Front Door Painting Services
Solid Timber Door Preparation
Where moulded detail and coating build-up are present, the quote states the preparation method and its limits.
The preparation method is selected after reviewing the door construction, coating build-up, condition and the selected product guidance. The agreed scope records any agreed stripping, primer and finish.
Two-Colour Finishes
The client chooses the colour arrangement, subject to any consent or conservation restrictions that the property owner must confirm.
The written scope records any agreed colour arrangement, masking boundaries, preparation and finish for the door and surrounding joinery.
Exterior Gloss and Flexible Finishes
Oil-based and water-based exterior finishes have different application, drying, sheen, and maintenance characteristics. Suitability depends on the door and selected product guidance.
Aspect and exposure are considered alongside substrate, construction, previous coating, and the proposed product.
Pre-Sale Front Door Refresh
Front-door painting can be included in a pre-sale decorating scope, but no sale, value, or viewing outcome is promised. See Bedgrove for related coverage.
The decorator checks the material, coating condition, edges, movement, and hardware before specifying preparation and finish. Maintenance depends on use, exposure, and the selected product. See house painting for related information.
Side-Lights, Fanlights, and Surrounds
Side-lights, fanlights and porch surrounds can be included where present, with each accessible surface assessed and listed separately in the written scope.
Where a rendered or decorative surround is included, the substrate, existing coating, condition and product requirements are assessed before a system is proposed. For wider exterior detail, see our exterior painting page.
