House Painting Services
Full Interior Repaint
A full interior repaint covers every room in the house, including ceilings, walls, woodwork, and doors. It produces a consistent standard throughout rather than a patchwork of rooms done at different times with different colours and finishes.
Properties in Mickleover that have been owned and incrementally decorated over many years often present this patchwork problem. A whole-house repaint resets everything to a single coherent standard.
Our interior painting service covers full room-by-room preparation and painting, including specialist preparation for older plaster in Chaddesden terraces and period properties in the Cathedral Quarter.
Exterior Walls and Woodwork
Exterior paintwork protects the fabric of the building as well as improving its appearance. Masonry, render, timber windows, fascias, and soffits all need the right product on the right surface to last.
Detached homes in Allestree and Quarndon have more external surface area to cover than a terrace or semi. Four exposed elevations, a garage, boundary walls, and a range of surface types mean a thorough assessment before pricing is essential.
Our exterior painting service covers all surface types, including breathable paint systems for conservation-area properties in Darley Abbey and the Cathedral Quarter.
Coordinated Schedule
Running interior and exterior work at the same time, or in a planned sequence, is more efficient than commissioning them separately. One visit, one mobilisation, one site setup.
For larger detached homes in Allestree, coordinating the programme means the exterior can be completed while internal rooms are drying between coats. There is no dead time waiting for phases to finish.
We produce a written programme before starting. You know which areas we are working in on each day, and the sequence is agreed in advance.
Specialist and Pre-Sale Services
Period Properties
Period properties require more care at every stage. Original lime plaster walls need different primers than modern plasterboard. Timber sash windows have multiple layers of paint that affect their operation.
Victorian terraces in Chaddesden and townhouses in the Cathedral Quarter are properties we work on regularly. We know what preparation these buildings need and what products are appropriate. Our period property painting service covers the full range of heritage requirements.
Pre-Sale Preparation
A well-presented property commands more interest and sells faster. A full repaint before listing is one of the most cost-effective improvements a seller can make.
Larger family homes on Shepherd Street and Blagreaves Lane in Littleover, coming to market after ten or fifteen years, typically need significant preparation as well as fresh paint. We assess the scope honestly and provide a price that reflects the actual work required.

Here’s How It Works
1. Free Quote
We visit the property, inspect all internal and external surfaces, and provide a single fixed price for the whole project.
2. Specification
We confirm the paint products and finishes for each surface. We produce a written programme showing the sequence and expected duration.
3. Preparation
Interior surfaces are filled, sanded, primed, and sealed. Exterior surfaces are cleaned, treated where needed, and primed.
4. Painting
We work through the programme. Each surface and room is finished to the agreed standard before we move on.
5. Final Inspection
We complete a final walk-through with you before leaving. All materials, dust sheets, and waste are removed from the property.
House Painting Costs in Derby
Prices below are estimates only. Every project is different. Call 01332 215887 for a precise quote.
What Drives the Price
Scale of the project. The number of rooms, the number of elevations, and the extent of outbuildings and boundary walls all add to the scope. A 1950s three-bedroom semi in Mickleover is a different project to a five-bedroom detached home on the north side of Derby.
Surface condition and preparation required. Properties that have been patched and touched up over many years need more preparation time. Lime plaster, cracked render, and failed exterior paintwork all require remedial work before any finish coat is applied.
Specification and finish quality. Trade-grade standard paints are priced differently from heritage colour ranges, specialist breathable systems, or high-build exterior products.
Typical Ranges
- 2-3 bed Victorian terrace (Chaddesden): £5,500 to £8,500, full interior plus front and rear exterior.
- 3 bed 1930s-50s semi (Mickleover or Littleover): £6,500 to £10,000, full interior plus full exterior.
- 4-5 bed 1960s-70s detached (Allestree or Quarndon): £11,000 to £18,500, full interior plus full exterior including garage.
Trade insight. Whole-house projects that include both interior and exterior work typically cost less per square metre than commissioning each separately, because mobilisation, setup, and programme management are shared.
