Under the paint

Prep is our obsession.

Cracks filled and sanded flat. Gaps caulked so lines stay crisp. Stains blocked, bare patches primed, old wallpaper stripped properly — not papered over. It's slower, and it's the only way your Catford project keeps looking sharp for years. If a wall needs plastering rather than paint, we'll tell you honestly.

Good to know

Staircase Painting in Catford — FAQs.

How much does staircase painting cost?

It depends on the number of spindles, whether hall and landing are included, and the current condition of the woodwork. Snap the staircase from the hallway, send it over on WhatsApp, and a free fixed written quote comes back to you.

Can you paint just the spindles and handrail?

Yes, though most customers find it makes sense to do the hall, stairs and landing together while access equipment is already in place — we'll quote both options.

What paint holds up best on a staircase?

A hard-wearing eggshell or satin, specifically formulated for high-traffic woodwork, resists scuffs and grip marks far better than standard matt or gloss.

How much should I budget for staircase painters in Catford?

Every job is priced individually on size, surface condition and finish. Send a few photos of your Catford property on WhatsApp for a free fixed quote — usually the same day, with no hidden extras.

How soon can you start in Catford?

Smaller Catford 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.

Do you cover the rest of Lewisham?

Yes — Catford is part of our coverage across the London Borough of Lewisham, alongside Rushey Green, Catford Bridge, Catford South, Hither Green. One local team, one standard, across the whole borough.
