Make your home
your own

Decorating and maintenance across Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole. One number for everything a house needs after you move in - 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 the person 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 trusted pair of hands.

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: prepped properly, edges cut in clean, done once and done right.

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