When it comes to residential painting and decorating — inside and out — Original Dublin Painter brings over 20 years of hands-on experience to homes right across Dublin. Led by Alex, our team has spent two decades helping people improve their houses, apartments and family homes, from a single freshly-painted room to a full top-to-bottom transformation. Whatever your project, our promise stays the same: your vision, brilliantly brought to life.
We’re rated 4.9 stars from 137 Google reviews, and the themes people mention again and again — tidy, punctual, professional and honest with their advice — are exactly what you’d want from the decorators working inside your home.
What our residential decorating covers
As full-service house painters and decorators, we handle far more than just rolling paint on a wall. For our residential customers we regularly carry out:
- Minor repairs before decorating — sorting small leaks, cracked window panes, rotten timber and damaged sills so the finish lasts.
- Light general trades — small amounts of carpentry, tiling, plastering and plumbing to get a surface ready.
- Crack and hole correction — filling and making good every crack and hole so walls and ceilings are flawless before a single coat goes on.
- Wallpaper hanging — stripping old paper, preparing the surface, then hanging wallpaper of almost any design or quality.
- Painting any surface — interior painting and exterior painting to a first-class standard, or a straightforward tidy-up where that’s all a room needs.
Because we tackle the small repairs and prep alongside the decorating, you deal with one trusted team instead of chasing several tradespeople — and the finished result holds up far better for it.
How we work: quality, reliability, friendliness, tidiness
Every apartment and house decorating job we take on is guided by four simple policies we never bend on:
- Quality — a proper, pleasing finish, every time.
- Reliability — turning up when we say we will.
- Friendliness — a courteous, easy team to have in your home.
- Tidiness — floors and furniture covered up, and the place left clean.
Keep to those four points and the work only ever goes one way — well. Turning up on time, quietly getting on with it, protecting your floors and furniture, and leaving behind a finish you’re genuinely pleased with is what turns a decorating job into a pleasant experience rather than a disruption.
There’s one extra step that sets us apart from most decorators. As well as a supervisor overseeing the job itself, we run quality-control checks across our live jobs to make sure standards stay high. On the rare occasion something isn’t up to scratch, it gets put right swiftly and without any fuss — that’s the point of being fully guaranteed.
Why choose Original Dublin Painter
Speedy service
We reply to enquiries fast — usually within a couple of hours — and can often arrange a consultation as soon as the next day. In many cases we can have your painters and decorators booked in for the same week.
An easy, hassle-free process
Leave everything to us. All you need to do is book your consultation — we then inspect the property, advise on colours and materials, and get on with the painting. You’re the priority throughout.
Top-quality materials and a real guarantee
We’ve been decorating Dublin homes for years and use only superior paints and materials for the job in hand. Every job is backed by a six-month workmanship guarantee, on top of our overall promise that the work is fully guaranteed.
An experienced team
Alex brings 20+ years of decorating experience, and our painters know the right tools and products for each surface and finish. That professionalism — and our attention to colour advice — is what our customers tell us makes us stand out.
Job sizes we take on
We’re happy to take on home decorating projects as small as a single room and as large as a whole house, whatever its size. We also handle commercial painting and decorating for offices, shops and rental properties.
In fairness, there are some jobs that are simply too small for us to price sensibly — coming out to paint a single door on its own would end up cost-prohibitive for you rather than good value. For anything from a full room upwards, though, being an established company means we can come in sooner and complete the work in less time.
Areas we serve
As a service-area business we cover all of County Dublin — including Howth and the surrounding coastal villages — as well as Kildare, Meath, and parts of Wicklow and County Louth. Wherever you are in the greater Dublin area, we can be on site to look at your home and give you a clear, honest price.
