Accent Wall Painting

Accent wall painting is finishing one wall of a room in a different color from the other three, and Robert Sharp of Sharp's Painting does it for homeowners in Huntington Beach and coastal Orange County. Color comes first, so Robert leaves up to 10 free paint samples on the wall to judge against your furniture in morning and evening light. Prep still matters on one wall. He fills and sands nail holes and dents, spot primes the patches, and caulks the trim seam.

Edges are where accent walls fail, so he cuts clean lines by hand where the new color meets the ceiling, the baseboard, the casing, and the neighboring walls. Tape bleed and a wavy ceiling line show from the doorway. Robert has 27 years in the trade, holds California C-33 license 1048840, is bonded and liability insured, and runs his own crew with no subcontractors. Estimates are free and you pay nothing until the wall is finished and you are happy with it.
