Limewash Effect

What to Expect

Limewash walls offer a soft, chalky, breathable finish with subtle tonal movement that reacts beautifully to light. This is one of the most popular textured wall finishes for period homes, contemporary interiors, and renovation projects across the UK.

What’s involved

  • Surface preparation and priming

  • Multiple thin coats applied by brush

  • Hand layered to create natural variation

  • Finished with gentle movement and depth

The finish

Limewash creates an organic, matte surface with natural colour variation. It feels warm, calm, and timeless, making it ideal for living spaces, bedrooms, hallways, and feature walls. No two walls are ever identical.
