What Our Decorators Paint
Inside the house
- Walls and ceilings
- Skirting boards and architraves
- Interior doors and frames
- Staircases, spindles and handrails
- Radiators
- Built-in wardrobes and panelling
The type of house changes the job more than anything else:
- Detached houses, 42.8% of homes here (about 1,090 households): bigger rooms, more doors and taller stairwells, so a whole-house repaint runs over several days and full rooms sit nearer the top of the range.
- Semi-detached houses, 27.3% of homes here (about 695 households): side access usually makes outside work simpler, and a full bedroom or living room tends to sit in the middle of our price range.
- Terraced houses, 20.6% of homes here (about 525 households): rooms are often compact, and the hall, stairs and landing together are frequently the most worthwhile single job.
- Flats, 8.1% of homes here (about 206 households): work is usually one or two rooms at a time, with lifts, stairs, parking and any communal areas checked at the visit.
Outside the house
- Render and masonry walls
- Soffits, fascias and bargeboards
- Timber cladding
- Garden walls and outbuildings
48.9% of properties here were built after 1972, so many have facing brick that is best left unpainted, and outside jobs are more often fascias, bargeboards, porches and garden buildings. For a full sprayed render finish see exterior spraying in Addingham; uPVC windows and doors are a separate service with their own coatings and guarantee, on our uPVC window painting page for Addingham.
Woodwork, doors and staircases
36.3% of properties date from 1973 to 1999, the era of varnished pine doors and skirtings, which need keying and a stain-blocking primer before they take a modern colour.

Brush, roller or spray: how we choose
We pick the method for each surface: walls and ceilings in furnished rooms are usually rollered with the edges cut in by brush, doors, frames, skirting, staircases and radiators are usually sprayed for a finish with no brush marks, and empty rooms, new builds and render are often sprayed throughout. In the detached houses that make up 42.8% of homes around Addingham centre, a lived-in room usually gets rollered walls and sprayed doors, skirting and stairs; if you want the walls sprayed too, see interior spraying in Addingham.

What these figures mean for decorating in Addingham
79.2% of homes around Addingham centre are owner-occupied, 16.4 points above the 63% average for the areas we cover, and only 13.0% are privately rented. When you are decorating a home you mean to stay in, money is best spent on preparation, because filling, sanding and priming properly decide whether the finish still looks good in five years.
42.8% of homes are detached, 22.3 points above the 20% average for the areas we cover, which means long runs of skirting, more doors and tall stairwells; reaching a stairwell ceiling safely needs a stair platform or tower, allowed for in the fixed quote rather than added later. A detached house also has four elevations outside, and each can be priced separately if you would rather start with the front.
How old the homes are, and why it matters for paint
48.9% of properties were built since 1973 and 32.8% before 1940, so most surfaces here need less stripping and filling and more of the time goes into the finish coats themselves.
- 1973 to 1999, 36.3% (about 950 properties): plasterboard walls paint well, but varnished pine doors and skirtings need keying and a stain-blocking primer or knots bleed through a pale colour.
- Built before 1919, 29.4% (about 770 properties): lime plaster and solid stone or brick walls want a breathable paint rather than vinyl emulsion, and old woodwork may hide lead paint, so it should be tested before any dry sanding.
- 1945 to 1972, 17.9% (about 470 properties): textured ceiling coatings are common, and any applied before 2000 can contain asbestos, so they should be painted over or tested, never sanded or scraped.
- 2000 onwards, 12.6% (about 330 properties): walls usually carry a thin contract matt that marks easily, and shrinkage cracks in the first year or two are normal, so redecorating after that settling lasts better.
The figures cover 2,547 households in the 4 neighbourhoods nearest Addingham centre and 2,620 properties in the VOA count; outlying streets may differ, and we judge each house on the visit.

What Customers Say About Our Painting and decorating Work
“The bookshelf arrived in not exactly a great shade of brown, so I asked Matthew to match it to the wall, which he has done perfectly.”
“Really pleased with what Matt and Shaun have done to the fitted wardrobes. Looks like a new bedroom for a fraction of the cost of new fitted furniture.”
“Matt was amazing and the communication was great. We had our house painted with white ceilings and a contrast on the walls - exactly what we asked for.”
