Make your home
your own

Decorating and maintenance across Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole. One number for everything a house needs - painting, shelves up, flat-pack built, the little jobs sorted.

Just moved in? Let's get it sorted.

You've got the keys, the boxes, and fifteen years of someone else's taste on the walls. Second Coat is who you call to make it yours - repaint the rooms, put the mirrors and shelves up, build the wardrobes, fix the bits the survey politely ignored. Decorating done properly, and all the maintenance jobs that come with a new home, from one company you can actually trust.

The name is a promise.

The first coat covers. The second coat finishes.

Plenty of people do one coat and go home. We don't. It's the name because it's how we work: the boring prep done before the fun bit, the job properly finished rather than nearly finished, and the place left tidier than we found it.

What we help with

Decorating, and everything else a house asks for.

Decorating

Interior and exterior painting, wallpapering, prep and making good. The room you actually wanted.

Maintenance & odd jobs

Shelves, mirrors, TV brackets, flat-pack, sticking doors, silicone, the whole snag list - ticked off in one visit.

Ongoing care

A half day or full day each month for the jobs that never quite get done. Ideal for busy homes, landlords and holiday lets.
