Front Doors We Spray

- Composite doors: a specialist adhesion primer and two spray topcoats that stand up to daily use; builder-fitted composites are common on the 22.1% of Kilham properties built since 2000, about 170 homes.

When the homes were built
What the age of Kilham homes means for your front door
32.5% of the 770 properties around Kilham centre pre-date 1919 (well above the 21% average) and 5.2% were built between the wars. On those roughly 290 older homes, expect a timber door, a uPVC replacement, or a timber door in a uPVC frame.
10.4% of properties date from 1945 to 1972 and 28.6% from 1973 to 1999: 39.0% together, about 300 homes, below the 45% average for those decades. Many of the 290 or so older homes here have had their doors replaced with uPVC as well, and a yellowed white uPVC door takes a Kolorbond-certified respray with a 10-year guarantee.
22.1% of properties around Kilham centre have been built since 2000 (above the 17% average). Many of those roughly 170 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, 24.2% of properties in Nafferton (3 miles away) and 17.4% in Driffield (5 miles) pre-date 1919, so Kilham has more period housing than either. Since 2000 the figure is 22.1% here, 22.4% in Nafferton and 28.4% in Driffield. For the uPVC-era decades from 1945 to 1999 the shares are 39.0% here, 51.6% in Nafferton and 47.8% in Driffield.
Who lives in Kilham, and what that changes
85.3% of the 708 households in Kilham live in detached or semi-detached houses, against 58% across all our towns. Where one of these roughly 600 homes has a garage, the front door is often seen next to the garage door, so it is worth choosing both colours together; we can do the garage door in Kilham on the same visit.
75.9% of Kilham households own their home, above the 63% average, so if you are one of the roughly 540 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 Kilham
61.1% of Kilham properties were built after 1945, and on later brick and render anthracite grey (RAL 7016) and black are popular because they match modern grey windows; if yours are still white uPVC, uPVC window spraying in Kilham can be done in the same visit so the colours line up.

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).
