Web design for decorators
Painter and decorator website design with a proper finish
Choosing a decorator is a strangely personal thing. You’re letting someone into your home for days at a time, often while you’re living there, and trusting them with the room you’ll look at every evening. So people want to know two things: is the work good, and are they nice to have around?
A good decorator’s website answers both.
Show the work, close up
Wide shots of a finished room look lovely, but they hide the detail. The photos that win jobs are the close-ups: a crisp cut-in line where the wall meets the ceiling, a perfectly hung wallpaper seam, a glossy panelled door with no runs or brush marks. That’s what tells a homeowner you’re careful.
Before and after pairs are excellent too, especially for exteriors and tired woodwork. And if you’re taking photos on your phone, wait until the dust sheets are gone and the light is good. It makes more difference than you’d think. If you’d like professional pictures, our photo and film services can help.
Separate the different kinds of work
“Painting and decorating” covers a lot. Splitting it into a few clear services helps people find what they need:
- Interior painting and decorating, from single rooms to whole houses.
- Wallpaper hanging, especially specialist and patterned papers that need a steady hand.
- Exterior painting, including render, woodwork and windows.
- Spraying, such as kitchen cabinet spraying or uPVC windows and doors, if you offer it.
- Commercial work for shops, offices and holiday lets.
Spraying in particular is worth highlighting if you do it. It’s a growing area and people search for it specifically.
The bit about being nice to have around
This is where an about page earns its keep. A photo of you, a few honest lines about how you work, and some reviews that mention tidiness and punctuality do a lot of quiet persuading. If you always lay dust sheets, clean up each evening and keep the radio at a sensible volume, say so. People care.

Questions decorators often ask us
What photos should a painter and decorator use?
Close-ups of clean cut-in lines, wallpaper seams and woodwork show the quality of your finish. Wide shots show the finished room. Before and after pairs work particularly well for exteriors and old woodwork.
Should I list spraying as a separate service?
Yes, if you offer it. Kitchen cabinet spraying and uPVC spraying are searched for specifically, so a dedicated page with photos helps people find you.
Can customers send me photos of the rooms they want decorating?
Yes. Our Premium Website includes custom forms, so customers can attach photos and room details when they ask for a quote.
Do I need lots of pages?
Not necessarily. A homepage, an about page, a contact page and a page for each main service is a good start, and it fits within the 15 pages of our Classic Website.
