Faux & Specialty Finishes

What this involves.

Faux and specialty finishes turn a plain wall into something with depth, and they reward patience and a steady hand, because the technique has to stay consistent across the whole surface. We prep and base-coat the wall, then build up the finish in layers, keeping the color, texture, and pattern even from corner to corner. From soft color washes and ragged or troweled textures to subtle metallic and pearl effects, we work a sample first so you can see the look before we commit the room. The result is a finish that feels custom and reads evenly across every wall.

• Reviewing the look you want and preparing a sample to approve
• Patching, sanding, and base-coating the walls for an even ground
• Color washes, glazes, and layered tonal effects
• Ragged, troweled, and other textured finishes
• Subtle metallic, pearl, and accent treatments where wanted
• Keeping color, texture, and pattern consistent across the surface
• Careful masking, cleanup, and a final check under room lighting
