Interior Painting
Ribbleton has many types of homes, from old terraced houses to modern builds. Each home needs different painting approaches to look its best. Let's look at what works for different rooms in your home.
Popular Rooms We Paint
Living Rooms
Most living rooms have either plaster walls (in older homes) or smooth drywall (in newer ones). These rooms see lots of daily use, so they need tough, washable paint. We often use satin or eggshell finishes, which work great for families with kids or pets.
Kitchens
Kitchens need special care because of steam and splashes. We use moisture-resistant paints that last longer in these wet conditions. Many people also choose to paint their cabinets instead of replacing them. This costs less and looks great when done right.
Hallways
In terraced houses, hallways get knocked about a lot. We use tougher, shinier paints here so you can clean them easily. We pay extra attention to corners and edges where bags and shoes might bump the walls.
Bedrooms
Bedrooms need gentle treatment. In older homes, we carefully fix any cracks in the plaster walls. We use special low-VOC paints that don't smell strong, so you can sleep comfortably.
Special Features in Local Homes
Older Homes:
- Have decorated ceilings and fancy moldings that need careful handling
- Often need special primers
- Have unique features like wooden beams and fireplaces
Newer Homes:
- Have drywall that needs smooth preparation
- Need careful attention where walls join
How We Work
We always:
- Clean walls thoroughly
- Fix any damage
- Use the right primers
- Protect special features
Wall Types and Treatment
Different walls need different care:
- Plaster Walls: We check for damp and seal properly
- Drywall: We make joints smooth and sand carefully
- Decorative Parts: We protect and enhance original features
By understanding these local needs, we make sure your home looks beautiful and stays that way for years to come. Contact us today to get started on transforming your home!
Exterior Painting
Our local homes need special care when it comes to exterior painting. The mix of Victorian terraces and post-war semis each have their own challenges. Our area's wet climate and high humidity mean we must choose the right materials and timing for the best results.
Weather Considerations
The local weather affects how we paint our homes. Rain and moisture can damage traditional pebble-dash walls and decorative brickwork. This is why proper preparation and the right paint choice are so important.
Recommended Paints
For Ribbleton homes, Dulux Weathershield works particularly well. It's especially good for the pebble-dash surfaces common on our post-war houses. This paint fights off moisture from our frequent rain and keeps its color despite harsh sun and weather.
Preparation is Key
Getting surfaces ready is crucial in our local climate. Victorian homes with their detailed bricks and sash windows need careful cleaning and fixing first. Our winter freeze-thaw cycles can damage paint, so good preparation helps your paint job last longer.
Choosing Colors
The style of your home helps decide the best colors. Modern homes near Moor Park often look best with neutral shades. Victorian terraces usually suit deeper, bolder colors that match their historic features. We always balance traditional looks with modern paint protection.
Timing for Painting
The best time for exterior painting is from late spring to early autumn. This timing lets paint dry properly in our local weather. We take extra care with wooden details and decorative parts, which are common in older homes.
Conclusion
Success comes from choosing the right materials and timing, plus thorough preparation. This approach protects your home while keeping the special character of our historic Preston suburb. Contact us today to discuss how we can help transform your home with our expert exterior painting services!

Victorian Properties
For Victorian properties, classic heritage colours work beautifully. Deep greens, warm greys, and rich cream shades complement the traditional features. These colours help preserve the period feel while keeping your home looking fresh.
Post-War Semis
Post-war semis suit both traditional and contemporary colour schemes. Neutral tones like soft whites and pale greys create a timeless look. Meanwhile, bolder colours can help your house stand out from neighbouring properties.
Modern Homes
Modern homes often look best with current colour trends. Clean whites, charcoal greys, and subtle earth tones are popular choices. These shades work well with newer building materials and architectural features.
Choosing the Right Colours
Not sure which colours would suit your home? Our local painters can help you choose. We understand Ribbleton's housing styles and can suggest colours that will look great on your property. We'll consider your home's age, style, and surroundings to find the perfect match.

Additional Services

In North West England, outdoor woodwork gets very wet. We use special weatherproof stains and treatments on fences, decks, and garden items. These treatments help your wood last longer in Ribbleton's damp weather. This saves you money by avoiding early replacements.

Damp is a common problem in local homes, especially with poor airflow. We use special damp-proof paints and anti-mould treatments that work well here. These help protect your walls and control moisture levels. This is very important for older houses in our area.

We fix common local problems before painting:
- Repair crumbling plaster from moisture damage
