Hello everyone,
In our apartment (newly built), we had some walls painted in color.
As you can see in the photos, the walls were not painted all the way up to the ceiling. There are clearly visible uneven edges in some spots more than others.
Do I have to accept this, or is it considered a defect?
Thank you very much for your help!
Best regards,
Jegor

I’m getting annoyed about this too.
Someone posted photos of a wall-to-ceiling transition that they weren’t completely happy with, done by the painter. However, the issue is more due to the plaster than the paint. As a solution, I recommended a so-called “fix strip.” In our case, it’s made of Styrofoam, painted, and inexpensive. Here is a picture.
Comments included: “1980s style, Styrofoam? Yuck, snobby attitude.” “Well, it’s definitely not Bauhaus,” with a dismissive tone. But no better suggestions on how to conceal the transition, unless the painter should have done things differently—if only, if only—no constructive alternatives were offered.
To clarify again: this non-Bauhaus 1980s Styrofoam solution was fully earned and paid for by us, without any inheritance. We built it because we couldn’t afford to rely on our parents. It’s not some 30-year mortgage story, nor does the bank own any part of it—it belongs entirely to us.

It would be helpful not to dismiss different statements from various users all at once.
Otherwise, one should also accept that there are things others do not like, instead of acting bratty.
Getting offensive on top of that is just childish.
You interpret "yuck, stuck-up," but what was actually sent was "I don't like it." Just think about that for a moment.

I get a completely different impression.
But now I understand how I’m supposed to interpret that. guckuck2 schrieb:
