Wall Painting in Newport

The most common request — one or two rooms refreshed. Living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, hallways. We prepare surfaces properly, apply a mist coat where needed, and complete two finish coats in the agreed colour.

For specific rooms, see our living room painting, bedroom painting, bathroom painting, hallway painting, and dining room painting pages.

Full interior redecorations are priced by room and total area. We work through the property systematically — ceilings first, then walls, then woodwork — leaving each room complete before moving to the next. This is the most efficient approach for families living in the property throughout.

Feature walls and accent walls are part of our standard offer. A single wall in a deeper colour, a limewash finish, or a contrasting tone behind a bed or fireplace adds depth without committing the full space to a colour that may feel too strong on all four walls.

For more detail, see our feature wall painting page.

Victorian terraces in Maindee, Baneswell, and Stow Hill have solid-wall construction with lime plaster. Standard modern emulsions applied over lime plaster can trap moisture and cause the plaster to degrade.

We use breathable primers on lime plaster walls and select finish products appropriate for the substrate. We advise on this at quote stage and can identify lime plaster versus modern plaster at the assessment visit.

New plasterboard in extensions and loft conversions, and freshly skimmed walls after repairs, need a mist coat or specialist new-plaster primer before any finish is applied. Without this, the finish absorbs unevenly and the result is patchy.

We carry out new-surface preparation as standard on every job involving fresh plaster or new board. This is covered in more detail on our plasterboard painting page.
