Decorative wall finishes in Kenya

Create one approved textured or decorative wall feature.

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional sample order: A four-square-metre decorative textured feature wall with one customer-approved finish, pattern direction and colour, applied by a competent decorator. Produce a separate 0.5-square-metre sample first. This is a decorative finish on sound dry substrate, excluding active damp, structural crack bridging, fire-performance claims and copying a photograph as an exact handmade pattern guarantee.

Who is the first customer?

Cafe owners and homeowners seeking a single focal wall.
