Respectful Restoration and Expert Decorating for Historic Buildings

Offering

Specialist Painting Services for Heritage, Listed & Cultural Sites

GME Group brings decades of experience to heritage projects across the UK, including churches, theatres, museums and listed public buildings. Each project is treated with care and respect, using traditional and specialist materials to preserve the character of the site.

Our decorators are trained in the application of mineral paints and breathable coatings designed for older surfaces, including natural stone and lime-based substrates. We work closely with conservation teams and clients to ensure finishes are historically appropriate and technically sound.

From high-level beams and decorated ceilings to feature walls and newer areas within historic sites, we ensure our workmanship elevates and protects the fabric of every building we touch.
