A pleasant and responsive builder
After having the firm come and quote for the works, a schedule waa agreed and completed. Although there was an initial issue with part of the finish, after a brief discussion with Shirley Builders, they returned and made good the situation. Overall, my interaction with them was pleasant, relaxed and generally without issue.Verified reviewerJob location: BR110 Painter / Decorator

Home decoration
We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Umar. From the very beginning he treated our home as if it were his own. His dedication, work ethic and pride in his craft are genuinely rare. He worked tirelessly and with great care, especially on our bathroom flooring, taking his time to apply the sealant properly and ensure a flawless finish. He never rushed a single detail. What stood out most was his patience and calm approach, even when things required extra time and precision. Umar went far beyond what we expected. He custom-made a skirting board to make sure everything looked perfect ratherVerified reviewerJob location: BR510 Painting / Decorating

Hi there!
We’re Shirley Builders & Decorators, and while we love the sight of a perfectly crisp line and a smoothly finished wall, our business is about more than just paint and wallpaper—it’s about you and your space
It all started when our founder, Umer Hussain, was renovating their home.
He realized that the biggest difference wasn't the colour choice, but the care taken with every brushstroke.
The big companies rushed, missed the details, and treated the job like a quick transaction.
We decided to do things differently.
We keep our team small so that when we walk into your home in London, we treat it like our own.
We don't just paint over things; we meticulously prep, repair, and perfect the surface underneath, ensuring a finish that doesn't just look good today, but lasts for years.
We're the team that spends the extra time taping the intricate trim or finding that perfect, subtle shade of Farrow and Ball you’ve been dreaming of.
For us, the best moment is the handover—when you step back and see the room you imagined finally come to life. It’s not just a freshly painted wall; it’s a new background for your memories.
Ready to start the next chapter of your home’s story?
