Good to know

Door Painting in Shortlands — FAQs.

How much does it cost to paint doors?

It depends on how many doors, whether frames and architraves are included, and brush or spray finish. WhatsApp us a few photos and we'll put a free fixed quote in writing, usually the same day.

Is spraying better than brushing for doors?

Spraying gives the smoothest, most factory-like finish and suits multiple doors done together; brushing is just as durable and often more practical for one or two doors in situ. We'll recommend whichever suits your job.

Can you transform just my front door?

Yes — a single front door in a bold new colour is one of our most popular jobs, and usually finished in a day.

Do you supply materials for Shortlands jobs?

Either way works: we supply quality trade paint as part of your quote, or you buy your own and we'll tell you exactly how much you need using our paint calculator.

How soon can you start in Shortlands?

Smaller Shortlands jobs can often start within the week; larger projects are usually booked one to three weeks out. Tell us your dates and we'll be straight about what's realistic.
