Kitchen Unit Painting York
Kitchen Unit Painting York For this kitchen painting project I headed over to Moor Monkton, York. The kitchen had been hand made a number of years ago by ‘Jeremy Wood’, and the clients were keen to update it and repair a few areas that had been damaged. They wanted their kitchen units to be hand painted in a ‘light – mid’ shade to make it look more contemporary, and give the room a lighter, brighter feel.

I explained about the meticulous preparation I undertake, how I would fill all the...

The clients originally contacted me by phone, and after receiving some photos of the kitchen, I send a detailed estimate by return. I then arranged a consultation, during which we discussed the thorough preparation stages I undertake and the tried and tested...
Read MoreFaux Wood Paint Effect on Handrail
Faux Wood Paint Effect on Handrail This project was another great example of how faux wood graining can be used as a simple, cost-effective solution when compared to the installation of the real material. To have replaced the handrail over all 4 stories with a real oak one would have cost many thousands, caused a lot of mess and disruption, and probably damaged the spindles as well. By opting for faux wood painting, the clients got the new look they wanted without the difficult logistics and hefty price tag. This handrail was actually once mahogany but had been painted and re-painted many...
