City and Guilds

Swan Décor was founded in 1994 by myself  Nigel Swan.

Since then I have built my business up to cover special wall finishes to include Polished Plaster effects, Impasto effects and Digital Wallpaper Murals now available in one piece with no joins. I can accommodate virtually any wall size from thousands of images including your own photos. I have trained and been accredited in all these finishes. I also hold an CSCS card to allow me to work on site .I also cover wall and floor tiling in all materials to include Ceramic, Porcelain, Mosaic and Natural Stone, Bathroom refurbishment and will take on a single room to a full house refurbishment. I have a team of trades that I work alongside all have been fully trained and hold the relevant qualifications. Any electrical or gas work carried out by them will be signed off with the relevant Part p and Gas Safe certification.I always treat your home with respect and use the latest in protective floor coverings, turn up on time and strive to complete all work to the time that has been estimated. I have a large list of repeat customers that I have worked with for over 20 years and worked in hundreds of houses throughout Hertfordshire and London areas.

Decorative effects

Nigel is an incredible painter and decorator. His level of detail to communication, his level of detail to his work and the level of deatil to the after care is, in our opinion levels ahead of others in this field.
We are incredibly happy and with our decoration, the room is another level and his ability to offer unique elements to give your property a personal touch is remarkable.

Nigel from Swan Decor is next level!

Nigel is one of a kind and a real specialist of his trade. Having just painted, decorated and tiled two properties for me (both listed and particularly challenging) I cannot fault his knowledge, attention to detail, work ethic, flexibility and commitment. In addition, he is a lovely person to have around; trustworthy, friendly, conscientious, tidy and honest. I would not hesitate to recommend him. 

Painting, decorating, tiling, specialist painting two Grade II listed properties 

Having used Nigel's services previously to redecorate an area on the staircase landing, I was more than happy to contact him again to assess an area in an alcove in the entrance hall that had suffered from water penetration.  As a result the lining paper had lifted and the surface of the plaster beneath had lost its key and was loose and crumbling.

Having removed the loose plaster, the wall surface was repaired/re-plastered and once it had dried it was re-papered and painted.  The result was a super job with the repaired area matching the original.

Re-plastering and redecorating

Nigel did a lovely job on a large room in our house.  Always courteous and pleasant and an excellent result

Lovely paint job

Nigel was absolutely first class, a true perfectionist.  He was great at communicating prior and was very flexible throughout - most importantly the end product is amazing.  We are so happy with how Nigel has transformed the 3 bedrooms upstairs and we will 100% be getting him back to do the other rooms next year.  I would strongly recommend Nigel to anyone looking for the best of the best when it comes to decorating.

Decorated 3 rooms and painted furniture

Nigel fully decorated our living room including specialised paint for feature wall.  All work was carried out to a very high standard.  Even though he is very busy Nigel managed to fit us in around other work which was much appreciated.  Will definitely be using SwanDecor for further work!
