Colin and Harry Fry, father-and-son painters and decorators, working in period and family homes in Beckenham, Bromley, Chislehurst and West Wickham. Colin started Splat in 2002. Two decorators, in your house, doing the work themselves.
Every chip comes from our own photos of finished jobs. So each chip shows the colour as it really looked in that house. Screens and daylight shift colours, so see the paint in your own light before you choose. Every colour we've used, and where
Splat Decorating works in homes, never offices: halls and whole houses, the outside too, and the odd garden building.
Fifteen years of weather on a cedar-shingled office by Park Langley Golf Club. Drag the line across the roof.
Moss and lichen wire-brushed off the shingles before anything else went near them.
Every board sanded with electric sanders, the grooves by hand, then washed down so no dust went under the paint.
The perished finial and the drip beads on both doors replaced, supplied and fitted by us.
We'd rather you knew roughly where you stand before the dust sheets come out, so here are our starting prices for a room and for a hallway, stairs and landing. Everything else we price once we've seen it.
The company that DOESN'T live up to its name.
Tell us about the house and we'll come and look.
Splat Decorating is a two-man painting and decorating company working across the London Borough of Bromley: Colin Fry, who started it in 2002, and his son Harry, who joined him full time in 2011.
Two vans, two decorators, and one standard of finish, whoever is holding the brush.

GoogleIncredible experience. Colin compelted the work whilst we were away and the home was so clean and professional. Colin really supported us to choose the colours and brought round samples and discussed colours based on his years of experience. He was very professional and knowledgeable and we would book with him again. Extremly trustworthy, tidy and lovely blokes.
What a lovely review, pleasure working for you for the first time and trusting us with your home & feeding the cat 😹
Five areas across the borough of Bromley, and the places around them. Pick a sign to see our jobs there, or see all areas.
Beckenham, Bromley, Chislehurst, West Wickham, Orpington and Petts Wood, including Park Langley, Kelsey Park, Shortlands, Elmers End, Bickley, Hayes, Bromley Common, Coney Hall and Keston.
A room usually starts at around £1,000 + VAT and a hallway, stairs and landing at around £3,000 + VAT. Blown plaster, peeling paint or a lot of woodwork push it up, so the real figure comes after we've looked.
Always. We see the walls, the woodwork and anything that needs repairing first, because that is what sets the price. Send a few photos with your enquiry and we can tell you a lot before we arrive.
Colin and Harry Fry, father and son. Nobody else: no subcontractors and no labourers, just the two of us from the first dust sheet to the last coat.
