About
With 50 years of experience in the country’s finest Grade I listed buildings; Britain & Co are at the forefront of crafting timeless British decoration. From historically accurate work with original materials to practical re-creations of historic decoration using new materials, we assist heritage professionals to present their vision of the most important heritage interiors.
Our experience in historic schemes is extensive, with both directors involved in running projects during their careers at Windsor Castle, Buckingham Palace, The Victoria & Albert Museum and many others. We have advised on colours, decoration and techniques drawing on our unrivalled experience of historic decoration.
Our directors have worked at the highest levels of quality for many years and we know that an excellent finish requires passion and dedication.
The fundamental part of quality is excellent preparation. We know that our team of tradespeople represent your vision and your reputation, and appreciate you placing your trust in us. Our decorators are all fully qualified and in many cases have decades of experience. We are also passionate about passing on our skills and regularly train apprentices in all aspects of decoration and restoration.
We are a small but perfectly formed company of decorators, gilders and restorers with a passion for decoration. With over a half-century of experience, our directors Cathy Littlejohn and Chris Britain are experts in the fields of specialist decoration, decorative art and the conservation of historic buildings. We are passionate about British craftsmanship and passing on works of decorative art to the next generation. We work with interior designers, architects and private clients to create and preserve beautiful spaces.
