At Paintr®, we know that your staircase is more than just a way to move between floors — it’s one of the most eye‑catching features in your home. A beautifully painted bannister, staircase, and set of spindles can completely transform your hallway, making it feel brighter, cleaner, and far more welcoming.
Our bannister and staircase painting service is designed to give your woodwork a smooth, durable, professionally finished look that enhances your entire home.
Whether you live in a Georgian townhouse in Bathwick, a Victorian terrace in Widcombe, or a modern family home in Newbridge, freshly painted staircases and spindles bring a sense of craftsmanship and style to your interior. These are high‑traffic areas that deserve the same level of care and attention as any feature wall or piece of furniture.
Why Staircase & Bannister Painting Matters
Your staircase is one of the most used and most visible parts of your home. Over time, bannisters and spindles become scuffed, chipped, or discoloured — especially in busy households. A professional repaint instantly refreshes the space and adds a polished, cohesive feel to your hallway.
Freshly painted staircases:
- Make your entrance feel brighter and more inviting
- Modernise older woodwork
- Highlight architectural details
- Protect surfaces from daily wear
- Create a clean, stylish focal point
- Tie together your interior colour scheme
It’s one of the most impactful upgrades you can make without major renovation.
Expert Preparation for a Flawless Finish
Painting staircases and spindles requires patience, precision, and the right technique. At Paintr®, we take preparation seriously because it’s the foundation of a long‑lasting, professional finish.
Our process includes:
- Cleaning and degreasing to remove oils and fingerprints
- Sanding to smooth rough areas and key the surface
- Filling dents, cracks, and imperfections
- Caulking gaps for clean, seamless lines
- Priming to ensure strong adhesion
- Applying durable topcoats designed for high‑traffic woodwork
This careful approach ensures your staircase looks immaculate from every angle.
Choosing the Right Finish for Your Home
Staircases take a lot of wear, so choosing the right paint is essential. We help you select finishes that balance durability with style.
Popular options include:
- Satinwood – Modern, subtle sheen, easy to clean
- Eggshell – Soft, elegant, perfect for period homes
- Gloss – High shine, traditional, extremely durable
- Matt trim paints – Contemporary and understated
Whether you want a classic white staircase, a bold contrasting bannister, or a modern two‑tone look, we guide you through the best options for your home.
Perfect for Period & Modern Properties
We tailor our approach to suit each property.
Period homes often feature original spindles and handrails that require delicate preparation and heritage‑appropriate finishes.
Modern homes benefit from clean lines and contemporary tones. Whatever your style, we deliver a finish that enhances your home’s character.
