Decorating Ideas & Colour Schemes
It might be of interest to you to know what the decorating trends are amongst our clients.
Today, the trend seems to be away from the use of anaglypta and very much leaning towards the use of lining paper followed by emulsion or simply applying emulsion paint alone.
Wallpapering one “feature wall” in a Living Room or Bedroom is very much in vogue. Painting a feature wall in a different colour is also very popular.
During the ‘80s and ‘90s there was a large demand for fitting borders, dado rails and picture rails but in our experience this no longer seems to be the fashion.
Concerning paintwork finishes, i.e. gloss, satinwood or eggshell -
With regards to ceilings, the demand for Artex is now very low but there is an increasing interest in replacing Artex with a smooth, plastered finish.
Colour Schemes
Colour trends change from year to year and the best way to find the current trends is to look in one of the many interiors magazines at your newsagent.
We hope this helps you with your interior decorating ideas.

“I felt I must write to let you know how pleased we are with the finished result of your firm’s decorating. It is really excellent, especially the wallpapering with which my family, who are all ‘D.I.Y.ers’, are green with envy!” Mrs. W.
“May we thank you. We are very pleased with the quality of the work which is
excellent, but also the politeness and conscientiousness of the decorator. We would be very happy to give a reference of your work if you require at any time in the future. We will also be in touch if we need any further work doing in the future. Thanks again for a very professional job and may we finally add that one of the things we liked particularly in addition to the quality of the work was the way you kept us informed throughout of the progress etc.” Mr. D.
