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. We also offer dedicated radiator painting services.

Canterbury Decorators cover 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. We use a breathable primer before any topcoat.

Colour Choices

Dado rail schemes are popular in Georgian and Victorian hallways. For accent walls, see our feature wall painting page.
