Accent walls in Northeastern CT
One bold wall, done with crisp lines and the right primer so the color reads true.
Where accent walls work
Behind a bed, a fireplace wall, or the wall you see first when you walk in. Usually a wall without a lot of doors and windows.
Getting deep colors right
Dark and saturated colors often need a tinted primer and an extra coat to cover evenly. We plan for that in the quote.
