Very helpful company and great price.

Very helpful lady helped me to buy my paint off the website. Price was very reasonable and delivery by Fedex was one day late but that was ok. Will buy from them again.

very lovely staff and always helpful
but getting rid of the coffee machine is a bad move as me and most of the other employees come in and buy something to get a hot drink was always something to look forward to but this will definitely impact your sales

From heart wood to purple

I bought this bathroom heart wood color, which is supposed to be light brown, but guess what? It turned out purple!

Hi Shima,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the paint colour didn’t meet your expectations.

It’s worth noting that colours displayed on screens can sometimes differ from how they appear in real life, as this can depend on individual screen settings, resolutions, and lighting conditions. For this reason, we always recommend trying a tester pot before committing to painting larger areas, as this allows you to see how the colour interacts with your specific lighting and surroundings.

Additionally, several factors can influence how a paint colour looks once applied, including the lighting in the room (natural and artificial), the colour and type of undercoat used, the material of the wall, and even the decor or furnishings in the space.

Dulux describes the colour Heart Wood as "A beautiful heathery blush colour inspired by nature’s pink tones in sunsets and reclaimed timber. This warm, neutral shade is incredibly versatile, appearing more mauve when paired with pink tones and more mushroom-like in other settings."

We hope this explanation helps, and if you have any further questions or need assistance, please feel free to get in touch.
