Front Doors We Spray
Going by the age of the 7,840 properties around Guiseley centre, these are the doors we would expect to meet in Guiseley, uPVC first; GRP and steel doors, frames and side panels get their own primers, and handles and letterboxes come off rather than being masked.
- uPVC doors: sprayed with Kolorbond-certified coatings made to bond to uPVC and guaranteed for 10 years; the usual replacement door on the 14.0% of local properties built from 1973 to 1999, roughly 1,100 homes.
- Composite doors: a specialist adhesion primer and two spray topcoats that stand up to daily use; builder-fitted composites are common on the 20.5% of Guiseley properties built since 2000, about 1,600 homes.
- Timber and hardwood doors: grain filling, primer and topcoats for a smooth, brush-free face, from £250; original timber doors are most often found on pre-1919 houses, 13.8% of properties here or roughly 1,100.

Type of home
When the homes were built
What the age of Guiseley homes means for your front door
Only 13.8% of the 7,840 properties around Guiseley centre were built before 1919, against a 21% average. With just 1,100 or so homes of that age, original Victorian timber doors are the exception in Guiseley.
Another 20.3% of properties, roughly 1,600, went up between the wars (above the 16% average). Front doors of that era were often timber with glazed upper panels or leaded lights; where one survives, we mask the glass and spray the timber around it.
31.4% of local properties date from 1945 to 1972 and 14.0% from 1973 to 1999, 45.4% together, close to the 45% average. Doors on those roughly 3,600 homes were very often replaced with white uPVC in the 1980s and 1990s, and white uPVC of that age tends to yellow, chalk or dull.
20.5% of properties around Guiseley centre have been built since 2000 (above the 17% average). Many of those roughly 1,600 newer homes came with a composite, GRP or steel-faced door from the builder's range in the site colour; a respray means you are not stuck with that choice.
For comparison, 17.6% of properties in Yeadon (1 miles away) and 12.7% in Menston (2 miles) pre-date 1919, so Guiseley has a similar share of period housing. Since 2000 the figure is 20.5% here, 9.1% in Yeadon and 28.2% in Menston. For the uPVC-era decades from 1945 to 1999 the shares are 45.4% here, 55.2% in Yeadon and 40.5% in Menston.
Who lives in Guiseley, and what that changes
Housing here is mixed: 22.1% detached, 34.6% semi-detached, 26.1% terraced and 16.0% flats across 7,687 households. With no single type above 35%, the door matters more to the price than the house does, so we quote once we have seen the door, the frame and any side panels.
75.3% of Guiseley households own their home, above the 63% average, so if you are one of the roughly 5,800 owner-occupiers planning to stay, it pays to spray the frame at the same time (from £80 to £120) so the whole entrance ages evenly.
Choosing a door colour for Guiseley
Because Guiseley mixes 13.8% pre-1919 homes with 65.9% built after 1945, there is no single local colour, so hold our sample cards against your own brick or stone in daylight, or use our colour matching service to copy a shade from a photo or a neighbour's door.

Front Door Spraying Prices and Process
Spraying versus a new door
Our service page puts a new composite door at £800 to £2,500 supplied and fitted, and a new uPVC door at £600 to £1,500, against from £200 to respray, though replacement still makes sense when a door is warped, draughty or its locks are failing (our article on front door replacement versus spraying goes through the trade-offs).
