The difference is in the preparation

Anyone can roll paint on a wall. A finish that still looks perfect in five years comes from what happens before the first coat.

  • Laser-levelled layout planned around sockets and switches
  • Moisture-resistant MDF, glued and pinned
  • Every joint filled, sanded and caulked
  • Two coats of hard-wearing eggshell

Colour-drenching

How colour-drenching works

One colour on walls, woodwork and sometimes the ceiling — it makes rooms feel bigger, calmer and more considered.

One hue, two finishes

Matt on walls, eggshell on woodwork.

Hides awkward features

Radiators and pipes disappear.

Built-ins

Bespoke alcove joinery, painted in

  • Alcove cupboards & floating shelves
  • Integrated LED shelf lighting
  • Colour-matched to walls & woodwork
  • Brass, leather or wooden handles

Chorlton and Levenshulme terraces, where every alcove is crying out for storage.
