Case study
The project
A closer look at the original condition, the preparation involved and how the finished result was achieved.
The Brief
The hallway, stairwell and landing needed a complete refresh, with the aim of creating a smooth and consistent finish across all walls and ceilings before decoration.
The Challenge
The existing surfaces required preparation and localised repairs before they could be skimmed. The stairwell also included awkward angles and high areas that needed careful attention to achieve a consistent finish throughout.
Our Approach
Floors and surrounding areas were protected before the walls and ceilings were prepared. Damaged areas were repaired, the surfaces were brought into a suitable condition and skim coats were applied throughout the hallway, stairwell and landing.
The Result
The completed space has a smooth, uniform finish across the walls, ceilings, reveals and internal angles, leaving the full hall, stairs and landing ready for decoration.
