What flooring for hallway with this carpet on stairs?
Comments (16)Carrie - thank you so much for that comment. I really appreciate you resting out the temperature of your own floor for me! And for getting the noise thing, hate anything that is going to cause a racket! But I think between you and the other Houzzers on this discussion, I have had some myths busted about tiled floors. Only my own myths though I think! Thank you for the tips about the underneath of the floor too. That will really help. Thanks, I love the hallway and have been living with it as a mess for so long, it will be so nice to finally decorate it - I will try to dig out a before picture as have now had it plastered and rewired and mist coat of paint has gone on. Lots of woodwork to do now, door trims and skirting to go on and bannister to sand, then the tonne of final paint and can get to flooring after that. But we’ll get there! Thank you all so much for your kind help!...See MoreWhat colour to paint the hallway and stairs?
Comments (8)Hi, congrats on your new home! Very exciting. This space appears to be either north facing or just not an area with a lot of warm light...I have been helping quite a few clients with this dilemma lately and here are a few tips for you. North facing/lowlight rooms can be difficult to decorate as the natural light coming through will have blue/grayish undertones. This could make some paint colours look dingy or too cold (which I think is happening now). Warm grey works well in north facing/low-light rooms and here are a couple color combos from Dulux which you can get at B&Q. Just make sure the undertones are warm (not blue or grey). Dulux also has a ‘Light and Space’ paint finish that is supposed to reflect light in the room. https://www.dulux.co.uk/en/products/dulux-light-space-matt. And just an FYI - Desenio.co.uk is a great online place to look for quality/inexpensive prints if you would like to add some art up the stair hallway area. Good luck and congrats on a new home!

Comments (9)The bottom 2 that are painted Are NOT mine...., the others all are. It’s a big old Edwardian house/ front door/ side door / also upstairs door out to balcony.... and stained glass window on landing.. Quite a project hence I want to get colours correct. (There are 16 doors over 3 floors- 98 spindles in staircase) Quotes for getting painted are over £3k.....See MorePaint colour suggestions for hallway, stairs and landing
Comments (28)Hiya, we have a Victorian hallway and it is done very similar to Rukmini’s first image. We have a greeny grey under the dado (including the skirting and dado itself) and on the doors and architraves. It’s Blanket by Paint & Paper library which is a little darker than Rukmini’s pic. Then an off white above the dado and on the ceiling. It used to be off white all over and the grey definitely has made it darker. On the other hand it also feels smarter and shows the marks less! Swings and roundabouts. I wouldn’t have three colours, I would pick one colour plus off white above the dado/picture rail (Pointing seems sensible!!) Your tiles look browny grey so would suggest looking at Ammonite by F&B and its family of colours - (Cornforth White, Purbeck Stone). See below for the F&B families of greys. If you want bluey or greeny greys then Paint & Paper Library are a good source but be careful to see if they will go with your tiles....See More
