Hallway Painting

Create the perfect first impression with a beautifully painted hallway

About This Service

Your hallway is the first impression visitors get of your home, and it also has to cope with heavy daily traffic. It is often a complex space to decorate — high ceilings, restricted space for working, staircase and landing areas, and the need for particularly durable finishes that can withstand knocks and scuffs. Our hallway painting specialists have the experience and equipment to handle every challenge.

What Hallway Painting Involves

  • Painting of hallway, staircase and landing walls
  • Painting of hallway ceiling and stairwell ceiling at height
  • Painting of banisters, newel posts and handrails
  • Painting of doors, skirtings and architraves
  • Application of hard-wearing, scrubbable emulsions for high-traffic areas
  • Careful working at height in stairwells

Why Use a Professional?

Stairwells present significant access challenges — working safely at height in a confined space requires the right equipment and experience. Our decorators have the specialist access equipment to reach all areas of your hallway and stairwell safely and efficiently.

Our Process

1

Access Planning

We assess the stairwell and plan the safest and most efficient method of access for all areas.

2

Preparation

We protect floors and furniture, and prepare all surfaces for painting.

3

Painting

We paint the hallway working from top to bottom — ceiling first, then walls, then woodwork.

4

Completion

We paint all skirting boards, doors and architraves and carry out a final quality check.

Frequently Asked Questions

What colours work best in hallways?

Light, airy colours make narrow hallways feel more spacious. Neutral tones, warm whites and light greys are all popular choices.

How do you safely paint a stairwell?

We use specialist stairwell access systems — including telescopic ladder systems designed specifically for stairwells — to work safely at height.

What finish should I use in a hallway?

We recommend a hard-wearing scrubbable emulsion for hallway walls as they receive more knocks and handprints than other rooms.

Can you paint the banister and spindles?

Yes — painting or repainting wooden banisters is a popular service that can transform the look of a staircase.
