Kitchen Repainting – South Grey Street, Edinburgh (Newington)

We recently completed a kitchen repainting project in Edinburgh’s Newington area, where the condition of the surfaces presented a few key challenges. The kitchen, part of a traditional property, had a peeling ceiling and freshly plastered walls—both needing thorough preparation before painting could begin.

The Challenges

• Peeling and damaged ceiling requiring stripping and repair

• Newly plastered walls needing proper sealing to ensure paint adhesion

• A high-moisture environment calling for durable, breathable finishes

Our Approach
We began by carefully treating the ceiling—removing all loose material, sealing the surface, and making it smooth and stable for repainting. The freshly plastered walls were sealed and primed to prevent uneven absorption.

A Light, Durable Finish
Using high-quality, moisture-resistant paint, we created a clean, bright look that holds up well in a busy kitchen environment. The result is a fresh, airy space that complements the character of the home while standing up to everyday use.
