Italian Decorative Paint in Bahçeşehir Phase 1

Italian Decorative Paint in Bahçeşehir Phase 1

Unlike ordinary emulsion, Italian decorative paint gives a wall texture rather than just colour. As the light turns through the day the surface changes with it, which is why the effect is so clear in the daylight-filled flats of Phase 1. Erdağ Yapı Dekorasyon applies Marmorino, travertino, marble and concrete effect finishes in this area, worked by hand with a trowel.

On an Older Wall, Preparation Is a Stage in Itself

Decorative plaster does not hide flaws in a surface; under raking light it shows them up. On the repeatedly painted walls of Phase 1 we often find brush marks, old patch repairs and undulation. So we treat preparation as a separate stage: removing loose layers, filling and levelling, sanding and the right primer. Where preparation is skipped, the result is a fault in the wall beneath, not in the product.

Breathable Systems and Damp

Lime-based Italian plasters breathe; because they let moisture inside the wall escape, they suit damp-prone surfaces better than plastic emulsion. That does not mean they solve the source of the damp. In garden-level flats, or where there is a damp mark on an external wall, we find the cause first, carry out waterproofing or repair where needed, and only then apply the decorative finish.

Choose the Colour on the Wall, Not from a Catalogue

In decorative paint the same colour looks completely different with another trowel technique; sheen level and the direction of the texture change the result directly. That is why we work up a sample on the actual wall before the decision. Once you have seen it in morning, midday and evening light and approved it, we go ahead. A single accent wall in the living room, the area behind the television and the entrance hall are the usual choices; one wall rather than the whole room looks balanced and protects the budget.

Timing and How We Work

Decorative plaster is a layered application and each coat has to dry, so it takes longer than ordinary paint. We give the exact schedule in the written quote once we have seen the condition of the surface. Throughout the work we cover floors and furniture, keep to the estate's hours and remove rubble and packaging the same day.

Let us see the wall, choose the sample together and give you the price in writing; the survey is free. See also our Bahçeşehir Italian paint and Italian paint systems pages.
