NU Projects is a design and build company in Fulham SW6, founded in 2010. We handle luxury painting, decorating and specialist finishes in Marylebone W1, under one contract. Decoration is priced room by room, after a survey. Call 020 7731 6841, and a budget estimate typically follows within seven days.

Marylebone is Georgian terraces, most now apartments above shops. Mews houses sit behind the main streets. Rooms are tall, and the detail is fine.

Our Grade II listed apartment here has ornate plasterwork and a marble chimneypiece. A bedroom is painted dark, around a pale four poster. Strong colour suits these rooms when the detail stays crisp.

Old ceilings carry many layers of distemper and paint. Heavy coats blur the ornament. Where it is clogged, we clean it gently before any new coat.

Historic England is clear on one point. Painting unpainted surfaces of a listed building is likely to need consent. Like for like redecoration usually does not. We check which applies, room by room.

Outside, Westminster’s stucco guide asks for the terrace’s established colour. Most of Marylebone is conservation area, so fronts are judged in context.

Can dark paint work in a listed Marylebone bedroom?

Yes. Our Marylebone apartment has one, around a pale four poster.

Painting a surface never painted before is another matter.

How do you repaint ornate plaster ceilings in Marylebone?

Clogged ornament is cleaned gently first.

Then thin coats keep the detail sharp.

Does painting a Marylebone front need permission?

It can. Unpainted stucco should stay unpainted.

Painted fronts follow the terrace’s established colour.

Is a Marylebone mews house decorated differently?

Rooms are lower, so lighter colour and a little sheen help.

Doors and stairs take a harder wearing finish.
