Worcester’s Hallway Painting Specialists
Victorian Terrace Hallways
Victorian hallway passages in Barbourne are typically 1.2 to 1.5 metres wide and 8 to 12 metres long. The dado rail divides the wall at around 900mm. Dedicated radiator painting services are also available.
Multi-Storey Staircase Hallways
Multi-storey Victorian properties have hallway voids extending up three or four floors. See our staircase painting page for detail.
Dado Rails and Period Features
The dado rail treatment defines the whole hallway palette. Your decorator masks carefully along the dado rail before applying each colour.
Pre-Sale Hallway Refresh
Hallways have a disproportionate effect on sale price perception. See our house painting page if wider work is needed.
