Spray painting for Arnold homes

Most of what we are asked to spray in Arnold falls into two groups: uPVC on the outside of the house, and kitchen units and fitted wardrobes inside it. The principle is the same for both. The doors, frames and panels you already have stay where they are, and only the colour and the finish change.

We are based in Aspley, a few miles across the north of Nottingham, so Arnold sits well inside our regular area.

uPVC windows and doors

This semi in Arnold had white uPVC windows and French doors at the back. They were sprayed anthracite grey, which gives the garden side of the house a sharper, more modern look without a single frame being replaced.

Before any colour goes on, the glass, sills, brick and paving are sheeted, and every frame is degreased, lightly sanded and primed. The colour is then built up in thin coats. Front doors and garage doors are done the same way; see front door spraying and garage door spray painting.

Kitchen cabinet spraying in Arnold

A kitchen that works but looks dated is one of the best things to spray. Doors, drawer fronts, end panels and plinths are resprayed, so the layout, worktops and appliances stay as they are, and you avoid the cost and upheaval of a refit.

In the kitchen below, the wood-effect tall units and end panels were sprayed black. The room was masked and sheeted from floor to ceiling before any spraying started.

Prices in Arnold

  • Windows from £75 each, any colour
  • Front door from £160 uPVC
  • Garage door from £250 steel or uPVC
  • Kitchens quoted by number of units

The price guide has the full list. If you are having the windows done, adding the front door or garage door in the same visit costs less than booking it on its own.

Choosing a colour for an Arnold house

Arnold's housing runs from older terraces near Front Street to inter-war and post-war semis and newer estates on its edges, and the brick makes the biggest difference to which colour works. Red brick carries anthracite, charcoal and black well, and so can buff brick, as the job above shows. Render usually looks better with a softer grey, sage or cream than with something close to black.

Inside, the question is the light. A dark kitchen colour looks rich in a bright room and heavy in a dim one, so we bring samples and look at them in your room, at the time of day you use it most.

Planning in Arnold

Gedling Borough Council has seven conservation areas: Bestwood Village, Calverton, Gedling Village, Lambley, Linby, Papplewick and Woodborough. None of them is in Arnold, so changing the colour of your uPVC or your front door is normally your own decision.

A listed building is the exception wherever it is. If your house is listed, speak to the council before changing anything on it.

Reviews

Spray painting in Arnold: your questions

Do I need planning permission to change my window colour in Arnold?

Normally not. Gedling Borough Council's seven conservation areas are in Bestwood Village, Calverton, Gedling Village, Lambley, Linby, Papplewick and Woodborough, and none of them covers Arnold. The exception is a listed building: if your house is listed, speak to the council before changing anything on it.

Can you spray kitchen cabinets as well as uPVC?

Yes. Kitchen doors, drawer fronts and end panels are resprayed in a new colour, which changes the look of the room without replacing the units, the worktops or the appliances.

How much does spraying cost in Arnold?

Outside, windows start at £75 each, front doors at £160 and garage doors at £250. Kitchens are priced by the number of units, and photos are usually enough for us to give you a figure.

How long does the work take?

A house of uPVC windows is usually a one or two-day job. For kitchens and wardrobes it depends on the number of units, and we give you the timescale with the quote.

Do you cover Daybrook and Woodthorpe?

Yes, and Redhill, Mapperley Plains, Killisick and Dorket Head as well.

Is the finish guaranteed?

Yes. Sprayed finishes carry a 10-year guarantee, inside the house and out.
