Welcome to Borthwick Decorators Aberfeldy
Borthwick Decorators has painted Aberfeldy homes and businesses since 1959 — Highland Perthshire stone terraces, estate cottages through Breadalbane, and Tay-side villas. CHAS, SDF and PDA accredited, rated 4.9/5 from 175+ verified reviews.
Tay-side stone, estate country.
Aberfeldy sits where Highland Perthshire opens out along the Tay — a compact town of stone terraces around Kenmore Street and Bank Street, with a wide hinterland of estate cottages, farmhouses and country homes running up into Breadalbane and out towards Loch Tay. The work here mixes tight town stone with exposed rural property miles from the nearest neighbour.
We cover interior and exterior decoration, sash windows, period and estate finishes and commercial premises. Same foreman across the job, daily clean-up, and a fixed quote agreed before we start.

ABOUT ABERFELDY
The gateway to Breadalbane.
Aberfeldy is the natural centre for a wide stretch of Highland Perthshire — a stone town on the Tay, ringed by estate land, farms and country homes running up towards Loch Tay and Glen Lyon. It is a place where a decorator needs to handle a tight town terrace one day and an exposed estate cottage up a single-track road the next.
We have worked across Aberfeldy and Breadalbane since 1959. CHAS, SDF and PDA accredited, residential and commercial, with the same foreman from quote to final walk-round.
PERTHSHIRE CLIENT FEEDBACK
A small sample from our Perthshire portfolio.
Had the interior of our main Pitlochry office painted & exterior of our 2nd office in Aberfeldy painted, both carried out to an exceptionally high standard and with minimal disruption. Highly commend the decorators for their professionalism & attention to detail.
The Borthwick team, headed up by Kamil decorated six rooms for us recently, including repainting our hand painted kitchen and utility units.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Working with us in Aberfeldy.
Do you cover estate and country property around Aberfeldy?
Yes — estate cottages, farmhouses and lodges across Breadalbane and towards Loch Tay are a regular part of our Aberfeldy work, alongside the town itself.
Can you handle exposed Highland exterior work?
We can. Remote, weather-facing property needs proper preparation and breathable, durable systems, and we coordinate access to single-track and rural sites.
Do you repaint original timber windows?
Wherever the timber is sound — repair, repaint and draught-proof, replacing cills only where rot demands it.
Where are you based, and is there a travel charge?
We have a Perth office and have served Highland Perthshire since 1959. Aberfeldy and Breadalbane are part of our regular run — no separate travel charge, and the quote is the price.
How quickly can you start?
Usually four to six weeks for residential work, sometimes sooner. We confirm the date when we quote.
