Excellent job from Nik, putting the wallpaper on our feature wall in the kitchen. Very fiddly bit behind the radiator (hence getting a professional in) and he’s made an absolutely cracking job of it. Great quality of work and an all-round nice guy. Thanks Nik!Posted on Ann Foxley-JohnsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a fantastic experience! We recently had our new extension, hallway, and kitchen dining room painted, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Nik was incredibly friendly, making the whole process enjoyable from start to finish. He was also remarkably meticulous, paying close attention to every detail and ensuring a flawless finish. Beyond his impressive skills, he maintained a high level of professionalism throughout the project. We highly recommend him!Posted on Joanne DoddTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I can't thank you enough for the amazing transformation to our hallway, stairs and landing.

We were so impressed with Nik's work on our bedrooms! He was professional, efficient, and really took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. We appreciated his helpful advice, which ensured everything perfectly fitted our needs. The quality of his work is fantastic, and we wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend him. In fact, we're so pleased that Nik is coming back to decorate the rest of our house in a few weeks!Posted on Marc DewickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This week was second time we've used The Home Decorating Service (Nik) in last 18 month or so. Both times highly satisfied and pleased with the finished job. As others have already said, nothing too much trouble, extremely tidy during and after work. The knowledge and advice on both occasions have been much appreciated and all at a reasonable price. Will definitely be calling on Nik again in the future. Seriously cannot recommend enough.
As an independent painter and decorator, I take pride in offering a personal, hands-on service to every client.
When you hire me, you’re dealing directly with the person who will be doing the work—ensuring attention to detail, clear communication, and genuine care for your home.
For larger projects or when extra hands are needed, I collaborate with a close network of experienced decorators I trust and have worked alongside for years.
This means you get the reliability and consistency of a one-to-one service, with the added support of a skilled team when needed—without ever compromising on quality.
At The Home Decorating Service, no two clients are the same, that’s why I provide a completely bespoke service tailored to you and your home.
If you’d like to discuss your next project, I’d love to hear from you. Get in touch today to arrange a chat and see how I can help bring your ideas to life.
Our public liability insurance covers up to £2,000,000, so in the unlikely case of any accidents you will be covered. You also do not pay the final balance until the end and you are satisfied with the work.
We accept payment via cash or bank transfer, on the day of completion.
Generally no, however this depends on the job at hand.
Our average waiting time is 3–4 months. Occasionally, a small slot becomes available sooner, so feel free to ask if you’d like to be considered for any earlier opportunities.
Every decorating job is different and timescales vary depending on the amount of preparation required and the specific work you’d like done. Your personal decorating quotation will outline an estimated timescale tailored to your project.
You don’t need to be present while I work—many customers are happy to leave a key. If you prefer, I can post your key back at the end of the day if you’ll be in the next morning, or return it at the end of the job.
Ideally, most furniture should be removed from the room before work begins. If spraying is involved, everything must be cleared out to prevent any risk of overspray. Please also remove any valuable or personal items.
Yes, all materials and paint are supplied and included in your quote. I use trusted, professional trade brands to ensure the best finish and durability.

Yes, I have £2,000,000 public liability insurance, covering both residential and commercial work.
I typically work in Rotherham, Sheffield, Doncaster, Worksop & Chesterfield , but can occasionally travel further for the right project.
Yes, wallpaper stripping is available. Please note, this can sometimes cause minor damage to walls, which I’ll repair as needed. However, when removing wallpaper, the walls may be quite bad anyway, wallpaper hides a multitude of sins, they may actually need skimming instead, this would incur additional costs from either myself, or a plasterer. I will notify you should this occur.
Ideally, all furniture should be out of the room before work starts ready for me to get straight in to the decorating. Failure to remove furniture will add time to the job which can be charged for. For spraying jobs, everything must be removed to avoid overspray. If you need assistance with light items, let me know in advance
I offer limited exterior services such as garage and uPVC door spraying. Please ask if you have a specific request.
Just get in touch by phone, email, or through my website to arrange a free quote. I’ll confirm availability and book you in.
About the project
A customer contacted me from Rotherham about their 22-year-old kitchen units that were starting to look dated.
They wanted a modern refresh without the expense of a full replacement. After visiting to provide a quotation, I supplied a colour chart for them to choose from.
Once they decided on Benjamin Moore – Smokey Taupe, I carefully prepped, sealed, and primed the units before spraying them in a durable satin finish. The result was a sleek, modern kitchen transformation at just a fraction of the cost of a new installation.
About the project
A customer in Worksop contacted me before their new extension build had even started, wanting the finishing touches done properly once it was complete.
The builder created a beautiful, airy space, and it was my job to give it the perfect finish. After mist coating the fresh plaster, I sanded down all of the walls and ceiling to remove any imperfections and filled wherever needed for a flawless surface.
Then I finished the room with hard-wearing brilliant white matt on the ceilings and walls, the woodwork was finished in brilliant white durable satin.
The result was a bright, crisp, and relaxing room the customers were absolutely over the moon with.
About the project
For this project in Sheffield, the customers wanted a full lounge transformation.
I carefully removed the existing wallpaper, fully prepped and decorated the room, and then finished it off with this stunning feature wall.
The bold, nature-inspired design adds character and warmth, creating a stylish and welcoming space the customer can really enjoy.
