    Fantastic and timely job

    Posted 24 July

    Chris managed to squeeze us in at very short notice and did a fantastic job redecorating our new flat. He was really thorough, took great pride in his work, and finished in the original timeframe and on budget, with some additional ceiling repairs that only became obvious halfway through and sourcing of paints which we didn't have time for ourselves done at a very reasonable cost. He left the property clean and tidy as well.

    Amazing work

    Posted 05 June

    I am absolutely delighted with my hallway. Chris did an excellent job with the painting, and everything looks so beautifully neat. He was incredibly tidy and left the place absolutely spotless when he finished. It has completely transformed the space—highly recommend him.

Hi, I'm Chris, the owner of Alcove Decorating.


I specialise in interior and exterior painting and decorating across Brighton and the surrounding areas, helping homeowners, landlords and businesses transform their properties into spaces they can be proud of.


At Alcove Decorating, I believe great decorating is about more than just applying paint.


It's about attention to detail, taking pride in the finished result, and delivering a service that customers can trust from start to finish.


Every project is approached with the same care, professionalism and commitment to quality, no matter the size of the job.


I pride myself on being reliable, honest and approachable, with clear communication from quotation through to completion.


Whether it's a single room, a full property redecoration, woodwork restoration or an exterior refresh, I treat every project as if it were my own home.
