Interior Painting
Mellor Brook has both old and new homes. Each type needs different painting approaches. Let's look at the most common projects we handle.
Living Rooms
Many living rooms have exposed beams and traditional plasterwork. We take special care with these features. Accent walls are popular, especially in newer homes with open layouts. We help preserve the room's character while giving it a fresh look.
Kitchens
Each kitchen type needs specific care. Older cottages need moisture-resistant paints to handle Lancashire's humidity. Modern homes often want their cabinets refinished for an updated look. We ensure good airflow during painting, which is vital in traditional Mellor Brook kitchens.
Bedrooms
We often work around period features like decorative moldings and old fireplaces. Our techniques preserve these historic elements while updating the room. We use special finishes that work well in both old and new homes.
