County-town stone beneath the Ochils.
Alloa is the county town of Clackmannanshire, a former brewing and industrial centre on the Forth that kept a solid stock of Victorian terraces and villas around the town and the historic stone of Alloa Tower. Beneath the Ochils and the Hillfoots villages, it mixes period property with modern family housing across the district.
We cover interior and exterior decoration, sash window work, common-stair redecoration and commercial premises. Same foreman across the job, daily clean-up, and a fixed quote before we start.

ABOUT ALLOA
Clackmannanshire's county town.
Alloa, the county town of Clackmannanshire, made its name in brewing, glass and textiles on the upper Forth, and kept a solid Victorian centre of terraces and villas along with the historic Alloa Tower. Beneath the Ochils and the Hillfoots, it ranges from period town stock to modern family estates across the district.
We have decorated across Alloa since 1959. CHAS, SDF and PDA accredited, residential and commercial, with the period specialism the older stock needs and the same foreman from quote to final inspection.
CENTRAL SCOTLAND CLIENT FEEDBACK
A small sample from our Central Scotland portfolio.
We had the painters in monday and Tuesday this week to paint our living room, kitchen and hall stair landing. What a cracking job they have done, polite throughout and even had cuddles for my wee dog. Cant rate high enough and a very quality job was completed.
Very extensive interior decorating just finished here. It was long, long overdue and needed a lot of crack filling and preparation in general.The effort and time put in to getting a good finished quality exceeded my expectations - I'm a bit of a perfectionist.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Working with us in Alloa.
Do you cover the Hillfoots villages too?
Yes — Sauchie, Tullibody and the Hillfoots villages beneath the Ochils are part of our regular Alloa run.
Do you handle the Victorian villa and terrace stock?
We do — cornice repair, breathable systems and period colour for the older town property are core to what we do here.
Can you redecorate a common stair?
Yes — coordinated with the factor and residents, phased so the stair stays usable throughout.
Where are you based, and is there a travel charge?
We have a Stirling office just across the Forth and have served the area since 1959. Alloa is a short run — no separate travel charge, and the quote is the price.
How quickly can you start?
Usually four to six weeks for residential work, sooner for smaller jobs. We confirm the date when we quote.
