From our workshop in Sheepscar, Leeds, 16 miles away (25 minutes), ColourHaus spray paints walls, ceilings, interior doors, skirtings, staircases and fitted furniture in Featherstone homes, using HVLP equipment for a finish with no brush marks or roller texture (our guide compares spraying with brush and roller decorating).

Of the 6,008 households in the 8 neighbourhoods nearest Featherstone centre, 40% live in semi-detached houses, and the largest group of properties (31%) was built between 1945 and 1972. Around 2,000 of the 6,430 properties in the Valuation Office count date from those years: a lot of flush doors and plain skirtings carrying decades of brushed coats, which spraying levels into one hard, even finish.

Where Spraying Makes the Biggest Difference in Featherstone Homes
- Walls and ceilings. 22% of homes (about 1,410) 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 76% of homes around Featherstone centre (about 4,550 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.
- Doors, frames and skirtings. 49% of properties (about 3,130) 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.
- Period joinery and plasterwork. With 30% 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.
- Fitted furniture and radiators. Wardrobes and alcove units are sprayed in place, and radiators in heat-resistant coatings; see fitted furniture spraying.

When the homes were built
What the age of Featherstone homes means for the paintwork
Only 20% of the 6,430 properties in the Valuation Office count were built before 1919, close to the 21% average across the towns we cover. With 80% 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.
31% of properties were built between 1945 and 1972, above the 26% average across the towns we cover. In those 2,000 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. 22% have been built since 2000, above the 17% average across the towns we cover. In those 1,410 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.
Houses, flats and the shape of the job
Terraced houses make up 36% of homes around Featherstone centre, above the 27% average across the towns we cover, and detached houses only 17%; 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
60% of homes are owner-occupied and 15% 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.
How Featherstone compares with nearby towns
20% of properties here were built before 1919, compared with 10% in Pontefract and 19% in Normanton, so the age of the housing is broadly similar. The type of home differs too: 7% of homes here are flats, against 14% in Pontefract and 10% in Normanton. For newer housing the figures are 22% built since 2000 here, 19% in Pontefract and 17% in Normanton.
