Sunningdale has a lot of well-kept homes. Older detached properties with original features, newer executive builds, a few cottages that need a bit more thought. Most have been looked after carefully, and the owners expect the same from whoever they bring in.
Blue Egg Décor has been doing this work for over 30 years. It is not a large crew. Just reliable decorating, done properly, on time, to a consistent standard. Most of the work here comes through word of mouth, which is usually a good sign.
These aren’t just numbers – they represent thousands of hours of workmanship, preparation and care.
Sunningdale has been a regular patch for a long time. Work comes in steadily, often from the same households returning after a few years, or from a neighbour who has seen a finished job and asked who did it.
Most jobs are in occupied homes. Families at home, people working from a spare room, the occasional dog. You adjust. It means keeping things tidy at the end of each day, being sensible about timing and noise, and not treating someone’s home like a building site.
The properties here vary. Some have period features that need careful handling around cornices, architraves and window surrounds that have built up layers over the decades. Others are newer builds where the surfaces are straightforward but the expected finish is still high. Both get the same level of care.
Turns up when agreed. No unexplained late starts. If something changes, you hear about it beforehand.
Clear communication throughout. The quote is written and covers what was discussed. If anything changes on the job, it gets flagged before anything happens.
Preparation done properly. Filling, sanding, priming. The finish is only as good as what goes on underneath, so that part does not get rushed.
Home kept tidy. Dust sheets down, tools put away, rooms left in a reasonable state at the end of each working day.
Consistent standard from start to finish. The work on the last day looks the same as the work on the first.
All services listed below reflect the work we actively carry out in Sunningdale and the surrounding area.
Walls, ceilings, full rooms or a single space that needs refreshing. The prep, number of coats and finish all get agreed before a brush goes near anything.
The areas that show wear first and make the biggest visual difference when done properly. Getting a clean finish on wood takes more time than most expect.
Older Sunningdale homes can have walls painted many times over, uneven patches, or previous work that was not done well. Preparation is not something that gets skipped.
Most work is domestic. Occasionally a small office, meeting room or commercial space comes up locally. The approach is the same regardless.
No surprises. Here is what to expect from start to finish.
A walk around in person is worth more than a phone conversation. The quote comes in writing afterwards, covering everything discussed.
Furniture moved and covered, floors protected, surfaces filled and sanded before any paint goes on.
Done in the right order, with proper drying time between coats. No cutting short to finish a day early.
The job gets looked over before anything is packed away. Rooms put back, waste removed, everything left as it should be.

The housing in Sunningdale covers a fair range. There are large detached houses that have been in families for a long time, some with period details that need care around cornices, dado rails and window surrounds. Alongside those are more recent executive houses where the brief tends to be clean, neutral and smart throughout.
Expectations here are consistent. People tend to use tradespeople they trust and come back when the next job comes up. A lot of bookings are made ahead of time by existing customers, or through a recommendation from someone who knows the work.
Parking and access is generally fine around Sunningdale, though some older properties have tighter driveways. That gets checked on the initial visit so there are no problems on the first day.
As well as Sunningdale itself, Blue Egg Décor covers nearby Ascot, Virginia Water, Sunninghill, Windlesham and Bagshot. Work in those areas comes in alongside Sunningdale jobs regularly, and many customers move across more than one of these villages over the years.

A few things that tend to come up before a booking is made.
Every job is different so a fixed price without seeing the work is not something that gets offered here. A single room typically runs to a few hundred pounds once preparation and materials are accounted for. Larger jobs are costed properly after a site visit. The quote comes in writing with no obligation.
A single room in reasonable condition is usually two to three days. A full interior across a larger Sunningdale property, particularly one with a lot of woodwork or surfaces that need significant preparation, can be three to four weeks. The quote will always include a realistic time estimate.
Filling, sanding, priming and masking are all part of the job. They are not charged as extras. On older properties in particular, preparation can take up a significant portion of the overall time, and that is reflected honestly in the quote from the start.
Yes. Most jobs are in occupied homes, families at home, people working from a room nearby. That means keeping things tidy at the end of each day, being sensible about noise and access, and not treating someone's house like a building site. It is standard practice after this many years.
Occasionally. Small offices, reception areas and similar commercial spaces come up in and around Sunningdale from time to time. The approach is the same as for domestic work. Worth a call if you have something in mind.
As well as Sunningdale itself, work is taken on regularly in Ascot, Virginia Water, Sunninghill, Windlesham, Bagshot and Wentworth. If you are just outside that range it is still worth getting in touch, depending on the size of the job.
No. Furniture is moved and covered as part of the job. Floors are protected before work begins. Everything goes back before leaving at the end.
