At Paintr®, we understand that HMO properties are some of the hardest‑working properties. With multiple tenants, shared living spaces, and constant day‑to‑day use, these properties need a decorating approach that’s fast, durable, and designed to withstand real‑world wear.
Our HMO painting and decorating service in Bath helps landlords, letting agents, and property managers keep their shared homes looking clean, modern, and welcoming — all while staying cost‑effective and efficient.
Whether you manage a student HMO in Oldfield Park, a professional house share in Widcombe, or a multi‑room rental in Twerton, we deliver reliable, high‑quality decorating that protects your investment and keeps tenants happy.
Why Professional Decorating Matters in HMO Properties
HMOs experience significantly more footfall than standard rentals. Shared kitchens, hallways, and living rooms are used daily by multiple tenants, which means scuffs, marks, and general wear appear quickly.
Professional decorating helps:
- Increase rental appeal and attract quality tenants
- Reduce void periods between tenancies
- Protect walls and woodwork from heavy use
- Create a clean, modern, neutral look
- Support long‑term property maintenance
- Improve tenant satisfaction and reduce complaints
A freshly decorated HMO stands out instantly in listings and viewings — and often rents faster.
Fast Turnaround for Changeovers & Maintenance Cycles
We know that timing is crucial for HMO landlords. Whether you’re preparing for a new academic year or refreshing a property between tenants, you need decorators who work quickly and efficiently.
Our HMO decorating process includes:
- Quick assessment to understand the scope of work
- Surface preparation including filling, sanding, and stain treatment
- Fast, high‑quality painting using durable, washable products
- Clean, tidy working practices to keep the property viewing‑ready
- Flexible scheduling including evenings and weekends
- Final inspection to ensure a consistent, professional finish
We work at pace without compromising on quality — ideal for tight deadlines and busy rental cycles.
Durable, Washable Finishes for High‑Traffic Shared Homes
HMO properties need finishes that can handle everyday life. Scuffs, spills, and general wear are inevitable, so we recommend high‑performance paints that are easy to clean and long‑lasting.
Popular choices include:
- Durable matt for walls — modern, wipeable, and hard‑wearing
- Satinwood for woodwork — clean, low‑sheen, and easy to maintain
- Stain‑blocking primers for problem areas
- Neutral colour schemes that appeal to a wide range of tenants
These finishes keep your property looking fresher for longer and reduce the need for frequent redecorating.
Perfect for Student HMOs, Professional House Shares and Multi‑Let Properties
Bath’s HMO market is diverse, and we tailor our approach to suit each property type. Student HMOs often need robust, easy‑clean finishes, while professional house shares benefit from a more refined, modern look. Shared spaces like kitchens, hallways, and lounges require extra durability, while bedrooms benefit from clean, calming tones.
Whatever your property needs, we deliver a finish that’s practical, attractive, and built to last.
