Project Showcase: Trinity Area Painting Project, Edinburgh
Project Overview
We recently completed a challenging and rewarding painting project in the Trinity area of Edinburgh. This project showcased our ability to handle complex wall painting and deliver high-quality results, even in difficult circumstances.
The Challenge
- The room we worked on had recently undergone electrical upgrades, which left the walls in a less-than-ideal state:
- Numerous holes from drilling and chiselling
- Uneven surfaces requiring extensive repair
- Customer’s choice of a dark blue paint, known for its difficulty in application
Our Approach
Wall Preparation
- Filled all gaps and holes in the wall
- Smoothed the entire wall surface to ensure a perfect finish
- Repaired and painted the wall behind the removed radiator
Painting Process
- Applied white paint to the ceiling for a fresh, clean look
- Carefully painted the walls in the chosen dark blue colour
Paid extra attention to cutting in, ensuring consistent paint thickness
Matched brushed and rolled paint thickness to avoid patchiness - Painted the skirting boards white for a crisp, contrasting finish
- Overcoming Challenges
The dark blue colour chosen by the customer presented a significant challenge. Dark colours are notoriously difficult to apply evenly, as they tend to show imperfections more readily. Our team’s expertise in handling such challenging colors was crucial in achieving a flawless finish.
Attention to Detail
Our commitment to quality was evident in every aspect of the project:
-
Careful preparation of all surfaces
-
Meticulous application of paint, especially in tricky areas
-
Covering of fixtures and floor
Result
The final result was a beautifully renovated room that exceeded the customer’s expectations. The dark blue walls provided a striking, modern look, while the white ceiling and skirting boards offered a perfect contrast, enhancing the room’s overall aesthetic.
Conclusion
This project in Trinity, Edinburgh, exemplifies our ability to tackle more complex tasks and deliver superior results. From repairing extensive wall damage to masterfully applying challenging paint colors, our team demonstrated skill, attention to detail, and commitment to customer satisfaction.
