Home Renovation is an exciting journey, transforming a house into a home that reflects your unique style and meets your needs.
Among the various elements that contribute to this transformation are the finishing touches, The interior and exterior painting of your home renovation will bring everything together and make it feel like home.
Choosing the right finish for the internal walls of your home can affect the durability. Matt finishes are great for hiding the imperfections of old walls while satin finishes are easier to clean and more durable in high traffic areas. Chris the proud owner of a barn conversion in Norfolk approached us to paint the family bathroom at his home in Burnham Overy Staithe. Choosing to go with Farrow & Ball paint, Marcus our resident painter and decorator with over 15 years of painting and decorating experience, applied the 3 coat system to obtain a consistent finish. Chris was over the moon with the results “ The finish is amazing” he said “ He truly is a Master Craftsman” They were so pleased with the results that later in the year they called us back to paint the exterior of the property.
Norfolk cottages are famous for their flint stonework and lime plaster walls. These walls need to breathe and standard paint finishes can trap moisture and cause damp and mould, Earthborne Claypaint is a luxurious ultra matt finish for interior walls and ceilings.
The matt finish hid all the imperfections of Sarahs 100 year old cottage walls and the clay paint allowed them to breathe.
Wherever you are decorating, preparation is the key, it’s especially important when painting outside where there is weather damage to exterior paintwork. Proper preparation is essential for a long lasting finish. This will involve scraping, filling, sanding and priming surfaces to ensure the paint adheres to the surfaces properly and survives the Norfolk weather. Jill recently approached us to do just this to the exterior woodwork at her home in the village of Sedgeford, West Norfolk.
“Thank you very much indeed for overseeing the painting of my windows and cladding. They are now sparkling with another lease of life, having looked particularly sad of late with the bashing of the north wind being close to the Norfolk Coast. Its rather like the house has had a facelift”
As you complete your home renovation, painting is the finishing touch that can elevate your entire project. It's not just about aesthetics, the right colours & finishes can enhance your home, improve the longevity and create a great first impression.
