Feature Wall Painting Services

We offer three proven approaches to create stunning feature walls to decorate your Cardiff home interior.

Accent Wall Painting

Transform any room by painting one wall in a striking colour. Deep navy, forest green, charcoal grey, or rich terracotta create instant drama. They draw the eye to key features like your bed, sofa, or fireplace. We help you select colours that complement your existing décor and lighting.

Wallpaper Feature Walls

Add pattern, texture, and designer appeal with high-quality wallpaper. From bold geometric prints to subtle textured designs, wallpaper creates an instant focal point. Our wallpapering service ensures flawless application with no visible seams for professional results that last.

Textured Paint Finishes

Create depth and visual interest with specialist techniques. Colour washing, sponging, rag rolling, and metallic effects add sophistication. These premium finishes can hide minor wall imperfections while creating a bespoke look that standard paint can’t achieve.

Our Feature Wall Painting Process

1. Free Home Consultation & Quote

We visit your Cardiff property to assess the space and discuss your vision. We recommend the best wall, colours, and techniques. Written quotes provided within 24 hours.

2. Design Planning & Colour Selection

We talk with you about what you’re looking for. We share examples from other projects. We discuss what’s going to suit your space best.

3. Complete Property Protection

Heavy-duty floor coverings, furniture dust sheets, and precision masking tape. Your home stays clean whether we’re painting a feature wall in your bedroom or painting your living room.

4. Thorough Surface Preparation

We fill cracks and sand surfaces smooth. We spot-prime repairs and apply quality primer. For textured techniques, we create the ideal surface texture.

5. Expert Paint Application

Multiple thin coats with proper drying time between applications. This delivers richer colour depth than single thick coats. For metallics or geometric patterns, we use specific methods developed over 20 years.

6. Quality Inspection & Touch-Ups

Final inspection under different lighting. We check for complete coverage, clean edges, and consistent finish.

7. Spotless Cleanup & Care Guidance

Complete cleanup with care instructions specific to your paint type. We leave leftover paint for future touch-ups.

Popular Feature Wall Styles

From bold accent colours to textured finishes, our wall painting creates a focal point to suit your Cardiff home’s style and character.

Bold Accent Colours

Deep navy, forest green, and charcoal grey work beautifully behind period fireplaces in Victorian terraces. These rich tones balance Cardiff’s red brick exteriors. Warm greys and deep blues counteract Pennant sandstone warmth.

Geometric Patterns & Stripes

Modern designs suit Cardiff Bay’s warehouse conversions with high ceilings. Vertical stripes make rooms feel taller in Cardiff terraces with 2.4 metre ceilings. Horizontal patterns widen narrow hallways.

Metallic Finishes

Rose gold, copper, and silver metallics transform darker north-facing rooms. They reflect light beautifully. Perfect for period properties in Whitchurch and Llandaff.

Textured Techniques

Colour washing and sponging add depth in smaller bedrooms. Our expert bedroom painters don’t overwhelm your space. Ideal for Pontcanna’s Victorian homes.

Two-Tone Designs

Darker lower sections with lighter upper sections create airiness. Works well in compact terraced properties.

Feature Wall Painting FAQs

Which wall should I choose as my feature wall?

The wall you notice first when entering. This is typically behind your bed, sofa, or fireplace. In Cardiff Victorian terraces, chimney breasts (usually 0.8-1 metre projection) make excellent feature walls. Avoid walls dominated by large bay windows common in Roath and Cathays. They reduce visual impact. We recommend the most effective wall based on your room layout during the free consultation.

How much does feature wall painting cost in Cardiff?

These are estimates as prices depend on room size, wall condition, and technique complexity. Standard single-colour feature walls in average bedrooms: £150–£300+. Textured effects like colour washing or sponging: £250–£450+. Specialty finishes including metallics or geometric patterns: £300–£600+. Call us for an exact quote based on your specific requirements.

What’s the best feature wall colour for my room?

Dark colours like navy, charcoal, and forest green create drama in well-lit rooms. These work best with south or west-facing windows. Warm tones like terracotta, mustard, and burgundy add cosiness to north-facing spaces. These are common in Cathays and Canton’s densely-packed terraces where neighbouring buildings limit natural light. Cool greys and blues suit modern Cardiff Bay apartments. We bring samples to test in your actual lighting during consultation.

Can you paint feature walls in any room?

Yes. Living rooms and bedrooms are most popular. We also regularly paint feature walls in Cardiff dining rooms, hallways, home offices, and bathrooms. We use moisture-resistant formulations for bathroom painting. We use hard-wearing finishes for high-traffic hallway areas.

How long does feature wall painting take?

Standard single-colour feature walls: one day including preparation and cleanup. Textured finishes: 1-2 days. Complex geometric patterns: 2-3 days depending on design complexity.

Do I need to move my furniture?

No. We move smaller items and protect larger pieces with sheeting. For heavy furniture like wardrobes, we work around them using dust sheets and masking.

Will a feature wall make my small Cardiff terrace room look smaller?

Not when chosen correctly. Dark feature walls create depth and draw the eye to a focal point. Paint the wall furthest from the entrance and keep other walls lighter. This works particularly well in Riverside, Grangetown, and Splott. Victorian terraces there typically have 3×4 metre living rooms.

What’s the difference between an accent wall and a feature wall?

Often used interchangeably. An accent wall uses a different colour. A feature wall might include texture, patterns, or specialty finishes. Both create a focal point.

How do I maintain my painted feature wall?

Use a soft, damp cloth for marks. Avoid harsh chemicals. Textured walls benefit from gentle dusting every few months. Matt finishes hide marks better but need more care when cleaning. Silk finishes wipe clean easily. We provide specific care instructions based on your chosen finish.

Can you match feature wall colours to my existing décor?

Yes. We colour-match to existing furniture, fabrics, or décor items. Bring a sample or photo and we’ll create a complementary palette. We test multiple options in your room’s actual lighting before you commit.

What paint finish works best for feature walls?

Matt finishes create depth and hide minor wall imperfections. They’re perfect for bold colours in older Pontcanna and Llandaff properties. Silk finishes add sheen and clean easily. They’re ideal for high-traffic areas and living room painting projects. We’ll explain metallic and specialty finishes during consultation.

Do your painters have insurance?

Yes, all Primrose Decor painters carry full public liability insurance.
