How we work

We apply a thick levelling filler over the textured ceiling and let it partially dry. We sand it down with an orbital sander until the surface is completely smooth. We apply a sealing primer and two coats of emulsion paint. The dust generated during sanding is considerable. We cover the entire room with plastic sheeting before starting and vacuum carefully when finished. A standard 15 m² room, skimmed and painted, takes 2-3 days of work. One of the most frequent calls we receive in autumn-winter are from homeowners who haven't painted their house in eight or ten years. They've noticed the walls are no longer white, but a difficult-to-define yellowish-grey. Mediterranean light is unforgiving on walls. Cheap white paints yellow due to slow oxidation, especially in rooms with direct sun or near the kitchen where airborne grease and steam reach. Furniture marks, the patina of time, and small scuffs on corners are cumulative.
