Commercial Spaces: Our expertise extends to commercial establishments such as wellness centers, spas, beauty clinics, restaurants, and cafes. A professionally applied limewash finish can create a serene and luxurious environment, enhancing the experience for your clients and customers.

Combination Finishes: Stay ahead of design trends by combining limewash with other finishes like microcement or Venetian plaster.

Why Hire a Professional Limewash Contractor?

While limewash is a natural product, the application is a specialized craft. Achieving a consistent, mottled texture without visible “lap marks” (dark lines where sections meet) requires a wet-on-wet technique and an understanding of substrate porosity.

  • Expert Color Consultation: We help you choose the right mineral pigments that react beautifully to Toronto’s shifting northern light.
  • Complex Substrates: We specialize in applying limewash over challenging surfaces, including previously painted drywall, brick fireplaces, and plaster.
  • Commercial Expertise: We provide high-durability mineral finishes for Toronto’s wellness centers, spas, and luxury retail boutiques.

Why Choose Limewash for your residential and commercial project?

  • Durability: Limewash paint is highly breathable and resistant to mildew, making it perfect for areas where moisture can be an issue.
  • Textured Finish: Limewash paint provides a soft, matte finish with subtle variations in color, giving your walls a unique, organic appearance.
  • Natural and Eco-Friendly: Made from limestone, limewash paint is a natural, non-toxic paint that is free of harmful chemicals, making it a healthy choice for your home.
  • Customizable Colors and Textures: Limewash paint can be tinted in a range of colors, allowing you to achieve the exact look you desire, whether it’s a soft, muted tone or a rich, deep hue.
  • Low Maintenance: Once applied, limewash requires minimal upkeep, as it ages gracefully and develops a beautiful patina over time.
  • Versatility: Limewash finish is suitable for both interior and exterior applications, making it an ideal choice for walls, ceilings, fireplaces, and even brick and stone exteriors.

Our Reviews

Chromatist Painters, led by Shayan, exceeded my expectations with their exceptional work on painting my entire house. They went above and beyond, showcasing their talent and attention to detail. Shayan’s guidance throughout the process was invaluable, ensuring that every corner was flawlessly painted. The team’s commitment to excellence and their dedication to customer satisfaction were evident in the outstanding results. I highly recommend Chromatist Painters for their extraordinary service and commend Shayan for his invaluable assistance.

Homestars

We engaged Chromatist to paint our 100 year old home in mid-town Toronto this spring. There were a number of issues that made this job a little unique. We had just gotten our knob-and-tube wiring replaced so there were a lot of holes that had been recently roughly plastered over.
Also, there was a large hole in the lathe-and-plaster ceiling of our dining room from a plumbing leak. Finally, our hallway was finished with faux
painting that simulated marble and brick with some trompe-l’oele of leaves in a vase that we wished to preserve rather than paint over.

Shayan and his team were a pleasure to work with and did a great job on this challenging project. Every day the painters were very considerate and minimized disruption such that we were able to continue to work from home during the whole process.

We especially appreciate the work on the faux painting in the hall, where Shayan had someone come in to analyze color matches and then hand painted and blended the colors so as to seamlessly hide the cracks and plaster that was there before. It looks better now than it did when we bought our house (a long time ago!).

Thanks Shayan and team. We are definitely interested in working with you again.

Shayan and his team were awesome!

Totally professional, trustworthy and got our job done very quickly ! They worked around our family of 5 while painting our whole house. They also worked well around the other tradespeople we had coming and going. Most importantly, the painting looked fantastic.

I highly recommend Chromatist painters!

Lisa, HomeStars

I normally don’t like dealing with contractors, except for those few who truly understand the value of customer service. And Shayan and his team are the best! On time. On budget. Excellent job. Friendly. And Shayan knows that superior customer service is the key to happy customers. I highly recommend Shayan and Chromatist for any painting needs, you will be so happy you did
