Interior painting
in Limal
Proper preparation, clean paintwork, the job left tidy: walls, ceilings, woodwork and stairwells. We do this in Limal from our base in Walloon Brabant, with a costing visit every time before anything is committed to.
The context in Limal
Why here in particular
An old farming village attached to Wavre, Limal has kept its brick core and surrounded itself with recent housing estates up on the heights. In practice the old outbuildings and garages in the village core are often still covered in pre-1998 fibre cement.
What separates paint that holds from paint that blisters is never the tin. It is the time spent beforehand: filling, sanding, dusting down, primer.
