Professional Restaurant Painting Services in Dublin
OS Decor provides restaurant painting services for restaurants, cafés, pubs, bars and takeaways throughout Dublin, Kildare, Meath and Wicklow. As experienced restaurant painters, we know a dining room is judged the moment a guest walks in, and that a kitchen pass, a bar back or a busy corridor takes far more punishment than any wall at home.
Every project starts with a site visit and a detailed written estimate, and the work is planned around your trading hours, whether that means overnight shifts after last orders, a Monday closure or a phased programme one dining area at a time. Our team is fully insured, and every project is backed by our 12-month workmanship guarantee. For hotels, see our hotel painting services. For shops and retail units, offices and industrial premises, see our commercial painting services.
Restaurant Painting Services We Provide
- Dining room and bar area painting – walls, ceilings, feature walls and columns
- Kitchen and back-of-house painting with washable, grease-resistant coatings
- Exterior facade and shopfront painting, including signage surrounds, doors and window frames
- Woodwork, panelling, skirting and trim in durable satinwood or eggshell
- Toilets, corridors, stairwells and staff areas
- Wallpaper hanging and decorative finishes for feature walls
- Touch-up and maintenance visits between full repaints
Every specification is matched to the space – a kitchen wall, a bar front and a street-facing facade each need a different system, and we recommend the right one during your survey.
Hospitality Venues We Paint
- Restaurants and bistros
- Cafés and coffee shops
- Pubs, bars and gastropubs
- Takeaways and fast-casual units
- Hotel restaurants and function rooms
- Food halls, canteens and staff restaurants
From a 30-cover café to a multi-room gastropub, we scale the crew and programme to suit the venue.
Finishes That Stand Up to a Busy Service
A restaurant is one of the hardest environments a paint finish will ever face: steam and grease from the kitchen, chairs scraping walls, trays and coats brushing corridors, and cleaning chemicals every night. We specify scrubbable, stain-resistant coatings for dining areas, grease-resistant systems suitable for food preparation areas in kitchens and pass areas, and durable exterior paints for facades that face Dublin weather all year.
Where odour matters, and in a restaurant it always does, we use low-VOC, low-odour paints so you can reopen for service without a chemical smell greeting your guests. Read about our eco-friendly painting approach.
Out-of-Hours Restaurant Painting
Closing a restaurant for a week costs more than the painting. That is why most of our restaurant projects run overnight after last orders, on closure days such as Mondays, or in phases so one dining area stays open while another is painted. We can also schedule full repaints into the quieter weeks in January and late August. Furniture is moved or protected, floors and fittings are masked, and the room is cleaned and reset before your first booking. If a leak, a fire or a lease inspection means the work cannot wait, our emergency painting service is available.

Frequently Asked Questions
Restaurant painting costs depend on floor area, ceiling height, the condition of the surfaces, whether the kitchen and exterior are included, and whether the work runs overnight or in phases. No two venues are the same, so we provide a free, detailed written estimate after a site visit and you know the full cost before anything begins.
Yes. Most of our restaurant projects are completed overnight after last orders, on closure days, or in phases so part of the venue keeps trading. We protect furniture and fittings, keep dust and odour to a minimum and reset the room before your first sitting.
Kitchens and pass areas get washable, grease-resistant coatings suitable for food preparation environments. Dining rooms and bars get scrubbable, stain-resistant finishes that survive chairs, trays and nightly cleaning. Across the venue we use low-VOC, low-odour products so you can reopen quickly.
A dining room refresh is usually completed over a few nights. A full venue including kitchen, toilets and exterior typically runs over one to two weeks when phased around trading. We confirm the programme in your written estimate.
Yes. We paint facades, signage surrounds, doors and timber window frames, and we can respray uPVC and aluminium shopfronts through our spray painting service.
We provide restaurant painting throughout Dublin city and county, as well as Kildare, Meath and parts of Wicklow. If your venue is outside these areas, contact us and we will confirm availability.
