Where Spraying Makes the Biggest Difference in Allerton Bywater Homes
- Walls and ceilings. 35% of homes (about 670) date from 2000 or later; on plasterboard and skim a sprayed coat goes on flat with no roller stipple, and a washable sheen stands up to daily wear better than a builder's matt.
- Hall, stairs and landing. In the terraced and semi-detached houses that make up 80% of homes around Allerton Bywater centre (about 1,460 households), the stairs usually rise straight from the hall, so the spindles, handrail and doors are the first thing anyone sees; spraying them together means one round of masking.
- Period joinery and plasterwork. With 33% of properties built before 1939, panelled doors, moulded skirtings, picture rails and, in the oldest rooms, cornicing are part of the picture, and those profiles are where brush marks collect while a sprayed coat stays crisp.
- Doors, frames and skirtings. 32% of properties (about 610) were built between 1945 and 1999, and their flush or moulded-panel doors and softwood skirtings have usually been brush-painted several times; keyed and sprayed, they come back to a hard, clean finish.
- Fitted furniture and radiators. Wardrobes and alcove units are sprayed in place, and radiators in heat-resistant coatings; see fitted furniture spraying.

Type of home
When the homes were built
What the age of Allerton Bywater homes means for the paintwork
Only 18% of the 1,920 properties in the Valuation Office count were built before 1919, below the 21% average across the towns we cover. With 82% built since, most walls here are gypsum plaster or plasterboard, which suit a sprayed emulsion over a mist coat or primer, and lime plaster is the exception rather than the rule.
35% have been built since 2000, well above the 17% average across the towns we cover. In those 670 newer homes the walls are often still in the builder's contract matt emulsion, which marks easily and does not wipe clean well, and small settlement cracks at ceiling lines and corners are normal in the first few years; filling them before a washable sprayed finish is a sensible first upgrade. 27% of properties were built between 1945 and 1972, close to the 26% average across the towns we cover. In those 520 or so homes the walls are usually hard gypsum plaster, which takes a sprayed emulsion well, but textured ceiling coatings were common from the 1960s, which is worth knowing before any ceiling preparation starts.
Houses, flats and the shape of the job
Terraced houses make up 39% of homes around Allerton Bywater centre, above the 27% average across the towns we cover, and detached houses only 12%; in most terraces the staircase rises from a narrow hall, so the hall, stairs and landing are best masked and sprayed as one job rather than three, and where parking is on the street we plan unloading for the start of the day and keep equipment inside the house.
Owners, landlords and choosing the finish
69% of homes are owner-occupied and 13% privately rented, against averages of 63% and 19%; owner-occupiers tend to choose eggshell on woodwork for durability, while landlords often prefer one hard-wearing neutral that can be touched in between tenants.
