- Single team throughout, one quote, one handover
How Cheshire Painters Works
Cheshire Painters connects Wilmslow homeowners with our trusted local painter and decorator partner.
From the first site visit to the written quote, the work, and the guarantee that backs it, everything runs directly between you and your decorator. We make the introduction and stay on hand; they do the work and stand behind it.
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
Your decorator fills cracks and nail holes, sands back flaking paint, spot-primes bare patches, and stabilises 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 work starts.
Whole-house colour planning
Your decorator advises 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. Your decorator manages every detail from first preparation through final walkthrough.
House Painting Costs in Cheshire
Prices below are estimates only. Every property is different.
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.
Interior-only or exterior-only projects

How a Full House Repaint Works
1. Consultation and walkthrough
Your decorator visits the property and walks every room and surface with you. Your decorator notes 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 work starts.
3. Sequence planning
Your decorator plans the order of rooms around your daily routine. For occupied properties, work typically starts at the top of the house and moves 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 moving to the next. Two or more finish coats on all surfaces, depending on the paint system.
6. Final inspection and sign-off
Your decorator walks the full property with you at the end. Anything that doesn’t meet the standard is addressed before your decorator leaves.
