Project Snapshot

NMSM Construction was commissioned to refresh and modernise a residential flat in Surbiton, Surrey — preparing it for new tenants with a clean, professional finish.

The property required a full interior repaint, minor repairs, and lighting upgrades to improve brightness and restore surfaces to high standards. Our team managed the entire process — from surface preparation and crack repair to final detailing — delivering a durable, elegant result across all rooms.

Key Objectives

  • Repaint all walls and ceilings using high-grade trade paint
  • Apply moisture-resistant coatings in the kitchen and hallway
  • Restore woodwork including doors, frames, and skirting boards
  • Repair minor plaster imperfections
  • Create a bright, clean, and move-in-ready interior

Scope of Work

  • Surface sanding, priming, and crack repair
  • Application of Dulux Trade Brilliant White and complementary tones
  • Painting of built-in cupboards and woodwork
  • LED ceiling light replacement for improved energy efficiency
  • Final cleaning and quality inspection before handover

Challenges & Solutions

Aged Surfaces & Uneven Texture
Multiple paint layers and small cracks affected finish quality.
✅ Solution: Full sanding, skim-patching, and priming ensured a smooth, uniform surface.

Low Light in Kitchen Area
The galley kitchen lacked natural light.
✅ Solution: Sage green walls and satin white ceilings enhanced brightness without glare.

Tight Turnaround Before Tenant Move-In
The project had a strict 2-week deadline.
✅ Solution: A two-team rotation enabled efficient progress and on-time delivery.

Final Outcome

✅ Fresh, modern interior with consistent finish
✅ Durable paint system suited for daily use
✅ Enhanced brightness and space perception
✅ Completed on schedule with minimal disruption
