Portland

The famous building stone, without which much of central London would lose its magnificence, gives its name to our off-white. Made only with earth and ore it is literally a first cousin to the true stone. Our colours are inspired by the world around us and our formula is made from our nature. This is a grown up neutral or can be used to offset deeper colours.

I would just like to say how pleased we are with both the Tingry and Portland paint over here in France. It has worked beautifully on the old walls!

Not Sure? Ask The Team

It sounds silly, but it’s difficult to find a great white, just because the choice is endless, but for us Silver White, with its touch of grey is extremely versatile.

Bruce MacArthur, Head of Visual Merchandising OKA

We discovered Edward Bulmer Paints over a decade ago and we love the range of colours.  Jonquil is the latest colour to grace our home, and it looks absolutely beautiful in a high ceilinged bedroom.  We like the paint for its quality and finish and will be returning for more.  French Grey is the latest …

Louise Hobbs

We have used your paint for the first time in our new kitchen and it is absolutely stunning.  One coat has covered really well.  The colour is gorgeous (Granite Green) and the cover is exceptional.  We will never use any other paint again.

How much paint do I need?

We have created this calculator to help you estimate the amount of paint you will need for your project. Please note that this is only an estimate, based on normal surfaces with two coats of paint.

Please check our practical painting advice - if you are painting onto a very absorbent surface, you may need more paint, and for best results, you may need to prime your surfaces.

If you end up with any leftover paint, get inspired with ways to use any excess paint - it's even compostable!

What are you painting?

Estimated
Painted Wall/Ceiling Area

Our natural matt emulsion is perfect for interior walls and ceilings.

0 litres

0 m2

This estimate is based on the dimensions of your room, minus the space taken by average doors and windows.

For this area, we suggest would be adequate.

Estimated
Woodwork Area

Our water based eggshell or gloss is ideal for woodwork or metalwork.

0 litres

0 m2

This estimate is based on skirting and the doors/windows you tell us about. 1 litre should cover 2-3 doors or 20m of skirting.

For this area, we suggest would be adequate.
