Local decorators who know Glenfield homes
Glenfield (LE3) is one of Leicester's leafy western suburbs, with everything from 1930s bay-fronted semis to modern builds. We decorate homes throughout the area and out towards Kirby Muxloe and Leicester Forest East, with a fair fixed price and a finish that stands the test of time.
The homes we decorate in Glenfield
Glenfield is dominated by 1930s and post-war semis with generous, well-proportioned rooms, alongside newer developments towards Kirby Muxloe. Many of these homes still have original doors, deep skirting and picture rails that look superb once properly prepared and finished. That character is worth protecting with the right preparation and quality trade paint rather than a rushed, thin coat.
