Textured Walls

Texture paint is a brilliant way to bring out an extraordinary look in your house. Picking much popularity these days, this type of paint not just covers the drywall but hides bumps, stains and even little holes made by nails. With a variety of designs, this specific type has a heavy consistency, where some paints have grains of sand or gypsum bound by a water-thinned binder. Finally, a rough and sometimes 3D patterned effect is created on the wall.

Hire astute painting and decorating services and they’d help you cover joints in drywall as well as paint it without priming. When pros take over, they’d know the little tricks too, like applying texture over wallpaper if it’s not a very dark shade. Pros always double-check all circumstances including the quality of paint applied over wall before spraying the texture paint.

Textured Roof

A great idea would be to go for knockdown textured paint for the roof of your bedroom, dining room or hallways. Here the expert would spray the paint and the coat would be of about 1/8 inch thick. As soon as the first coat dries, the high points are knocked down with a putty knife or trowel. Being tough and durable, do ponder over where you want this type of textured paint to be.

Another type is where the painter would use a hawk. This is a flat plate with a handle underneath that’s used to create a brilliant textured design. Here, plaster is placed in the center of hawk and along with a trowel, the painter apply plaster on the surface. Both tools work together in fashioning attractive layers of texture rolling over one another.
Apart from this, you have the option of slap brush technique, skip trowel and even sand texture paint which would make that roof look very interesting!

Astonishing New Concepts

Metallic

When homeowners want something bewitching yet sleek, nothing can be compared to a metallic paint. The best part about this concept is that there are a thousand artistic ways to apply it to make a stylish statement. A tip would be to apply it in metallic accents for a more layered and sophisticated look.

Color Wash

Color washing on the other hand, is like an abstract paint technique which adds depth to a space. As its fairly easy to apply, this can be a fun DIY project. Here, first you coat the walls with a satin base paint. Next, you use a large brush to paint over it with a nice glaze.
Many DIY enthusiasts use stencils, the classic harlequin design and even stripes. All these ideas definitely speak volumes and all such techniques look fabulous even if there’s minimal decor. Because the painting task is something you do once every 6 to 7 years, it’s better to go for a trendy look!

In the end, whatever you decide always take support from a certified, smart and experienced painter to have the best outcomes.
