Canterbury’s Hallway Painting Specialists
Period Hallways with Joinery
Dado rails divide the wall into two zones. Skirting boards are deep and profiled. All joinery needs correct preparation before paint goes on.
Your decorator covers the full hallway repaint including all features.
High Walls and Staircase Wells
Canterbury hallways can have ceiling heights of 2.8 to 3.6 metres. See our staircase painting page for the full staircase service.
Lime Plaster Walls
Hallway walls in Canterbury’s period properties are frequently lime plaster on timber lath. A breathable primer is used before any topcoat.
Colour Choices
Dado rail schemes are popular in Georgian and Victorian hallways. For accent walls, see our feature wall painting page.
