Before and after

Preparation

CAG DECO8 began by giving thorough attention to every surface in this family home. Dustless sanding was employed to prepare all interior surfaces for the upcoming paint application. This ensured that the surfaces were not only smooth but also free from dust, ensuring a pristine finish.

To address bare timber and plaster surfaces, knotting and filling imperfections were essential steps. These details created a clean canvas for the transformation ahead. Priming was also carried out to provide a solid foundation for the paint to adhere to, ensuring lasting results.

Additionally, caulking was applied, achieving seamless joints between walls, ceilings, and woodwork. These careful details ensured a polished and professional appearance that would enhance the overall aesthetic.

Painting

With the surfaces impeccably prepared, it was time to add a touch of elegance and durability to the living space. CAG DECO8 turned to a range of Tikkurila paint products to bring the vision to life.

For the bare plaster surfaces, Nova 2 was the ideal choice. Its properties make it perfect for plaster, ensuring not only a beautiful finish but also durability.

The ceilings and walls were painted in Optiva Ceramic 3. This full-matt paint is highly durable and easy to clean, making it perfect for a busy living space. Its ability to withstand wear and tear ensures that your space remains beautiful for years to come.

To finish the woodwork, Helmi 10 matt wood paint was applied. This choice not only adds style but also promises long-lasting beauty to the wood surfaces.

Client considerations were also taken into account during this transformation. The choice of colours and the presence of a young family required a durable and timeless finish. The paint selections and the meticulous execution of the project catered to both style and practicality.
