Interior Painting
Living rooms and kitchens are the most commonly painted rooms in Savick homes. Living rooms often have detailed trim work, which is typical of Preston's traditional houses. This requires careful painting around decorative edges. Kitchens need special attention because of moisture and heavy use. We use tough paint that stands up to steam and regular cleaning.
Many homeowners like accent walls, especially in bedrooms and dining rooms. The natural light in these areas makes bold feature walls stand out beautifully. Hallways in older homes tend to be narrow. We use special painting techniques to make these spaces feel bigger while keeping the paint durable for heavy foot traffic.
Housing Characteristics & Materials
Savick has both pre-war and post-war homes, each needing different painting approaches. Older homes usually have plaster walls with lime in them. These walls need special preparation and breathable paint. Newer homes have smooth drywall, but many still have traditional features that need careful attention.
The woodwork in older homes often includes original Victorian trim and decorative moldings. These beautiful features need careful preparation. We choose the right paints to protect these historic elements while keeping their charm.
Technical Considerations
Savick's humid climate affects how paint performs indoors. We use moisture-resistant paints in bathrooms and kitchens. We also add special ingredients to prevent mold growth.
Preparing older plaster walls is very important. Our specialists check for:
- Wall condition
- Repair needs
- The right primer choice
- How many coats of paint are needed
Quality Control & Finishing
We take extra care where old plaster meets new drywall repairs. We make sure these areas blend smoothly. We check our work under different lights because Savick's natural light changes throughout the year.
For historic homes, we mix old and new techniques. Sometimes we brush paint by hand to match original textures. We might use special techniques on ceilings to keep the traditional look while using modern, long-lasting paints.
These local approaches help us make local homes beautiful while protecting their historic character. We use modern materials but respect the unique architecture of each home. If you’re interested in transforming your home, please reach out for more information!
Exterior Painting
Exterior painting in Savick needs special care because of its unique homes and Preston's changing weather. The area has many terraced houses, semi-detached homes, and post-war buildings. Most have pebble-dashed walls or traditional brick exteriors.
Protection from Preston's Weather
Savick gets lots of rain and has high humidity. This means homes need special moisture-resistant paints. Brands like Dulux Weathershield and Sandtex work well on local pebble-dash walls. These paints create a shield while letting walls breathe, which stops moisture from getting trapped and causing damage.
Working with Different Building Types
Different house surfaces need special painting methods:
- Pebble-dash walls need special stretchy paints, sprayed on for even coverage
- Brick walls need breathable paint that lets moisture move naturally
- Wooden parts like window frames need paint that can expand and shrink with the weather
Choosing the Right Colors
Most Savick streets have neutral-colored homes. But more owners are now adding soft greens and blues as highlight colors. Popular paint combinations include:
- Grey walls with white edges
- Off-white walls with traditional-style colored doors
- Natural brown shades with nature-inspired touches
Painting at the Right Time
To get the best results in Savick's weather:
- Clean and fix walls when it's dry
- Paint only when it's warmer than 10°C
- Use several thin layers of paint instead of one thick coat
- Give paint extra time to dry because of the humidity
By following these local tips, painted homes can look great and stay protected for years. This helps keep our Preston community looking its best. Consider reaching out for professional assistance to ensure your home gets the best care it deserves.

Popular Choices for Terraced Homes
In terraced homes and semi-detached houses, light neutral colours are a popular choice. Farrow & Ball's "Cornforth White" is a favourite because it makes narrow rooms feel brighter and warmer. This shade works perfectly with the traditional features in many local homes.
Trendy Feature Wall Colours
Deep navy blues, like Hague Blue, are trending for feature walls in well-lit living rooms. This rich colour adds class while connecting to Preston's history. Forest greens, especially Studio Green, are also popular as they match Savick's outdoor spaces.
Natural Kitchen and Living Area Tones
Many owners of 1950s and 1960s bungalows choose sage and olive greens for their kitchens and living areas. These natural colours work especially well in homes near Savick Brook or Haslam Park, helping to bring the outdoors in.
Traditional Colour Combinations
Period homes often use traditional colour combinations. Victorian terraces commonly feature cozy bedrooms in dusky purple and deep plum. These colours respect the home's history while providing modern comfort.
Bright Pastels for Narrow Hallways
Older properties often have narrow hallways. Here, bright pastels like duck egg blue and soft lilac help make these spaces feel larger. These colours reflect light well, which is perfect for areas that don't get much natural light.
Chalk Paint Popularity
Chalk paint has become very popular in Savick. Many homeowners use it to update furniture and add character to newer homes. This paint style helps blend modern and traditional looks, which suits Savick's mix of old and new houses.
Consider updating your home with these beautiful colour schemes that capture the local style!

Outdoor Structures Care
Outdoor structures need special care. We pressure wash fences and decks, then apply weather-proof stains and protective coatings. This helps prevent moss and algae - a common problem for local homeowners.

- Removing old paint

Local Experts
We've been serving Savick for many years. As local experts, we know exactly how to handle the unique painting and decorating challenges of homes in this Preston suburb. We understand the local houses and weather conditions, which helps us provide the perfect solutions.
Moisture Problems
Properties near Savick Brook face special moisture problems. The area gets over 900mm of rain yearly, and the brook creates high humidity. We've created special methods to fight dampness, using moisture-resistant paints and proper ventilation. This is especially important for older homes built before 1950, which make up 35% of Savick's houses.
Masonry Coatings
Many local homes are post-war semi-detached houses with pebbledash exteriors. These need special care. We use specific masonry coatings that let the walls breathe while protecting them from Savick's strong Atlantic winds and frequent rain.
Traditional Features
We're experts at working with traditional features. This includes bay windows and Victorian coving, especially in homes near Cottam Lane. We know how to preserve these period details while giving homes a modern update. We're also skilled at working with both red Lancashire brick and rendered walls.
Family-Friendly Finishes
Most people in Savick (68%) own their homes, and many are long-term family properties. That's why we use strong, family-friendly finishes that look great and last long. We help residents choose colors that work well with Northwest England's natural light, making homes brighter during short winter days.

Home improvements in Savick have gone up by 15% in the last two years. We keep up with all local planning rules, especially for homes near the historic Haslam Park conservation area.
