    I had my whole ceiling painted, then one area bubbling and the plasterer patched up. Unfortunately the painter refuse to do touch up, and refused to tell me what color is the paint. I tried to get color matched from bunning but they aren't 100% the same, I can see the patch up mark. Is there anyway to get the same color without painting the whole ceilling again?

    If the ceiling is white then you will struggle as there are many types of ceiling white. If it is a colour then you shoul dbe able to have it colour matched. Did they give you the right sheen when they "matched" it for you?

    it's not exactly white, it's cream color, i was told it's flat ceiling paint, probably will try another shop rather than bunning then.

    If they have over painted say a light fitting you could get an electrician to remove it and you could take it to the paint shop and get a colour match.
