What this work involves
Clarify whether walls will be painted, papered or decoratively finished. Substrate, cracks and grazing light affect the result. Coordinate installations, drying and subsequent work.
- Substrate assessment
- Required finish level
- Corners and reveals
- Drying and sequencing
- Protection and cleaning
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Review reflections and colour surfaces beside large windows when selecting finishes.
What the drawing needs to explain
Draw sightlines from two seats and show shading positions. Review the same layout in daylight and with interior lights on; privacy works differently in those situations.
How to review the result
Check the view at seated height and operate all opening elements. Review whether shading and lighting provide the intended shelter without obstructing everyday circulation.
Cost factors for this service
Area, substrate, thickness and detail work influence the price.
Bring this to the discussion
Wall and ceiling photographs, areas and intended finish.
