At Karl’s Handyman Croydon, we believe that every brushstroke counts. Whether you’re refreshing a tired hallway or transforming an entire open-plan living area, our professional decorators take the time to understand your vision and bring it to life. From choosing the right paint finish—be it matt, eggshell, or gloss—to selecting the perfect shade, we guide you through every decision to ensure your space reflects your personality and lifestyle.

Preparation is the cornerstone of a flawless finish. Our team tackles all the groundwork, from filling cracks and repairing plaster to sanding doors and skirting boards.

With meticulous attention to detail, we protect your flooring and furniture with dust sheets and masking tape, keeping your home clean throughout the project.

We pride ourselves on using only the finest, eco-conscious materials. Our low-VOC paints reduce odours and improve indoor air quality, making them ideal for nurseries, offices, and any room where health and comfort matter most. By partnering with reputable UK suppliers, we offer a wide palette of durable, fade-resistant colours that withstand everyday wear and tear—perfect for busy families and high-traffic commercial spaces alike.

Wallpapering is another specialist skill we offer. From classic patterns to modern geometric designs, our decorators handle both hanging and removal with ease. We carefully match repeats, smooth out imperfections, and ensure crisp, straight lines for a seamless look. If you’re looking for a bold feature wall or a subtle accent, our bespoke wallpapering service adds texture, depth, and style to any room.

Our local knowledge of Croydon’s homes and period properties means we understand the challenges of older walls, skirting profiles, and mouldings.
