Commercial Painting Services
Heritage Shopfronts and Listed Premises
The Pantiles colonnade and the frontages on The High Street contain many listed or conservation-area commercial buildings. Paint specification follows the same rules as residential listed work: breathable coatings on stucco and correct primers for each surface.
Retail Unit Repaints
A retail unit repaint covers interior walls, ceiling, shopfront exterior, and all internal woodwork. The brief is to complete work with minimal disruption to trading, meaning careful sequencing and out-of-hours working.
Hospitality and Leisure Premises
Restaurants, cafes, and leisure venues need rapid turnover. We use quick-drying, low-odour products and schedule work between trading hours.
Office Interiors
Office repaints in Civic Way and the commercial quarter run to a different brief from period residential work. We manage access logistics and provide a programme schedule with the quote.
Landlord and Investment Properties
For vacant units, we can typically assess, quote, and begin within a week. We also cover residential work — see our exterior painting and interior painting pages.
Our Commercial Painting Process
1. Site Assessment
We visit the premises and assess surface types, condition, any listed or conservation area constraints, and working-hours requirements.
2. Method Statement
For larger contracts we provide a method statement covering programme, access arrangements, and special materials requirements.
3. Surface Preparation
Walls washed, cracks filled, and surfaces primed appropriately before any finish coat is applied.
4. Paint Application
Quick-drying products used where programme requirements are tight. Heritage surfaces receive breathable, lime-compatible products.
5. Completion and Handover
Premises returned in a clean and usable state. Final touch-ups completed before trading hours resume.

Commercial Painting Costs in Tunbridge Wells
Commercial painting varies widely by scope, surface type, and access requirements.
What Drives the Price
Floor area and ceiling height, working hours and access constraints, and heritage requirements all affect the cost.
Typical Ranges
Retail unit interior: £2,500–£5,000. Heritage shopfront: £3,500–£15,000+. Office interior (single floor): £4,000–£12,000.
Heritage Premium
Listed and conservation area buildings require specialist products and longer drying intervals. This adds cost but is non-negotiable on the correct surfaces. For heritage exterior work, see our period property painting page.
