Staircase Painting Services
Balusters, Handrail, and Newel Posts
The balustrade is the most labour-intensive part. Your decorator paints balusters individually, working through the run methodically.
Stairwell Walls and Ceiling
In a Victorian villa the stairwell ceiling can reach four metres. Your decorator uses tower access equipment for stairwells.
Period Staircase Woodwork
Victorian staircases often have panelled dado sections and elaborate newel post caps. Your decorator works on original Victorian staircases regularly. These often extend to interior painting of the wider hall.
Access Planning
The work is phased to keep the staircase usable throughout. For full hallway programmes, see our hallway painting page.
The Staircase Painting Process
1. Site Visit and Access Planning
Your decorator assesses height, balustrade detail, and access requirements.
2. Surface Preparation
All woodwork is cleaned and abraded. Walls and ceilings are filled and sanded.
3. Masking
Stairs, flooring, and adjacent surfaces are protected.
4. Paint Application
Your decorator works from the highest point downwards: ceiling, walls, then woodwork.
5. Daily Access Review
The staircase is kept passable at the end of each working day.
