Staircase Painting in Wandsworth: What to expect
Most staircase jobs in Wandsworth (SW18) are in victorian terracess where the spindles, strings and handrails have collected 30+ years of paint and the treads are scuffed from daily use. We hand-strip and sand back to a sound key, fill the joints, prime and finish in a hard-wearing eggshell system. Half-stair scheduling keeps the staircase usable through the work.
Wandsworth continues to attract families drawn to its combination of excellent schools, green spaces, and well-proportioned Victorian homes. Our work here spans everything from refreshing period terraces near Wandsworth Common to finishing contemporary new-builds along the riverside. We're familiar with the area's mix of property styles and adapt our approach accordingly.
