Painting & decorating

Discover the decorating trends that are popular right now and make it easy to refresh your home in style. Acoustic wall panels are a practical and stylish way to reduce noise while adding a modern touch to living spaces or home offices. For quick and easy wall updates, peel and stick wallpaper is perfect, available in a range of patterns from bold 3D wallpaper to subtle textured wallpaper. Finish rooms with decorative wallpaper borders to create elegant accents around ceilings, doors or chair rails.

For furniture and cabinetry, cupboard paint is a popular choice, offering a simple way to give kitchens and wardrobes a fresh new look. Walls can also be revitalised with a wide selection of paints, from durable interior wall paint to moisture-resistant bathroom wall paint, or try stylish limewash wall paint for a soft, textured finish. Trendy wall coverings are also in demand, from bathroom wallpaper and kids wallpaper to statement brick wallpaper, wood effect wallpaper, cloud wallpaper, or playful pink wallpaper.

For a reliable, long-lasting finish, Dulux Easycare paint is a favourite, offering washability and durability for high-traffic areas. Whether you’re updating a single feature wall or redecorating an entire room, these trending paints and wallpapers make it easy to create a contemporary, personalised look that’s perfect for your home.

Explore a world of colours and styles to personalise your home and create rooms that reflect your taste. From bold feature walls to subtle neutrals, there’s a perfect shade for every space. Popular options include green paint and green wall paint for a refreshing, natural look, alongside timeless classics like white wall paint, beige paint, cream wallpaper, and grey wall paint. For a splash of colour, pink wall paint, blue wall paint, purple wallpaper, or red wallpaper can make a statement, while gold wallpaper and metallic accents add a touch of luxury.

Textured finishes are also trending, with anaglypta wallpaper, black wall panels, and natural wallpaper adding depth and character to your walls. For a sleek, modern look, black wallpaper or black paint works beautifully, complemented by gloss paint, black spray paint, or gold spray paint for finishing touches. Jungle-inspired patterns like jungle wallpaper bring fun and energy to bedrooms or feature walls, while white wallpaper and grey sealants provide versatile, neutral options for a polished finish.

Whether you prefer subtle elegance, bright colours, or statement features, these paints and wallpapers offer endless possibilities to transform your walls and interiors with style and personality.

When it comes to decorating, choosing products from trusted brands ensures quality, durability, and a professional finish every time. For paint, favourites include Dulux wall paint, Dulux Trade wall paint, Johnstone's wall paint, Crown paint, and specialist options like Rust Oleum kitchen cupboard paint or Hammerite metal paint for furniture and metalwork. Primers and fillers from brands such as Zinsser primer, Polycell filler, and Toupret fillers help create smooth, long-lasting surfaces ready for painting.

Wallpaper and wall coverings are also represented by top names, including I Love Wallpaper, William Morris wallpaper, Laura Ashley wallpaper, Direct Wallpapers, and Next wallpaper, all offering a wide variety of patterns, textures, and colours.

Getting your home ready for decorating and adding the finishing touches is just as important as choosing the right paint or wallpaper. Essential products include wood filler and wood glue for repairing and reinforcing furniture, doors, or skirting boards, while caulk, silicone sealant, clear sealant, and expanding foam are ideal for sealing gaps, cracks, and joints around windows, doors, and plumbing. Tools such as a decorating knife, masking tape, and mounting tape make preparation easier and help achieve clean, professional lines.

For finishing touches and protection, finishes like polyurethane varnish add durability to wooden surfaces, while white spirit is perfect for cleaning brushes and removing paint spills. DIY essentials such as super glue, duct tape, and sealant remover are handy for quick repairs and adjustments, and a lint roller ensures surfaces are dust-free before painting or wallpapering.

With the right combination of preparation and finishing products, your decorating projects can look polished, professional, and long-lasting, whether you’re tackling a single room or a full home makeover.
