Tolworth is full of character, from mid-century suburbs to pockets of classic Victorian and Edwardian homes. Many of these properties have beautiful details – lime-mortar brickwork, timber sash windows, ornate plaster ceilings and steep slate roofs. They look fantastic, but they also need the right kind of care. We always use traditional, breathable materials so your home can “breathe” properly. Cheap, modern, sealed coatings might look fine at first, but they trap moisture and can quickly lead to damp walls and crumbling masonry.
KHS works with homeowners and businesses right across the KT5 and KT6 areas. You’ll often find us decorating character homes near Alexandra Park or freshening up shopfronts along Tolworth Broadway. We also look after quiet residential streets on the Surbiton and Hook borders, as well as the area’s newest apartment buildings and contemporary housing developments.
Modern homes need a slightly different approach. Timber cladding, rendered panels and powder-coated metalwork all weather in their own way and benefit from regular care. Whether you live in a classic suburban semi or a sleek new-build apartment, we’ll keep your property weatherproof, protected and looking its best.
KHS was founded in September 2011 and is run by Michael Brebe, who brings more almost 15 years of hands-on, high-end decorating experience to every project.

Painting & Decorating in Tolworth: Your Questions Answered
Q: Can you work overnight for commercial decorating jobs on Tolworth Broadway?
A: Yes, we can. We know that closing during the day can mean losing income, so we’re happy to work evenings, nights or weekends for local shops and cafes. We use fast-drying, low-odour paints so your business is ready to open again as soon as possible.
Q: Do you repair and decorate original lath-and-plaster ceilings in older Tolworth homes?
A: We do. Many period properties near the Surbiton border still have their original lath-and-plaster ceilings. We carefully stabilise any sagging areas, repair cracks using flexible, breathable fillers and finish with traditional distemper or flat emulsion paints to help reduce the risk of moisture build-up and future cracking.
Q: Do I need council approval to change the exterior colour of my home in Tolworth?
A: It depends. If your home is in a conservation area (for example, parts of the Sunray Estate) or covered by specific Kingston Borough planning rules, you may need to stick to certain colour ranges. Refreshing the existing colour is usually fine, but big changes can sometimes need approval. We can help you check what applies to your property and choose colours that both look great and meet local guidelines.
Q: How long does a typical exterior repaint take for a semi-detached house in Tolworth?
A: For a three-bedroom 1930s semi-detached home along roads like Princes Avenue or Hamilton Avenue, a full exterior repaint usually takes around four to six working days. This weather makes a huge difference, especially when we are repairing cracks in render or painting exterior woodwork. We keep a close eye on the local forecast and update you each day. In this way, you will know exactly how the job is progressing.
Q: How do we handle the cost of parking permits for your vans while you work?
A: You do not need to worry about the paperwork. If your road is in a Kingston Council Controlled Parking Zone or needs visitor vouchers, we can arrange parking permits directly through the council. We talk through parking during our first visit and include any permit costs in our final written quote, so no surprises on your final bill.
