Think your walls are ready for painting? Get an LED light on them and you might change your mind! 🔦😂

It’s amazing what you can miss in natural daylight. You think you’ve caught everything, then shine a light across the wall and suddenly there’s a load more little bits staring back at you.

Scratches, dents, bits of filler that need another going over… it doesn’t miss much!

Some might think it’s going a bit over the top, but I’d rather pick these things up now than see them showing through the paint afterwards.

It’s the little details that make the difference 👌

If you’re thinking of having some decorating done and want it done properly, give us a message. We’re always happy to have a chat, come and have a look at the work and get you a quote. 📩

Some jobs you open the paint tin. Others you open another bag of filler. 😂

This one’s definitely been the second option!

We’ve had our work cut out on this house. The walls and ceilings have needed a serious amount of scraping back, sanding and filling to get them where we want them.

And just when you think you’ve finished filling, you get the light on it and spot another bit that’s annoying you!

It’s not the prettiest stage of the job, and it probably looks like we’ve made the place worse before making it better.

But there’s no point putting expensive paint over walls and ceilings that aren’t right. You’ll only end up with nicely painted imperfections.

We’re getting there though. Plenty of graft gone into this one already, and I’m looking forward to seeing these rooms come together.

If you’ve got a house that’s looking a bit tired and needs more than a quick lick of paint, give us a shout.

It’s with a heavy heart that we announce the sad passing of Sheila. 🖤

After six years of loyal service, she finally gave up on us. She’d been making some strange noises for a while, but we thought she had a few more years left in her. 😂

Sheila worked hard, never complained (much), and sucked up more dust than we care to think about.

But life goes on, and we’re pleased to introduce the newest member of the Benchmark team…

Meet Diane. 💛🖤

She’s younger, a bit flashier, and apparently comes with all the latest technology. Whether she’s got Sheila’s work ethic remains to be seen.

She’s got some big shoes to fill. Well, wheels anyway.

Here’s hoping for another six years of loyal service. 🤞

Welcome to the team, Diane. Don’t let us down.

P.S. We haven’t told Diane how hard we work yet. 🤫😂

Another job started today, this time over at Oaklands! 🎨

We’ve been busy getting everything covered up and protected, ready to get stuck into the decorating.

Quite a bit to do on this one, but looking forward to seeing it all come together.

I’ll keep you updated as we go and show you the finished result when we’re done.

Another lovely transformation completed by Benchmark Decorators.

Ceilings and walls finished in Swiss Coffee, with the coving picked out in white to give everything a clean, crisp finish.

A warm, timeless colour that really freshens up the space.

Our customer was over the moon with the result, which is always what we aim for.

It’s your home, not just another job.

When we’re decorating an occupied property, protecting what’s already there is just as important as the painting itself.

That means taking the time to cover furniture, protect flooring, mask kitchen units and worktops, and keep dust to a minimum while we’re preparing the walls.

We’re currently working on a full-house redecoration, and this is how we approach the job before the painting gets underway.

It’s the little things that make a difference to the customer.

Light Fern walls paired with bold black doors and crisp white woodwork.

Another hall, stairs and landing completed at Dragon’s Way.

Love how these colours work together. A modern, fresh finish that really makes the black doors stand out.

Would you go for black doors in your home?

Day 2 at Dragon Way.

Plenty of prep first, then finally getting some colour on.

Starting to see the transformation now — still plenty to do, but this three-storey hall, stairs & landing is going to look completely different when we’re finished.

🔵 NEW ONE STARTED TODAY 👀

Hall, stairs & landing transformation underway.

This is the before. We got stuck straight into the prep today — plenty of filling and sanding, frames all rubbed down and undercoated ready for the next stage.

Didn’t get much chance to film today because we were too busy actually getting the work done 😂

This one’s going to look completely different when we’re finished. I’ll keep you updated as it comes together 👌

❤️ OUR FIRST BENCHMARK HELPING HAND ❤️

We had some really touching nominations come through, and choosing someone genuinely wasn’t easy.

But we’ve chosen Shannon Roberts.

Shannon was nominated by her dad, Dai, who told us a little about what she’s been going through with her health, while still pushing herself forward and continuing with university.

After speaking with Shannon today, we’re going to help transform her plain front room into a proper living space that feels like her own ❤️

We’ll be supplying all the labour and materials completely free of charge.

This is exactly why I wanted to start Helping Hand.

Benchmark is growing and local people continue to support us, so I want us to use that success to give something back when we can.

We’ll bring you along for the transformation from start to finish.

For now, congratulations Shannon — we can’t wait to get started! ❤️

And a massive thank you to everyone who nominated somebody. There were some amazing people put forward, and this definitely won’t be the last Helping Hand.
