Drawing Room

This drawing room in Mayfield, East Sussex, required a touch of warmth, and our clients' choice of colour was just right. The transformation is evident in our before-and-after photos. Prior to painting, we diligently prepared the walls, addressing cracks and cabling needs. The walls, columns, and dado rail received three coats of Edward Bulmer Jonquil at a 60% shade, while the woodwork was beautifully finished in Edward Bulmer Spanish White eggshell. For the ceiling and cornice, we opted for Tikkurila Anti Reflex, ensuring a flawless finish. Our commitment to preparation, dedication, and perfection shines through in every detail.

Dining in style

We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have been given the opportunity to elevate the ambience of this dining room in Mayfield, East Sussex, and infuse the space with the grandeur it truly deserved. Extensive preparations were necessary, and the meticulous details, such as the careful cutting of channels by the electricians for the new lighting, contributed to the remarkable transformation captured in the before, during, and after images. The pristine coat of Tikkurila Anti Reflex 2 in white on the ceiling ensured a fresh and bright atmosphere, while the walls received meticulous priming with the appropriate Farrow & Ball primer, laying the foundation for the ambient transformation. The application of the captivating Farrow & Ball Red Earth and Dimity in the new Dead Flat range breathed new life into the walls, adding warmth and character to the space. These hues were further complemented by the elegant paintwork in Farrow & Ball Estate Eggshell Dimity, gracefully adorning the woodwork and completing the sophisticated and timeless look of the dining room. Our team took great pride in bringing this vision to life and creating a space that exudes elegance and charm.

Wallpaper Trending For 2023

Wallpaper seems to be trending for us this year, with more projects to be posted here in the next few weeks so keep checking our news section for some ideas you may like.

This bedroom in Tunbridge Wells had old wallpaper peeling in sections and needed sprucing up.

The reason for this is that the paper had been hung on a painted surface and had been applied to fresh plaster which had not been sealed, this caused the layers of paint to strip away from the walls with the paper and caused an absolute mess and a big headache for us.

Once the paper had been stripped we had to scrape the walls and remove as much paint as we could followed by lots of sanding and filling.

We cross lined the walls then we set up about hanging this beautiful wallpaper from Colefax & Fowler.

As you can see from the before and after pictures how we got the best result from our meticulous prep work.
