Newly purchased, this house needed a lot of work. The woodwork had been neglected for years and was yellow, peeling and damaged through wear and tear.
All ceilings, walls and woodwork needed sanding back to remove previous paint drips and dents needed to be filled.
Once prepared, there was one single colour scheme chosen for the main areas of the house.
Cornflower white (a light grey colour) for the walls and Colour de Nimes for the woodwork.
The feature wall in the living room is in a dark green, which helps to tie in the greys with the furnishings.
The wallpaper needed to be stripped, walls cleaned and sealed and the hole in the wall fixing.
The skirting board was re-positioned and fixed back onto the wall, then the whole room painted.
Years of smoking in this property had left the walls stained with tar and nicotine from as far back as the 1950s.
Three layers of wallpaper on some walls had all been saturated with smoke over the years so it all had to come off.
After a deep clean and sand, each surface was ready for some stain block before the usual paint system.
The light pink walls and white ceiling had stain damage from existing damp problems through the old farmhouse walls.
The source of the damp problem was fixed, the wall had dried out and tested for moisture content. When dry it was ready for preparing, sealing and painting.
The final finished room featuring a hot Moroccan style colour scheme.
