Oxfordshire
Microcement, limewash and high-end paint across Oxford, the Oxfordshire villages and rural North Oxfordshire.
Oxfordshire bridges Cotswolds-style heritage work in the north and west with a much more contemporary client base around Oxford, Henley, Marlow and the south of the county. We see two parallel briefs: limewash on Cotswold-edge stone houses near Chipping Norton and Witney, and modern microcement bathrooms and kitchens in the academic-and-tech belt around the city itself. High-end paint runs through both. The signature project for Oxfordshire is usually a transitional one — a stone house with a glass-and-steel kitchen extension, where the limewash and microcement meet at the threshold and have to read as a deliberate handoff.
Oxford city Victorian terraces, college mews and faculty housing, Cotswold-stone houses across North Oxfordshire, Henley-on-Thames and Marlow waterside properties, contemporary new-builds across the Oxford commuter villages.
Oxfordshire splits down the middle — the heritage axis wants soft, mineral, period-correct finishes; the academic-and-tech axis wants quietly contemporary, low-contrast, materially honest finishes. Both want craft.
- Microcement kitchen floors and bathrooms in Oxford city Victorian terraces.
- Limewash schemes in North Oxfordshire Cotswold-stone houses.
- High-end paint across academic-housing renovations.
- Microcement-and-limewash hybrid projects in country-house extensions.
- Henley waterside property microcement on river-facing kitchens.
A North Oxfordshire stone house near Chipping Norton: limewash in Pale Clay and Quicklime across the main rooms, microcement (Honey Sand) across the new oak-framed garden room. Seven-week phased programme.
Oxfordshire jobs within an hour of our base carry no travel surcharge. For projects in the far north of the county we apply the same small daily standing charge as Cotswolds projects.
Do you work in Oxford during term-time?+
Yes — for faculty and college housing we plan noisy stages around teaching weeks and adjust the programme to suit.
Can you handle a hybrid limewash-and-microcement project?+
Yes — these are some of our favourite projects. The handoff between the two materials is its own design decision and we treat it as such.
Henley waterside properties — does damp affect microcement?+
No — properly sealed microcement is unaffected by ambient humidity. We'd check the substrate's residual moisture before the basecoat goes down, the same as any other project.
