Leicester’s Door Painting Specialists
Internal Door Painting
Internal doors in period properties often carry many layers of paint. We assess each door and advise whether stripping, sanding back, or a straight topcoat is the right preparation.
We use oil-based or water-based satin or eggshell for internal doors. Leicester Decorators include door casings and architraves in the quote.
Exterior Door Painting
Exterior doors are exposed to wind, rain, and UV. We sand back loose paint, fill cracks and open joints, and apply an appropriate primer before topcoat.
See our front door painting page for front door projects specifically.
Garage Doors and Whole-House Door Programmes
Garage Doors and Outbuilding Doors
Garage doors and outbuilding doors in Oadby and Birstall often have metal and timber elements. Metal garage doors require a rust-inhibiting primer before topcoat. We also offer dedicated garage door painting services.
We include garage doors and outbuilding doors in the project where they form part of a full exterior painting programme.
Whole-House Door Painting
A whole-house door programme is a common standalone project. In an Oadby 1960s detached, this can mean eight to twelve internal doors plus all their frames. We also offer dedicated window frame painting services.
We sequence the rooms and work through methodically, keeping the property functional throughout. Call 0116 493 0990 for a full interior project.
Here’s How It Works
1. Door Assessment
We check each door’s condition, paint build-up, loose or flaking areas, and any damage before quoting.
2. Preparation
Loose paint stripped or keyed back. Open joints filled and sanded. Bare timber primed.
3. Primer Application
Appropriate primer selected by door type and condition.
4. Topcoat Application
One or two coats of satin, eggshell, or gloss applied by brush for a smooth finish.
5. Final Inspection
Each door checked in good light after the final coat. Touch-ups completed before we leave.
