Interior & exterior
A helping hand. A colour you’ll love.
Paint mixed for you
Choose a Dulux colour and tell us what you’re painting. We’ll help you work through suitable finishes, tin sizes and the amount you need.
Match a colour
Bring in a physical sample and we can scan it to find a close match. A clean, dry, flat sample gives us a better starting point than a photo on a phone.
Inside & outside
Walls, woodwork or an exterior refresh: we offer interior and exterior mixing, plus Dulux Trade options for homeowners and professional decorators.
Colour, finish and tin-size choices depend on the product and mixing bases available. Call us to check a particular combination before travelling.
HERITAGE BY DULUX
A home with character. A finish with Heritage.

Velvet Matt
A washable matt finish for interior walls, with a soft, velvety feel.
Eggshell
A smooth, low-sheen finish for interior woodwork and metal.
Let’s make it simple.

Bring your colour
A Dulux name or code, a colour card, or a physical sample for matching.
02
Tell us about the job

03
Choose & mix
We’ll confirm suitable options, the price and availability before mixing your paint.
Colour is only the beginning.
Walls & ceilings
From soft matt to a little sheen. Matt gives walls a low-sheen look, while silk reflects more light. For busy rooms ask about washable options. Heritage Velvet Matt for interior walls.
Wood & metal
Give your woodwork its moment. Eggshell offers a gentle sheen, satin a more polished look, gloss the shiniest option. Heritage Eggshell for interior woodwork and metal.
Exterior
Paint made for life outside. We offer exterior paint mixing. Tell us whether you are painting masonry, timber or metal so we can discuss suitable products and preparation.
Dulux Trade
Dulux Trade, with local advice. We offer Dulux Trade paint and mixing. Bring your colour reference and project details or the specification you are working to. Homeowners and professional decorators welcome. Check finish, quantity and availability with us.

Love that colour? Let’s work with it.
Our sample colour-matching service helps you find a close match for your project. Bring a physical sample into the shop so we can assess and scan it.

- Room, surface and approximate area
Try it in your own light.
Screen colours, lighting and sheen can change how a shade looks. A match may not be exact; ask about a tester and check the colour at home before committing to a full project.
