Outdoor wall paint removal

To remove paint from outdoor wall. Area is approximately 70 by 70 inches.
Bathroom refresh – remove paint from tiles, reseal and repaint
£178
Beckenham, Greater London, BR3
19th Sep 2026
Bathroom refresh – remove paint from tiles, reseal and repaint Small bathroom in a property guardianship. I am looking for a practical, hygienic refresh rather than a full renovation. The existing bathroom tiles appear to be blue underneath and have previously been painted white. The paint is now peeling in several areas. Preferred work: * Carefully remove the existing paint from the bathroom tiles where possible, with the aim of restoring and keeping the original blue tiles * Please test a small area first before proceeding with the full tile area * Clean the tiles thoroughly once the paint has been removed * Remove and replace deteriorated/stained silicone around the bath/basin with white mould-resistant sanitary silicone * Prepare and repaint the peeling bathroom vanity/shelf * Repaint/touch up the bathroom walls in a light neutral colour to complement the blue tiles * Leave the bathroom clean and tidy afterwards I do not want the tiles repainted unless we discuss and agree this first. The damaged window sill and larger wall crack are being reported separately to the property management company. Please quote labour separately from materials, confirm how long you expect the work to take, and explain how you would remove the existing tile paint without damaging the tiles.
Paint stripping
£500
Tottenham Hale, Greater London, N17
1st Sep 2026
Need someone to finish stripping paint off a staircase handrail (Victorian terrace, N15) Hey! We started stripping the paint off our wood panelling and staircase handrail ourselves but got overwhelmed partway through. Now looking for someone to pick it up and finish the job properly. Photos attached show where we got to: some sections back to bare wood, other patches still with old paint layers and flaking bits. The upstairs bannister hasn't been stripped at all yet. Would be done in place (not removable, so no dipping) – heat gun, gel stripper, sanding, whatever finishes it off cleanly without chewing up the original timber. Given the age of the house please flag if you test for lead paint as part of the job. The quote here should be to get the panelling pictured fully stripped and the bannister rail itself, not the spindles. End goal is bare wood ready to stain/oil or varnish. Flexible on timing and on budget if the right team quotes

Internal Brick Paint Removal & Restoration
£2,000
Festubert Place, Greater London
24th Aug 2026
I’m looking for someone experienced in removing white paint from original internal brickwork. The apartment is in Bow Quarter, E3. One large double-height brick wall has been completely painted white and I want to expose the original brick again, similar to the before and after vision in the photos. The actual painted brick area is around 10 to 14 square metres. The wall is approximately 5.5 metres wide and 4.5 metres high, with large factory windows taking up much of the area. The apartment will be empty before I move in, so access will be easier. I’m open to soda blasting, controlled sandblasting or another suitable method, provided the original brick is not badly damaged. Looking for an all-in price including protection, paint removal and clean-up. Please send photos of similar work if you have done this before.

Hi, I hope you are well. I have a gate in N20 0HD that was installed two days ago. I started the process of painting it, but realised that I have not put enough wood preservative on the gate. What I'm looking for, is someone to come and strip the stain off of the gate so that I can put more preservative on and paint it with the stain. Many thanks, Oria

Paint Stripping Job on Victorian Staircase
£1,500
Leyton, Greater London, E10
1st Jul 2026
I have a victorian staircase that I need a paint stripping job completed on. The job was begun and abandoned by a previous contractor unfortunately. I'm not needing a full restoration and finish, I'm ideally just hoping to just have as much paint removed as possible to return the staircase to a functional state. I'm unsure of a reasonable price so please give me a quote. Thank you.
Such a great team, it was a thankless task and they did a really fantastic job of it and were really lovely people to have around on top of that
