What kind of decorating business fits?

Black Tier is interested in established commercial decorating businesses with repeat customers or multi-site programmes. A useful starting point is how work repeats and how the team delivers it.

Where the conversation goes

  • Repeat commercial clients and estate programmes
  • Estimating, supervision and labour arrangements
  • Finish standards, handover and client retention

Commercial contracts, not one-off jobs.

  1. 01

    Multi-site clients

    Care groups, hotels, schools and estates that decorate on a planned cycle.

  2. 02

    Supply-chain relationships

    Work for facilities-management companies and main contractors.

  3. 03

    Programme delivery

    Phasing, occupied-premises working and consistent finishes across sites.

  4. 04

    Standards

    Health and safety, insurance and accreditations that open the door to larger clients.

Why decorating sits close to the group.

The group already owns Redmeres Ltd, a new commercial painting and decorating company. It is a separate business, and acquisition conversations with owners are handled apart from Redmeres’ own trading.

If your decorating business works for repeat commercial clients, it is worth a conversation — we will tell you plainly whether it fits our criteria.
