The kind of properties we decorate in Congleton
Congleton is a real mix. There are Victorian and Edwardian terraces around West Street and Rood Hill with deep skirtings, picture rails and plenty of old paint build-up that needs sanding back before anything new goes on. There are 1930s semis and post-war estates where woodwork has usually been overpainted several times. And there are newer estates towards Congleton Edge and the link road where the finish is thin builder's emulsion that marks the moment you touch it.
Each of those needs a different approach. Older homes need patient filling, caulking and sanding. Newer homes usually need a proper mist coat strategy and a hard-wearing washable finish so the walls survive family life.
