Trinity Area Room Repaint – Edinburgh

Trinity sits in Edinburgh’s north side, just a short walk from Victoria Park and within easy reach of Newhaven Harbour. It’s a leafy, residential part of the city, known for its mix of elegant period villas and modern homes. Our client’s property is tucked in a quiet street near Craighall Road, giving it easy access to both the coast and the city centre.

After some recent electrical upgrades, the room was left with walls full of holes and uneven patches. The client wanted to go bold with a deep blue wall colour—beautiful when done right, but unforgiving if the prep isn’t perfect. We set to work repairing every surface and applying the colour with precision, leaving the room with a smooth, striking finish that really shows off the shade.

The Challenges

Numerous holes and gouges from electrical work
Uneven wall surfaces needing full preparation
A deep, dark blue wall colour—one of the trickier paints to apply evenly

Our Approach

Wall Repairs & Prep
We filled and smoothed every imperfection, including the area behind the removed radiator, to create a clean base for painting.

Precision Painting

The ceiling was painted white to keep the space bright
Walls were hand-painted in the client’s chosen dark blue
Skirtings were finished in crisp white for contrast
We carefully matched roller and brushwork to avoid patchiness—especially important with deep colours

Clean, Crisp Finish
Dark colours tend to highlight flaws, but thanks to thorough prep and controlled application, we achieved a smooth, even finish throughout. Fixtures and floors were fully protected at every step.

Striking Results
The bold blue walls brought a modern edge to the room, while the white trim and ceiling balanced the space beautifully. The client was thrilled with the transformation.
