Exeter Sausage and grill & 44 Below:
This is one of the many restaurants we have worked on. At the time of writing, this is Exeters' newest restaurant and bar, Exeter Sausage and Grill & 44 Below!.
As an added challenge, we had to get external lighting and heating bought in as the contract was carried out in the cold early months of 2010, and the building had been un-occupied for 2 years.
As you can see from our pictures, the premises has a lot of character which we were able to show off to its full potential using Dulux paint choices (Mellow Mocha and Soft Stone amongst others) and expensive wallpapers, one of which is handmade grasscloth wallpaper (pictured).

Reiss, Princesshay, Exeter:
This was a redecoration to "freshen" the walls where finger marks had made them dirty, especially in the changing rooms. As the store is open 7 days a week we had to carry out the works outside of normal working hours, being extra careful to protect all clothes and keep pre-finished surfaces such as the floor and sales counter clean. The walls and ceiling are finished in a colour called Dulux Chalky Downs No 6. As you can see, the results are impressive. |

Connaught House, Exeter Business Park, Exeter.
This prestigious contract was carried out by us for a London based company called DPW on behalf of Connaught PLC. This large contract had to be completed within 5 weeks, and our brief was to seal the dry lined walls with a mist coat, apply 2 full coats of Gliddens white emulsion to all walls and ceilings, decorate all existing doors in 2 coats of light grey eggshell and finish all other woodwork in 2 coats of white satinwood. After all the tradesmen had finished DPW installed lots of good looking furniture and art work. As you can imagine the staff at Connaught were thrilled to bits with the results and we added DPW to our ever growing list of satisfied clients. |

This was an external redecocoration which can be seen locally next to the Ship Inn Pub in the heart of Exeter, It had to be extensively prepared, rotting wood cut out and repaired and really stood out when work was complete, looking smart in classic white and black gloss. |
