The homes we decorate in Groby & Ratby
Housing in the LE6 villages ranges from older cottages and terraces in the village cores to large post-war estates and newer family homes on the edges. Cottages and older houses tend to have uneven walls and older joinery that need more preparation; estate homes are usually straightforward, and our quotes reflect the difference rather than charging everyone the same.
