Door Painting Services in Hereford

Interior Flush Doors

Flush doors require degreasing and light sanding before priming. The flat surface should be smooth after preparation.

Dents and minor damage are filled before priming. We include minor filling in the preparation stage as standard.

Panelled Doors

Panel doors have multiple flat and moulded surfaces. The panel recess, moulding profile, and flat rail and stile surfaces all need individual attention.

We paint panel doors in the correct sequence: panels first, then mouldings, then rails and stiles. Getting the order wrong produces visible join lines.

Door Frames and Architraves

Door frames and architraves are as important as the door itself. An immaculate door against a poorly prepared frame looks inconsistent.

We include frames and architraves in every door painting scope. The frame is always included in the written quote.

Wardrobe and Built-In Doors

Built-in wardrobe doors are often flush MDF panels. MDF requires the correct primer on all edges and faces to prevent edge chipping and delamination.

For full bedroom and home office decoration including built-in joinery, see our interior painting page.

Period Door Preparation

Original Victorian and Edwardian doors have often been repainted many times. Accumulated paint layers create a thick, soft surface that must be stripped back to sound paint.

For original timber joinery and hardwood preparation, see our wood painting page.

Here’s How It Works

1. Door Assessment

We inspect each door, frame, and architrave. We note paint build-up and any repairs needed.

2. Preparation

We sand back loose and flaking paint. Hairline cracks at panel edges are filled. Frames and architraves are prepared to the same standard.

3. Priming

We apply the correct primer for the door material. Bare timber gets a timber primer. MDF edges get an MDF-specific primer.

4. Painting Sequence

Panel doors are painted in sequence: panels, mouldings, rails, stiles, and frame. Flush doors are rolled in a single consistent direction.

5. Final Check

We inspect all surfaces in good light. Any brush marks, missed edges, or thin areas are corrected the same day.

Door Type

Panelled doors take longer than flush doors. More panel profiles mean more preparation and careful sequencing.

Interior door painting typically costs between £80 and £180 per door including frame and architraves, depending on door type and condition.

Condition

Doors with significant paint build-up or damage require more preparation time. Victorian panel doors often have 20 or more years of accumulated paint layers.

Stripping and repriming correctly produces a result that holds up for years. Painting over build-up without preparation produces chipping and cracking within a season.

Number of Doors

Multiple doors quoted together reduce the mobilisation cost per door. A full set of interior doors is quoted lower per door than a single door.

  • Set of internal panel doors (Eign Hill Victorian terrace, 4 doors including frames): £320 to £520
  • Single interior flush door (Belmont 1970s semi, including frame): £80 to £140
  • Single period panelled door (with frame, preparation to sound paint): £140 to £200
