Tired woodwork drags a whole room down. Skirting boards that have yellowed, doors chipped around the handle, architraves gone dull and window boards marked up — it's often the woodwork rather than the walls that's making a room look dated.
Glossing and satin work is the fussiest part of decorating and the part where shortcuts show most. Everything needs washing down, sanding back, filling where it's chipped and priming any bare timber before the topcoat goes on. Rushed woodwork ends up with runs, brush marks and bits of dust set into the finish, so it's worth taking the time to do it properly.
One Newark customer had the woodwork refreshed and glossed through their living room and the hall, stairs and landing — done in no time, with no splashes or damage to the floors and carpets. That's the standard the work aims at every time.
Woodwork can be done on its own or as part of a full room repaint.
