Frequently asked questions
What is a typical wall size?
10 x 9 ft is common - about 90 sq ft, so a designer accent wall starts around ₹2,700.
Why do accent walls cost more per sq ft?
Small jobs carry setup cost, and designer shades need extra coats for depth.
Can painters match my existing shade?
Yes - computer colour matching from a photo or a chip of the existing paint gets very close.
