What’s Included

A full house repaint with Cheshire Painters covers every surface and room agreed in the quote, managed as a single project from start to finish.

Thorough preparation across all surfaces

We fill cracks and nail holes, sand back flaking paint, spot-prime bare patches, and stabilise any loose plaster before any finish coat goes on.

All painted surfaces, fully agreed

Walls, ceilings, woodwork, skirting boards, architraves, window frames, and doors. Every surface agreed in the quote is completed to the same standard.

Interior and exterior in coordinated sequence

Interior first. Exterior second. This protects freshly painted internal surfaces from scaffold dust and weather. The sequence is planned before we start.

Whole-house colour planning

We advise on whole-house palettes, considering how rooms connect and how colours read at different times of day. No separate charge for colour consultation.

A properly completed house repaint is the difference between a property that looks well-maintained and one that feels tired. We manage every detail from first preparation through final walkthrough.

House Painting Costs in Cheshire

Prices below are estimates only. Every property is different. Call 01244 727511 for a precise quote.

Interior and exterior combined

A full interior and exterior repaint for a typical semi-detached in Knutsford or Congleton typically costs between £6,000 and £10,000.

Cost drivers

Property size, condition of existing surfaces, and paint quality all drive cost. A five-bedroom detached in Wilmslow is significantly larger than a three-bedroom Victorian terrace in Hoole.

Large detached properties

Multi-storey homes in Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, and Prestbury with period features and significant exterior scope typically range £10,000 to £20,000+, depending on condition and paint specification.

How a Full House Repaint Works

1. Consultation and walkthrough

We visit the property and walk every room and surface with you. We note ceiling heights, plasterwork condition, period features needing special attention, and the finish you are after.

2. Written quote covering all rooms and surfaces

You receive a clear, itemised quote. Every room and surface is agreed in writing before we start.

3. Sequence planning

We plan the order of rooms around your daily routine. For occupied properties, we typically start at the top of the house and work downwards, completing each floor before moving to the next.

4. Preparation phase

All filling, sanding, and priming happens before a drop of finish coat goes on. This phase takes longer than most clients expect, as it is the reason a professionally painted room looks different from a DIY job five years later.

5. Painting phase

Systematic, room by room. Each room is completed, inspected, and signed off before we move to the next. Two or more finish coats on all surfaces, depending on the paint system.

6. Final inspection and sign-off

We walk the full property with you at the end. Anything that doesn’t meet the standard is addressed before we leave.

House Painting FAQs

How long does a full house repaint take?

It depends on the size of the property and surfaces involved. A three-bedroom Victorian terrace in Hoole typically takes 5 to 8 working days. A large detached in Wilmslow or Prestbury with period features throughout can take 2 to 4 weeks. We give you a realistic timeline in writing before starting.

Can you repaint one room at a time while we’re living in the property?

Yes. For occupied properties we work room by room, completing each one before moving to the next. Furniture is moved and protected during each phase. Most families find the disruption manageable, particularly when we start in less-used rooms.

Do you provide colour consultation?

Yes. We help you plan a whole-house palette, considering how rooms connect and how colours read at different times of day. For period properties we advise on appropriate heritage ranges from Farrow and Ball and Little Greene. No separate charge.

Can you handle both interior and exterior as one project?

Yes. We coordinate interior and exterior work as a single project, working inside first. One point of contact, one quote, one handover.

Do you work with Farrow and Ball and Little Greene paints?

Yes. Both perform well on period plasterwork and provide excellent depth of colour. We can advise on specific shades suited to Cheshire’s Georgian and Victorian interiors and arrange supply as part of your project.

How do you protect original cornicing and sash windows during painting?

Cornicing and decorative plasterwork are masked carefully before painting begins. We use fine-tipped brushes to cut in around intricate profiles. Sash windows are painted in the open position so they still slide freely once the paint has cured.
