Decorative Paint Finishes in Vancouver: Lime Wash, Faux Finish & Microcement

Standard paint gives you colour. Decorative finishes give you texture, depth, and character. We apply lime wash, faux finishes, and microcement for homeowners and designers across Metro Vancouver who want walls that look like they belong in a magazine.

Lime wash

Lime wash is a crushed-limestone-based finish with a soft, cloudy, mottled look — no two walls come out the same. It works beautifully on:

• Accent walls in bedrooms and living rooms
• Fireplace surrounds
• Restaurants, cafes, and boutique commercial spaces

The finish is matte, natural, and full of movement. It’s one of the most requested decorative treatments right now.

Faux finish

Faux finishes use layered paint techniques to imitate stone, concrete, suede, metallic, and other materials — at a fraction of the cost of the real thing. Ideal for feature walls, columns, and commercial interiors that need a high-end look without a renovation budget.

Microcement

Microcement is a thin, seamless cement coating applied over walls, floors, and even bathrooms. The result is a continuous modern surface with no grout lines — popular in:

• Bathrooms and wet areas (sealed and waterproof)
• Kitchen walls and islands
• Commercial lobbies and retail spaces

How it works

1. Consultation — we look at your space, lighting, and the look you want.
2. Samples — we prepare sample boards so you see the exact finish before we start.
3. Application — multi-layer application by experienced finishers, then sealing where needed.

Decorative finishes are craftsmanship, not just painting — the applicator matters as much as the product. We work with premium materials including Portola Paints.
