Why Lacquer

Deep colour, polished to glow

Lacquer gives a wall a deep, glassy reflection that holds colour like nothing else, glowing in candle and lamp light.

In a dining room, a library or an intimate bar, it brings instant glamour and a sense of occasion. Each project is applied by our own team and finished to the standard your address deserves.

Cloakrooms, studies and snugs

Honest Advice

Lacquer, plaster or both

I
Flat Walls Only

Every bump and crack shows through gloss, so walls are filled and made very flat first.

II
Colour Reads Deeper

Gloss reads deeper and more saturated than matt, so we always make a sample.

III
More Movement

If you want depth and soft variation, polished Venetian plaster gives a stone like sheen.

IV
Both Together

Some rooms use lacquered joinery or ceilings with plastered walls.

Questions & Answers

More questions, answered

Do you survey the wall before quoting for lacquered walls?
Yes. We survey before pricing, looking at the substrate, flatness, cracks, damp, movement, how the room is used, access and protection. Small questions can often be answered from photos first. Flatness matters most with gloss. We say plainly if a wall needs skimming, stripping or a damp problem fixing first.
Who installs lacquered walls near me?
Our own team applies and polishes every project. They travel from our Birmingham base to homes and businesses across the UK. Call 07592 929191, Monday to Saturday, 9am to 6pm, or send photos, rough measurements and your postcode through our contact page.
Do you install lacquered walls across the whole of the UK?
Yes, our own team travels from Birmingham to jobs anywhere in the UK. On jobs further away the work is planned in blocks of days, so the team stays on site and works through each stage in order rather than travelling back and forth. See every area we cover.
How long does lacquer installation take?
It depends on the size of the room, the condition of the walls and the colour, so the timescale is set out after the survey. Dates are agreed once the design and price are signed off. Ask us when you call and we will explain how your project would be planned.
Why do lacquered walls need to be so flat?
Every bump and crack shows through gloss, so walls are filled and made very flat before lacquer goes on. Polished finishes show every dip. Our survey checks flatness, cracks and movement first. Read our lacquered walls guide.
Will lacquer look deeper than the colour I chose from a chart?
Gloss reads deeper and more saturated than matt, so a colour from a chart can look richer on the wall. That is why we always make a sample for your approval before work starts. See our colours for a starting point.
Which colours work best for lacquer?
Deep colours such as oxblood, bottle green, inky blue or black glow in candle and lamp light. Pale lacquers bring a soft glow to small or dark rooms. We make a sample so you can judge the colour before committing.
Can ceilings be lacquered?
Yes, we lacquer ceilings as well as walls. Ceilings, like walls, need to be filled and made very flat first because gloss shows every imperfection. We assess the ceiling at the survey and tell you plainly what it needs.
Should I choose lacquer or polished Venetian plaster?
Choose lacquer for a deep, glassy reflection, and polished Venetian plaster if you want depth with soft variation and a stone like sheen. Some rooms use both. See polished plaster to compare.
Can lacquer be combined with gilding, cornice or other plaster?
Yes. A high gloss wall pairs well with gilding, cornice and polished metal, and some rooms use lacquered joinery or ceilings with plastered walls. Ask us how a combination would work. See gilding.
Will lacquer make a small room feel smaller?
No, a reflective wall makes a small room feel bigger and brighter. Cloakrooms, studies and snugs suit it well, and pale lacquers bring a soft glow to small or dark rooms. We advise on each space at the survey.
Is lacquer suitable for restaurants, bars and hotels?
Yes. A high gloss wall gives restaurants, bars, boutiques and hotel suites instant glamour. We plan the work around your programme, including fit outs ahead of opening. See our page for designers and architects.
How do I look after lacquered walls?
Our team hands over a finish ready to enjoy and can tell you how to care for it. Ask us at handover what suits your finish. Call 07592 929191 with any questions afterwards.
