Home Decor: Quality Paints


Decorative Paints (Specific Finishes)

Tinted Paints - Mixed to Order (Designer Paint Colours)

We can find the most beautiful shades of paint colours with the assistance of strategic partners at specialist colour labs.

If you would like to paint a room (e.g., walls, ceilings), woodwork (e.g., doors, windows, trim), or metal (e.g., gates, railings) with a tinted paint that resembles your favourite colour or a colour inspired by nature, earthy materials, a region of the world, a design style, textiles, or to capture a mood, we can help. We create paint colours to suit your individual taste. We get your preferred paint colours mixed to order in a specific finish (e.g., matt, soft sheen, eggshell, satin, gloss) at Albany Navan.

Please Note: As tinted paints are custom mixed and made to order, we are unable to accept returns, offer exchanges, or give refunds on bespoke goods (i.e., paint products made to a customer's specifications; to meet their individual requirements).


Trade Paints vs. Retail Paints

Buy and use, affordably priced trade paints for optimal quality, performance, and value.

Not all paints are created equal. Trade paints are superior to retail paints in terms of their product formulations (e.g., raw materials and specialist ingredients) and overall performance (e.g., opacity, durability, and colour retention) and are worth paying extra for. Trade paints contain better quality and greater quantities of pigment (e.g., titanium dioxide) and protective ingredients than retail paints. Trade paints are also tested and approved to a higher standard than their retail counterparts.


Authentic Paint Colours

Get [designer] paint colours matched through the paint brand's official tinting system.

Paint manufacturers use different tint bases and colourants [with proprietary ingredients] than their market competitors. To capture the true essence of a specific paint colour, base paints must be tinted to a perfect colour match through the paint brand's tinting system. Speciality paint manufacturers produce premium paints that contain better resins (binders), higher quality and/or greater quantities of pigments, and synergistic colourants that set their paints and colours apart from others.
