At Zen Painting & Decorating, we specialise in interior painting services that breathe new life into your space. Whether it’s a fresh colour for your living room, a complete home refresh, or just touching up tired woodwork – we’re here to make the process simple, smooth, and stress-free.
We work across Retford, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, South Yorkshire and surrounding areas, offering high-quality decorating backed by experience and a 10-year paint guarantee.

What We Paint
Our team is skilled in all aspects of interior painting, including:
- Walls and ceilings
- Doors and door frames
- Skirting boards and architraves
- Window sills and trims
- Staircases and banisters
- Built-in units and interior woodwork
We use only trusted paint brands and proven techniques to ensure a smooth, even finish that lasts.
How It Works
We make decorating easy – from first contact to final coat.
1. Free Consultation
We’ll arrange a visit or video call to discuss your ideas, inspect the space, and offer advice on colour choices, finishes and paint types.
2. Preparation
We take time to prepare your surfaces properly. This includes sanding, filling, priming, and masking – all to ensure a long-lasting, professional finish.
3. Painting
Our decorators work cleanly and efficiently, using high-quality brushes, rollers or spray (where suitable) to deliver crisp edges and even coverage.
4. Tidy & Final Checks
We leave your home clean, with all rubbish removed and furniture put back in place. Every detail is checked before we leave.

1. How much does interior painting cost?
Prices vary depending on room size and detail, but we provide free, no-obligation quotes for all projects.
2. Do I need to move furniture before you arrive?
We’re happy to move light furniture and cover everything – though we ask clients to remove smaller valuables and personal items beforehand.
3. How long does interior painting take?
A typical room takes 1–2 days to complete, including preparation. We’ll give you a clear timeline before starting.
4. What paint brands do you use?
We use trusted brands like Dulux, Crown, Farrow & Ball, and Little Greene – but are happy to work with your preferred choice.
5. Do you offer help choosing colours?
Yes! We can guide you on popular trends, timeless colours, and finishes to suit your space and light.
6. Can you paint over wallpaper?
We recommend removing wallpaper for the best finish, but in some cases we can seal and paint over it if agreed.
7. Do you work with rental properties or landlords?
Absolutely – we regularly decorate tenanted properties and work with landlords across the region.
8. What areas do you cover?
We’re based in Retford and work across Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, and South Yorkshire.
9. Is your work guaranteed?
Yes – all interior paint finishes come with a 10-year guarantee for peace of mind.
10. Are you insured?
Yes, we carry full public liability insurance and can provide documentation on request.
