01

The challenge

Hairline cracks around the window, a yellowed ceiling, chipped skirting and heavily scuffed magnolia walls. The clients wanted a calm, modern room without losing warmth.

02

Our solution

Cracks raked out and filled, ceiling stain-blocked, woodwork sanded and primed. Two coats of soft blue-grey matt with brilliant white satin woodwork.

03

The result

A bright, restful bedroom finished in two days, furniture back in place and the room spotless — with leftover paint labelled for touch-ups.
