Build-up around hinges and moulding detail requires careful stripping and sanding to restore clean lines before priming and repainting. Door painting sits within our exterior painting service for external doors and as part of full interior painting programmes where internal doors are included.

Door Painting Services
Interior Flush Doors
Flush doors in modern properties are smooth, uniform surfaces that accept paint readily. The existing finish is assessed and sanded back if necessary.
Flush doors in good condition need minimal prep. Multiple coats of older paint may require stripping for a clean finish.
Panelled Doors
Panelled timber doors have raised or recessed detail that requires careful brushwork. Panel junctions are hand-cut and appropriate brush sizes used for corners.
Original period panelled doors often have paint build-up in corners and panel junctions. Careful stripping restores the original profile.
Door Frames and Architrave
Door frames and architrave surrounding the door receive the same care as the door surface. Frame, architrave, and door are painted as a coordinated unit.
Hand-cutting at wall junctions is critical for a finished appearance.
Fire Doors
Fire doors require specialist handling due to intumescent paint specifications. The existing finish is assessed and fire-rated paint is specified if replacement is needed.
Fire door painting is regulated. Specifications are confirmed at the site visit.
Wardrobe Doors
Built-in wardrobe doors are painted to match the room walls or as a coordinating feature. Bi-fold and sliding doors require careful masking and finishing.
Multiple wardrobe doors benefit from colour matching and consistent finish across all doors.
Here’s How It Works
1. Door and frame assessment
All doors are visited and assessed, with existing finish, paint build-up, and any damage noted. Colour preferences and finish options are discussed.
2. Surface preparation
Doors are cleaned and sanded. Heavy paint build-up may require stripping. Frames and architrave are sanded to dull the surface.
3. Priming
Bare timber receives a timber primer. Existing painted surfaces receive a primer-undercoat. This seals and binds.
4. Paint application
Two finish coats are standard. Panelled doors receive hand-brushing for finish quality. Frame and architrave are cut-in carefully at wall junctions.
5. Final inspection and rehanging
Doors are checked for finish quality. Hardware is reinstalled. Colour and finish are confirmed before closing the job.

Cost Overview
Door painting typically costs between £120 and £200 per door, including prep, priming, and two finish coats.
Cost Overview
Three things drive the price:
What Affects the Price
- Door type and detail. Flush doors cost less than panelled doors. Panelled doors with moulded detail cost more due to brushwork requirements.
- Paint build-up and condition. Heavy paint build-up requires stripping, which adds cost. Clean, well-maintained doors require less prep.
- Finish specification. Standard gloss is the baseline. Satin and eggshell finishes cost slightly more. Heritage paint systems cost more per litre.

- Multiple doors (3+ doors, whole-house coordination): £140 to £200 per door with economies of scale.
