for Managed Buildings.
Communal areas experience frequent contact, cleaning and footfall while remaining important access and escape routes.
Trades 247 coordinates communal decoration for landlords, managing agents, facilities teams and block or estate managers nationwide.
We assess surfaces, access, occupancy, escape routes, working hours, protection, coatings, signage and communication requirements.
Practical support for facilities managers, landlords, managing agents and commercial occupiers.

Entrances and shared reception spaces can be redecorated for a professional first impression.

Decoration can be planned around safe access, handrails, edge protection and escape-route requirements.
Shared Kitchens and Facilities
Suitable common rooms and shared amenities can be included within scope.
Doors and Frames
Compatible communal doors, frames and trims can be decorated without compromising fire-door identification or hardware.
Local Making Good
Minor holes, cracks and surface damage can be prepared where suitable.

Communal Area Decorating FAQs
Can communal areas remain open during the work?
Often, with phased areas, barriers, signage and agreed access arrangements.
Can you work in residential blocks?
Yes. We support managing agents, landlords and property managers, subject to agreed resident communication and site rules.
Do you paint communal fire doors?
Suitable compatible coatings may be used, but labels, seals, gaps, hardware and required fire performance must not be compromised.
What paint is suitable for busy corridors?
The choice depends on substrate, cleaning regime, sheen, durability and fire or specification requirements.
Can several buildings be scheduled together?
Yes. Programmes can be coordinated across estates or managed portfolios.
