From worn walls to a finished living room (illustrative example)

An illustrative walkthrough of a typical living room refresh: surface repair, two-coat emulsion paint, a POP cove ceiling and porcelain floor tiles, planned with FRELUX calculators.

Project scope

Wall preparation and repainting (about 85 m2 of wall area), POP ceiling with cove cornice (about 24 m2), and porcelain floor tiling (about 24 m2).

What made it difficult

Peeling paint and uneven plaster had to be scraped and skimmed before any new coat. Quantities were estimated first so paint, POP and tiles were bought once with sensible waste allowances.

Outcome

A bright, even finish with a clean ceiling line. Estimating quantities up front avoided mid-job shortages and over-ordering.
