Front Doors We Spray

- uPVC doors: sprayed with Kolorbond-certified coatings made to bond to uPVC and guaranteed for 10 years; the usual replacement door on the 23.6% of local properties built from 1973 to 1999, roughly 740 homes.

When the homes were built
What the age of Leeming Bar homes means for your front door
18.2% of the 3,130 properties around Leeming Bar centre pre-date 1919 (below the 21% average) and 2.6% were built between the wars. On those roughly 650 older homes, expect a timber door, a uPVC replacement, or a timber door in a uPVC frame.
30.4% of local properties date from 1945 to 1972 and 23.6% from 1973 to 1999, 54.0% together, above the 45% average. Doors on those roughly 1,700 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.
25.6% of properties around Leeming Bar centre have been built since 2000 (well above the 17% average). Many of those roughly 800 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, 17.3% of properties in Bedale (2 miles away) and 11.0% in Northallerton (6 miles) pre-date 1919, so Leeming Bar has a share of period housing close to Bedale and more than Northallerton. Since 2000 the figure is 25.6% here, 26.6% in Bedale and 21.8% in Northallerton. For the uPVC-era decades from 1945 to 1999 the shares are 54.0% here, 53.1% in Bedale and 59.4% in Northallerton.
Who lives in Leeming Bar, and what that changes
84.2% of the 2,717 households in Leeming Bar live in detached or semi-detached houses, against 58% across all our towns. Where one of these roughly 2,300 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 Leeming Bar on the same visit.
64.7% of households own their home and 23.1% rent privately, against averages of 63% and 19%. If you own, it is worth spraying the frame at the same time, while landlords of the roughly 930 rented homes here may prefer one hard-wearing colour so touch-ups stay simple.
Choosing a door colour for Leeming Bar
79.6% of Leeming Bar 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 Leeming Bar can be done in the same visit so the colours line up.
