Door Painting Services in Newcastle
Flush Door Repainting
Hollow-core flush doors are standard across 1970s semis and newer properties. Original emulsion finish yellows and shows roller marks. Repainting with quality eggshell or satin requires thorough sand and de-grease of the old surface.
We de-grease all doors with a dilute detergent wash, then sand to create adhesion for the new paint. Bare patches get prime coat. Two finish coats in water-based satin or eggshell follow. This prevents the new paint from showing every brush mark or failing within the first winter.
Panelled Doors
Original pine or hardwood panelled doors are common in period properties across Jesmond and Gosforth. These can be repainted in solid colour or stripped back to natural timber.
We assess panel condition and advise on the best approach. Some original doors are worth restoring to natural timber. Others are better finished in contemporary colour. Either route starts with proper preparation.
Door Frames and Architraves
Door frames and architraves need the same preparation care as the doors themselves. We repaint these as part of a full door package, ensuring colour consistency and finish quality throughout.
Mismatched door and frame finishes look incomplete. We repaint both for a polished result.
Multiple Colours and Effects
Two-tone doors (different colours on frame and panels) and contemporary effects are possible. These add preparation time and require precise masking. We advise on additional cost at the site visit.
Here’s How It Works
1. De-grease
All doors and frames washed with dilute detergent solution to remove grease and dirt.
2. Sand
Thorough sand to create adhesion for new paint. Bare patches and damage identified.
3. Prime
Bare patches primed. Stained or damaged areas sealed.
4. Finish Coats
Two coats of water-based satin or eggshell, depending on your finish choice.
5. Hardware and Inspection
Door handles and locks replaced once paint is fully cured.

Door Painting Costs in Newcastle
Prices below are estimates only. Every door is different. Call 0191 743 3614 for a precise quote.
Number of Doors
A three-bedroom house has more doors than a two-bedroom flat. We quote per door once we assess the site. Interior door repainting typically costs between £480 and £720 for a full set of 7–8 doors plus frames.
Door Condition
Heavily yellowed or stained doors need extra sanding. Water-damaged doors require filler and primer. We identify all issues at the site visit and include treatment in the quote.
Four interior doors plus frames in a Kenton 1970s semi (de-grease, sand, water-based satin): £420–£620. Seven to eight doors in a Ponteland detached (flush and panelled mix, eggshell): £620–£900.
Finish Sheen
Eggshell or satin finish — both durable for interior use. We advise at the site visit.
Original pine panelled doors in a Jesmond Victorian terrace (strip, sand, repaint or restore to natural): £520–£800.
