Period homes in Barnes, Richmond, Chelsea and Notting Hill reward a restrained design, removable fixings and one coherent warm-white palette.

Three useful design directions

Stucco frontage

Prioritise one cornice or parapet line, the portico and restrained detail around railings or topiary.

Brick terrace or villa

Let the roofline, bays and doorway create the composition. Avoid drilling or adhesives; the fixing method must suit the actual surface and existing features.

Detached period house

Balance the house with one selected tree or a small amount of path planting rather than adding light everywhere.

Scope-led pricing

Seasonal exterior installations start at £1,500. Enhanced exteriors are £2,500–£4,000 and statement exteriors are £4,000–£5,000+. These are scope guides, not local property tariffs. A fixed quote follows review of the address, photographs, access and requested coverage.

Start with the quote form and we will confirm coverage and current availability.
