Decorating Argyll Road

Argyll Road is a broad Victorian residential street in Kensington, connecting Kensington High Street to the quieter streets of the Holland Road neighbourhood. The street is characterised by tall, imposing Victorian terraced properties — many now converted into flats — featuring stucco-fronted facades, deep bay windows, and ornate cornicing. Its tree-lined pavements and proximity to Kensington's parks give it a particularly pleasant aspect.

The tall stucco facades of Argyll Road's Victorian terraces require working at height, typically involving scaffolding for full external redecoration, and careful surface preparation of rendered elevations that may show cracking and staining from decades of London weather. Interior work in converted flats often involves upgrading communal areas as well as individual apartments.
