NU Projects is a design and build company in Fulham SW6, founded in 2010. We handle luxury painting, decorating and specialist finishes in Earl’s Court SW5. Decoration is priced room by room, after a survey. Call 020 7731 6841, and a budget estimate typically follows within seven days.
Earl’s Court is tall stucco terraces beside red brick mansion blocks. Many houses were split into flats. A front is often shared by several owners.
In Philbeach, an Article 4 direction applies. Planning permission is needed even to paint a house front. We apply before the scaffold goes up.
Philbeach and Earl’s Court Village are among the conservation areas here. Elsewhere, we still check each address before agreeing a colour.
Red brick mansion blocks are a different job. Their brick is rarely painted, so the work is inside. Halls, stairs and the flats themselves.
Our nearest finished interiors are in Chelsea SW3 and Fulham SW6. One team plans, protects, prices and finishes the work.
