The extensive refurbishment of The Mill House, a period country mill house in Wiltshire, has been successfully achieved through the use of a variety of products from Johnstone’s Trade Professional range.
The owner of the property’s exacting brief demanded a paint specification that not only provided a low maintenance finish but that would also help to enhance the building’s many attractive period features. During the challenging project, which saw contractor Mouland Decorating liaising directly with the client, both the ground and first floors of the eight-bedroom period country house, including the hallway and staircase, were redecorated.
Mouland’s extensive scope of work included the use of Johnstone’s Covaplus Vinyl Matt to give the interior walls and ceiling a wipeable finish. Part of Johnstone’s Ecological Solutions range with minimal VOCs, Johnstone’s Covaplus has the added benefit of lessening its impact on the environment. In addition, Johnstone’s Eggshell, which is specially formulated for interior use on wood and metal surfaces, was used to provide a smooth and washable condensation-resistant finish. The team successfully completed the contract in just five weeks, well ahead of the client’s move-in date.
Kevin Mouland from Mouland Decorating commented: "It was essential that our work at the Mill House was completed as quickly as possible and to the highest possible standard. The use of products from Johnstone’s helped us achieve an exceptional finish that is both hardwearing and in keeping with the unique style of the period property.”
Phil Smith, owner of the Mill House said: “When my wife and I bought our dream home last year we were keen to redecorate and move in as quickly as possible. The quality of the finish was important, particularly as with such a large property, we wanted to keep future maintenance to a minimum. I’m delighted with the finish provided by Johnstone’s particularly on the period features of the house and was impressed by the speed at which the project was completed. I have since commissioned Mouland with an equally sized job on a Grade II Listed building on a new retail outlet.”
