and the finish standard is consistently excellent."
"From the first email to the final walk-around, the whole experience felt considered. Quoting was transparent, the team was lovely, and our flat looks brand new."
"Repainted the exterior stucco on our terrace — a job our previous decorator had bodged. They stripped it back properly and re-finished it to a heritage-grade standard."
