From walls, floors and furniture to radiators, skirtings and sheds, our range of paint finishes can help you transform almost any surface in your home (and outside it, too). We even have multi-surface finishes like Dead Flat, so you can tackle walls, woodwork and metal at the same time.

All Farrow & Ball paints, from our matte emulsions to our brilliant gloss, are made with a water base. That means they’re safer, faster-drying, lower in odour and VOCs, and better for the world we share, with absolutely no compromise on colour or performance.
