Our Painting Process
Free Home Visit
We look at your staircase and discuss colors. You get a detailed written quote with no surprises. We show paint samples in your actual lighting so you see exactly how they’ll look.
Surface Preparation
We clean, sand, and prime everything properly. Handrails get extra attention since people touch them constantly. We fill dents and scratches, then smooth everything out.
Protection Setup
Dust sheets cover your carpets, walls, and furniture. We create safe routes so you can still get upstairs during the work.
Professional Application
We apply multiple thin coats with quality brushes. Each coat dries fully before the next. Clean lines where colors meet.
Final Check
We inspect every spindle and handrail with you. Then we remove all coverings, clean up completely, and share care tips.

Staircase Types We Paint
Victorian Spindle Staircases
These decorative turned spindles are everywhere in Cathays and Roath. We hand-paint each one carefully with quality satinwood. Classic combinations work beautifully: cream spindles with dark green or burgundy handrails.
Edwardian Plain Spindles
Canton and Pontcanna homes often have these simpler square spindles. They suit modern updates—whites, greys, or soft blues. We use tough eggshell paint that lasts. Popular handrail colors include charcoal and deep blue.
Georgian String Staircases
Older Cardiff properties show off the side boards as features. We paint them in period colors: pale green, warm grey, or heritage off-white. Traditional brush techniques create the smooth finish these elegant staircases deserve.
Modern Glass Panel Staircases
New Cardiff developments combine painted handrails with glass panels. We focus on perfect edges and contemporary colors: matt black, brushed metallics, or bold statement shades.
We also handle hallway painting to ensure your staircase blends perfectly with your entrance. For comprehensive transformations, our full interior painting service covers every room in your home.
