Living Room Painting Services
Walls and Ceiling
Living rooms across the Ipswich area vary considerably. Stoke Park 1930s semis have moderate ceiling heights with plastered ceilings.
Victorian properties in the Christchurch area have high ceilings with cornicing and ceiling roses. We approach each room on its own terms.
Bay Window Alcoves
Bay windows create three or four wall planes, each meeting at an internal angle. We work the bay last, after the main room walls, to achieve a seamless result.
Chimney Breast
The chimney breast is often the focal point of a living room. Some clients want it in a contrasting tone to the flanking walls.
For chimney breast feature wall work, see our feature wall painting page.
Coving and Cornicing
Victorian and Edwardian properties in the Christchurch area and Woodbridge have deep coving or ornate cornicing. We cut in by hand at the base of the cornicing profile.
Alcoves and Recesses
Alcoves flanking period fireplaces often have internal angles that need precision cutting. We use hand-cutting techniques to achieve clean, consistent colour across all surfaces.
Here’s How It Works
Assessment
We walk the room and assess surface condition, original features, and the scope. The exact scope is confirmed in writing.
Preparation
Walls are filled, sanded, and primed where needed. Original lime plaster in Victorian living rooms gets a breathable primer.
Painting
Ceilings are painted first, then main walls, then the chimney breast, then the bay. Internal corner joins are feathered while both sides are still wet.
Completion
Skirting boards, door frames, window sills, and any built-in woodwork are painted last. Final inspection is completed before we leave.
