Notting Hill’s signature is the 1850s Ladbroke Estate — the curved stucco crescents around Stanley, Lansdowne, Elgin, and the garden-communal terraces of Pembridge Square, Powis Square, Kensington Park Road. The famous W11 colour pack of pink, blue and yellow stucco fronts sits on top of a quietly disciplined property stock: garden-square access, listed-building density, RBKC Conservation Area coverage across most of the postcode.
Decorating Notting Hill: stucco-paint discipline (the colour fronts need maintenance), garden-square access rules, RBKC documentation, designer-led palette specification. Most programmes are private-client direct or interior-designer specified.

Learn moreNotting Hill is two-and-a-half characters in one postcode. The Ladbroke Estate west side — Stanley Crescent, Lansdowne Crescent, Elgin Crescent — carries the curved stucco terraces with their famous coloured fronts. The Pembridge / Powis Square zone carries the garden-communal Victorian terraces. And Westbourne Park Road carries the eclectic conversions and ex-bedsit refurbishments that gentrified the area in the 1990s.
On the ground that means stucco discipline (lime washes, mineral paints, breathable systems for the painted fronts), Conservation Area documentation, RBKC compliance, and the operational care that lets garden-square communities keep functioning while work is in progress.
Excellent service from start to finish. The team was responsive, knowledgeable, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Communication was clear, and the quality of work exceeded expectations. Would definitely use their services again and highly recommend them.
Exceptional Service and Results! I couldn’t be happier with the service I received from Borthwick Decorators! From start to finish, they exceeded my expectations in every way. David and his team were professional, courteous, and incredibly skilled.
Yes. Most of Notting Hill sits in RBKC, Westminster or City Conservation Areas with substantial listed-building density. We hold the heritage specialism and documentation discipline conservation officers expect.
All of W11, W2. Strongest concentration of recent work on Pembridge Square, Ladbroke Grove, Westbourne Park Road and the surrounding garden squares.
Frequently. Most of our Notting Hill work is designer- or architect-specified. We support sample boards, attend site meetings as part of the design team, and execute to RIBA briefs.
We coordinate licensing with the borough, hold our own scaffolding cover, and work to the borough's Conservation specification for listed and Conservation Area facades.
Single-room refreshes through to whole-house programmes. Most Notting Hill work runs three to twelve weeks. Listed buildings and conservation-area properties get the consent paperwork and quiet conduct they need.
Public liability insurance to £10 million.
