Multifunctional Spaces

Painted bespoke cabinetry

As multifunctional living becomes more of a necessity; boot rooms, walk-in pantries, utility rooms, intergrated bar and seating areas, media units and TV areas have emereged as sought-after features in the home. These multi-purpose, storage spaces can look amazing with a custom paint finish! Hand painting offers both durability and a hard wearing, long lasting finish.

My Story

Who am I?

I’m Russ Pike, a Nottingham-based, fully qualified and time-served City & Guilds Advanced Craftsman, traditional painter and specialist kitchen painter.

I’ve spent more than 40 years working in the decorating and finishing trade, and during that time Russ Pike Interiors has built a reputation for high standards, careful preparation and quality craftsmanship.

My main speciality is hand-painted kitchens and bespoke cabinetry. I work with homeowners throughout Nottinghamshire and the wider East Midlands, helping to transform tired, dated or simply unloved kitchens without the need to replace good-quality cabinetry.

I believe that the quality of the finished result starts with the preparation. Every kitchen is treated with care, from cleaning and sanding through to priming, fine finishing and the final coats. My aim is always to produce a finish that looks beautiful, feels right for the home and is made to last.

As well as kitchen painting, I also undertake high-quality period property decoration, including the installation, restoration and decorative finishing of traditional Lincrusta wallcoverings, dados and friezes.

I also have extensive experience in wood restoration, French polishing and fine finishing, working on a wide range of interior surfaces and period features.

What I enjoy most about my work is giving well-made kitchens, furniture and interiors a new lease of life. Whether I’m transforming a kitchen, restoring original woodwork or decorating a period home, I bring the same approach to every project: care, craftsmanship, attention to detail and pride in the finished result.

With many years of knowledge and experience in hand painting kitchens and period home decoration this lead me onto becoming a painting craft teacher at my local college. Teaching painting and decorating advanced craft for a number of years and where I also qualified as an NVQ Trainer/Assessor and Painting Lecturer. My years of passion and dedication to this craft has been the main core of success to the business and I still enjoy what I do and fulfilling peoples visions and expectations.

Colours for your Kitchen

Choosing the right colour palette can completely transform the look and feel of your kitchen and cabinetry, so it is important to get it right.

With many years of experience working with colour, finishes and interiors, I can offer practical guidance to help you choose shades that complement your kitchen, cabinetry and the character of your home. I also keep a close eye on current colour trends, as well as the palettes being used by leading kitchen designers and manufacturers, which can be a useful source of inspiration.

The specialist paint systems I use are carefully selected for their durability, longevity and lower environmental impact. With the correct care and maintenance, they provide a hard-wearing finish designed to stand up well to everyday use.

I am not limited to one particular manufacturer’s colour chart. The paint systems I use can be colour matched to many of the most popular designer and heritage palettes, giving you an extensive choice of colours.

Russ has done a beautiful job of our kitchen. It now looks like new and the paint quality is great. He also turned up when he said he would, worked cleanly and I was happy to have him in our house. Completely recommend.
