Whether it’s one piece or a full suite, let Chests and Drawers paint it for you.
We can collect, fully sand, prepare, seal, prime and paint in a colour of your choice....then deliver it back to you. We can also supply and change the handles.
​
We primarily use Farrow and Ball and Little Greene Company paints, however, we will use whatever you wish.
​
This service has also been fantastic for that sentimental piece of furniture you want to keep, but doesn't quite fit in your home in its current state...!

Recent transformations...
This dining suite had been in the family for decades!
With a room refurbishment, it was time for an uplift. They were collected, sanded, sealed, primed and sprayed F&B “off black”. The inside of the Hifi unit was sprayed little Greene co “stock”
I was asked to spray some new driveway gates! After preparing and dark priming… the correct shade for the top coat…. They were finally given the client choice of F&B “Bancha”
The evolution of a dresser!
​
This commission paint came about after with refurbished our clients kitchen. The dresser had been inherited with the house and now wasn’t in fitting with the kitchen.
It was time to collect….. and like all our commission refurbishments, it’s not just slap paint on, or even a light sand to prepare. All the pieces are stripped and labelled, masked, sanded, sealed to stop dye from the wood reappearing. It’s then primed it’s correct tone to create depth of colour in the top coat and of course then sprayed its chosen colour. Handle holes can be filled, new handles drilled and added and tops either painted or oiled your choice of colour.
​
Finally it’s delivered back and put in position. My aim is for something to look as best it can be and for years to come….
​
This one went two tone….F&B “Ammonite” internally and F&B “Hague blue” externally, with new satin nickel handles.
This bureau was causing a rift between my clients….
One liked it, the other didn’t! The compromise…..get Chests and Drawers to refurbish it! A great decision….
Collected, stripped, sanded, sealed, primed their relevant colours and the chosen exterior colour of F&B “Railings”. Being existing clients, they left the contrast colour to me…. I chose one of my favourites, F&B “Ammonite”
​
The arguments have ceased!
This old farmhouse table had been stored for a good while. It also had the history of a party where believe or not red crepe paper was used, yes it stained the table!!
It was collected, totally sanded, the legs and frame sealed, primed and painted in Neptune “charcoal” and the top danish oiled.
These 4 white chairs didn’t fit in with the clients new decor.....they were collected, fully sanded, sealed,
primed in their relevant colour primer and sprayed our clients choice of Farrow & Ball “Railings”.
The sentimental things are my favourites to work on....
I hadn’t had one in a while and then a grandmother came in wanting an old chest painted for her granddaughters 21st..... although fully booked I couldn’t say no!
We collected it and it was carefully sanded, sealed, primed and painted. After asking our thoughts on colour, it was agreed little Greene co “French grey” for the carcass, with Farrow & Ball “Moles Breath” for the handles...
It was delivered yesterday to a very surprised birthday girl! Happy 21st!
