Hall, stairs and landing completed.

The woodwork was in pretty rough condition, with runs, bumps and dents throughout. It was thoroughly sanded, with damaged areas filled and built back up before being sanded smooth to achieve a much better finish.

The fresh plaster was sealed with Valspar Trade Bare Plaster Matt.

Ceilings finished in GoodHome Brilliant White, with the walls finished in GoodHome Tough & Durable – Settling In.

The woodwork was primed with Caparol HaftPrimer and finished in Caparol CapaFlow Satin.

Thorough preparation throughout has made a big difference, leaving the hall, stairs and landing with a much cleaner, smoother finish.
