During our career as painters and decorators in London, we had the opportunity to work on many projects. They were all challenging to some degree, but few of them match the restoration work at the famous Belgravia mansion. What was involved in our work as painters of the Belgravia mansion in Chesham Place?
Belgravia mansion is without a doubt one of the most stunning objects we’ve had the pleasure to work on. The grandeur of this unique building alone dictates a personalised, bespoke approach. Seven storeys high, Belgravia mansion contains 5 bedrooms, several lounge areas, separate seating areas on every floor and bathrooms which can rival those of the most luxury hotels. It is located in one of the most exclusive locations in London – Belgravia near Sloane Square, and this alone indicates that all of the work had to be performed to an extraordinarily high standard.
The project of restoring the Belgravia mansion to its former glory (and then some) involved much more than just what is usually required of painters and decorators. In fact, as painters and decorators for Belgravia, we were responsible for all stages of the restoration work.
The restoration works on the Belgravia mansion started with a thorough planning stage, where we pre-planned the whole project of painting and decorating Belgravia, both internal and external walls. The planning and design were performed by a team of experienced, professional painters and decorators. Some of the works had to be performed around the clock, in a 24-hour system, by two separate teams working day and night. In addition to standard painting and decorating works, our mission was also to also restore the entire staircase.
As painters and decorators of Belgravia mansion, we knew that everything had to be performed with attention to the slightest detail and the highest standard. The restoration of the stone staircase was one of the most ambitious tasks, which we’ve approached diligently and with a lot of pre-planning. Preserving its traditional elegance was of utmost importance. To perform comprehensive stair restoration in Belgravia mansion, we first took off all the old paint. After that, the stairs were thoroughly filled. Finally, we finished the restoration with the precise painting of the entire staircase. Simultaneously with the staircase renovation, our painters and decorators worked on the walls, ceilings, shutters and window frames. All of the walls and ceilings were smoothed to an extraordinarily high finish. This restoration work was completed with manual restoration of wooden shutters and window frames, which were previously showing signs of age and use. All this was finished with precise, comprehensive plastering of Belgravia mansion.
The entire process of painting and decorating Belgravia mansion was accomplished over the span of pre-estimated 10 months. In order to blow a breath of fresh air and style into this iconic building, our painters and decorators from London used products and materials of the highest quality only.
The entirety of Belgravia mansion was painted with the use of top-grade Farrow & Ball paint. The crews assigned to this project knew that they needed to pay attention to the smallest detail, and, while keeping the deadline in mind, make sure not to rush the work. Proper planning was key to succeeding and meeting both the deadline and satisfying end effect.

While these days, limewash is primarily used for outdoor painting, it has a long tradition of being
used for finishing both the outside and inside walls of historic buildings. Considering such diverse uses of limewash paint, maybe it’s high time you’ve learned a thing or two about it?
While many home-grown renovators look at painting as simple and easy enough to skip
hiring a contractor and do on their own, there’s actually a lot to consider when preparing for
a painting project.
At Ignas we are very happy that the weather is slowly but steadily improving! Why is it so important
to us? Apart from the fact that we love the sun, these are also perfect conditions for painting and
decorating the outside of buildings!
