About this service

What this service involves

A staircase is often the first thing you see in a home, and painting it well takes care — spindles and handrails are fiddly, treads and risers take a lot of wear, and access up a flight of stairs needs planning. A decorator prepares the timber, primes where needed, and finishes with a durable topcoat. Tell us what you'd like and we'll help connect you with a local professional.

Why use a professional

The benefit of getting it done properly

Practical reasons a professional finish is worth it for this kind of work.

Durable on treads
Stair treads take heavy wear, so the right hard-wearing finish matters.
Crisp spindles
Fiddly balustrades finished cleanly without clogging the detail.
Planned access
A staircase is painted in stages so you can still get up and down.
Hallway character
A finished staircase turns a plain hallway into a feature.
