Canterbury’s Feature Wall Specialists

Chimney Breast Feature Walls

The chimney breast is the most natural feature wall in a Victorian or Georgian Canterbury property. Deep navy, forest green, charcoal, or period terracotta are popular choices.

Canterbury Decorators work in the correct sequence: full room preparation first, feature wall colour second.

Dark and Bold Accent Walls

Dark colours amplify every surface imperfection. Canterbury Decorators fill and sand more thoroughly on walls receiving a dark feature colour.

Our living room painting page covers the full room.

Bedroom and Dining Room

Feature walls work well in bedrooms behind the bed and in dining rooms on the chimney breast.

Listed Buildings

Interior paint colours in listed buildings are generally not subject to consent. We advise on period-appropriate choices as part of the site visit.

Our Feature Wall Painting Process

1. Site Visit

We view the wall, discuss colour and finish, and advise on preparation.

2. Surface Preparation

The feature wall is filled and sanded more thoroughly than a standard repaint.

3. Priming

Lime plaster walls receive a breathable primer. New plaster gets a sealing coat.

4. Masking

Adjacent walls, skirting boards, and ceiling masked cleanly.

5. Colour Application

Feature wall colour applied in two coats for full coverage.

6. Surrounding Walls

Rest of the room painted. Lines checked when dry.

7. Final Inspection

We inspect the finished room in good light.
