At Paintr®, we believe great decorating is all about the details — and few details make a bigger impact than beautifully painted doors and architraves. These features frame every room, guide the eye, and take more daily wear than almost any other part of your home.
Our door and architrave painting service is designed to give your woodwork a crisp, smooth, durable finish that instantly elevates your interior.
Whether you live in a Georgian townhouse in Bathwick, a Victorian terrace in Widcombe, or a modern home in Odd Down, freshly painted doors and frames help your space feel cleaner, brighter, and more refined. They’re the finishing touches that bring a room together — and when they’re done properly, the difference is huge.
Why Doors & Architraves Matter
Doors and architraves are high‑contact surfaces. They’re opened, closed, touched, knocked, and scuffed every single day. Over time, this leaves them looking worn, chipped, or yellowed — even if the rest of the room looks immaculate.
Freshly painted doors and frames:
- Instantly refresh your interior
- Add structure and definition to your décor
- Create clean, sharp lines around each room
- Protect woodwork from daily wear
- Modernise older properties
- Tie together your colour scheme
They’re small details with big visual impact.
Expert Preparation for a Perfect Finish
At Paintr®, we never cut corners on preparation — especially when it comes to woodwork. Doors and architraves need careful attention to achieve a smooth, professional finish.
Our process includes:
- Cleaning and degreasing to remove oils and residue
- Sanding to smooth rough areas and key the surface
- Filling dents, cracks, and old screw holes
- Caulking gaps between frames and walls
- Priming to ensure strong adhesion
- Applying durable topcoats in your chosen finish
This method ensures your doors and architraves look flawless and stay looking great for years.
Choosing the Right Finish for Your Home
Different homes and different rooms call for different finishes. We help you choose the right one based on durability, style, and the overall look you want.
Popular options include:
- Satinwood – Modern, subtle sheen, easy to clean
- Eggshell – Soft, elegant, ideal for period homes
- Gloss – High shine, traditional, extremely durable
- Matt trim paints – Contemporary and understated
Whether you want classic white doors, soft heritage tones, or something bold and modern, we guide you through the best options.
