Our Staircase Painting Process

Free Home Visit and Quote
We visit your home to look at your staircase and discuss colours you like. Our written quote covers everything - materials, labour, and how long it takes. No hidden costs. We'll show you paint samples in your own light so you can see exactly how they'll look.
Choosing Your Paint and Colours
We help you pick the right paint and finish for your needs - tough eggshell for family staircases that get lots of use, or smooth satinwood for period features. We only use quality paints that suit your staircase type and how much wear it gets.
Protecting Your Home
Before we start painting, we cover your carpets, walls, and furniture with quality dust sheets and plastic. We set up safe walkways so your family can still get around your home normally while we work.
Preparing the Surfaces
We clean, sand, and prime everything properly, paying extra attention to
handrails and areas that get touched a lot. We fill any dents or scratches
and smooth them out. This preparation is key to making your new paint look
great and last.
Applying the Paint
We use professional brushes and proven techniques to get smooth, even paint
coverage. We apply several thin coats for the best durability, and take
care to get clean, sharp lines where different colours meet.
Final Check and Clean-Up
We do a final quality check with you to make sure every spindle and handrail
meets our high standards. Then we remove all the protective coverings,
clean up completely, and give you tips on caring for your newly painted
staircase.

We Paint All Staircase Types
Victorian Spindle Staircases
Common in Cathays and Roath, these have decorative turned wooden spindles that need careful hand-painting. We use quality satinwood paint in traditional cream, often with dark green or burgundy handrails for the classic Victorian look. We make sure paint flows smoothly into all the spindle grooves.
Edwardian Plain Spindles
Found in Canton and Pontcanna homes, these simpler square spindles work well in whites or modern greys. We use tough eggshell paint that lasts longer, with handrails in deep blue or charcoal for a fresh, updated look that suits the home's character.
Georgian String Staircases
In older Cardiff properties, these show off the side boards (strings) as a
feature. We paint them in soft period colours like pale green, warm grey,
or off-white, using special brush techniques to get the smooth finish these
elegant staircases need.
Modern Glass Panel Staircases
Popular in new Cardiff developments, these have painted handrails with
glass panels. We focus on perfect handrail painting in trendy colours like
matt black, silver effects, or bold statement shades, making sure the edges
where paint meets glass look sharp.
