Our Story

​

Blades Decorators & Merchants began in 1984, when our founder, David Blades, first set out on his career as a painter and decorator. What started as a one-man operation fuelled by passion and craftsmanship has, over four decades, grown into a trusted local business with a dedicated team of seven specialist decorators.

​

Thousand of jobs completed​

​

From heritage homes and new-builds to commercial spaces and bespoke interiors, Blades Decorators has proudly completed thousands of projects across North Yorkshire and beyond. Every job is a reflection of our commitment to quality, attention to detail and a genuine love for the trade.

​

Our Northallerton Store

​

Years of hands-on experience taught David which products truly stand the test of time. In 2021, he opened our first retail store in Northallerton to share that expertise with others. At Blades Decorators & Merchants, we only stock the paints, brushes and materials we use ourselves - so you can be confident that every product on our shelves is tried, tested and trusted by professionals.
