  I’m from Cambridge but won’t hesitate to drive to Oakville to see Craig and Richard. Craig has given me the best advice when I’m undecided on a colour or completely turned me around and created a wow experience when I’m up for something new and not sure which direction to go. He has never been in my home but through conversation and asking the right questions, knowing the colours I have, he always gives me the best honest advice and I trust him explicitly. I’m finally selling my home and getting ready to stage it with a fresh coat of paint so I’ve emailed him some pics for the first time because it’s a huge job. I’m doing more than one or two rooms. I’ll update later! 😋
  
  
  
  Some people seem to think that’s its expensive but you get what you pay for. The pigment in FnB is incomparable to anything else on the market. I realized this last week when I painted my daughters bedroom white in her new condo which started with a gallon of Behr’s best and 1 gallon didn’t cut it WITH TWO COATS over a soft grey and I ran out of paint! It was also so labour intensive and gummy I was sweating more than I did in Jamaica last month! The roller and brush were too gummy to clean so I pitched them. I went and bought BM Aura cloud white to finish the job since we were in London and I just wanted to get it done and had been happy with the product prior to discovering FnB! Very pleased however I needed the whole gallon and had about an inch left but it was gorgeous. FnB Winterbourne is the equivalent and I know I would have used one coat on the existing white and had half a gallon left over or used almost a gallon on the grey with ZERO flashing and cleaned the tools in a snap, so at the end of the day I would have been ahead financially, physically and been enjoying my Cab Sav much sooner and perhaps even on to the next room. Don’t underestimate the quality of Farrow and Ball paint. After using it you will realize paint is not just paint.

  Wonderful service and paint quality is exceptional. Richard is always helpful when I drop in for material, or just to say hello. This paint is worth the extra to ensure that your homes walls look their best.
