From a vibrant choice of colour to something a little more subtle for this bedroom. A change is as good as a rest.
First x2 pics original colour.
Client opted for a light pastel pink for all of the walls. The pastel pink was a great choice. A colour that is easy on the eye, very subtle and leaves the space feeling a lot bigger.

We used the faithful on this one! If ever you are looking at getting rid of stains, indelible marks, mould, sweat patches we recommend using oil based Zinser. This is liquid gold to a painter and Decorator. Now you see it…now you don’t.

When the paint starts peeling. And you didn’t see that in your quote. Scrape off the flakey paint gingerly until you have an edge that won’t lift. If the patch feels damp apply damp seal. Allow a day to dry before applying filler. Sand back with fine scratch. Apply x2 coats emulsion for finish.

Always apply knotting solution to new wood with knots. Apply it properly, then you won’t kick yourself later on down the line. If knot (excuse the pun) applied properly, then expect brown circles to keep appearing in your woodwork!

Time for a colour change. What a difference. Original looking a little dated and in need of some T.L.C.
White matt ceiling. A light green on the walls ( Farrow and Ball colour mixed by Johnstones in an acrylic durable matt).
White gloss on the woodwork and white Satinwood on the radiators.
