Wall Painting Services in Surrey
Interior Walls
Interior walls are painted with attention to coverage and finish quality. Surface condition is assessed and the right primer applied for each material type.
Modern plasterboard, old lime plaster, and repaired surfaces each need a different primer.
Exterior Walls
Exterior masonry and render walls need preparation, specialist primers, and weather-resistant finishes. Surface condition is assessed and coatings suited to the property’s exposure are chosen.
North and west-facing walls get extra consideration for breathable paint systems.
Feature Walls
Single feature walls painted in bold colours add visual interest to rooms. Feature walls are painted with careful finishing and clean edges where they meet adjacent surfaces.
See our feature wall painting page for colour selection and technique guidance.
Plasterboard Walls
New plasterboard needs sealing coats before finish paint. The right primers are applied to ensure even absorption and a consistent finish.
See our plasterboard painting page for new plaster guidance.
Textured and Artex Walls
Textured walls and Artex can be painted if the surface is sound and firmly bonded. Your decorator assesses condition and advises on whether painting is suitable.
Loose Artex is removed or skimmed before painting. See our ceiling painting page for Artex removal guidance.
How Wall Painting Works
1. Wall Assessment
Your decorator visits and assesses all wall surfaces, noting material types and condition, and plans the right primer for each area.
2. Surface Preparation
Walls are cleaned, cracks are filled, and surfaces are sanded where rough. Old or peeling paint is removed to a consistent standard.
3. Primer Application
The right primer is applied to each surface type: breathable primer on lime plaster, standard primer on plasterboard, masonry primer on exterior walls.
4. Paint Application
Paint is applied with consistent technique. Edges are cut in precisely and rollers are used on large open surfaces.
5. Finish Inspection
All surfaces are inspected for coverage and finish consistency. Touch-ups are completed before we leave.

Wall Painting Costs in Surrey
Prices below are estimates only. Every wall is different. Call 01483 930151 for a precise quote.
Wall Area
Larger areas cost less per square metre than small areas. Interior wall painting typically costs between £25 and £50 per square metre. Exterior wall painting typically costs between £20 and £45 per square metre.
Surface Condition
Walls requiring significant repair or preparation cost more than sound surfaces. Textured walls cost more than smooth walls. Pebble-dashed panels on 1930s semis in Hersham need breathable masonry paint — standard exterior emulsion causes blistering on these surfaces.
Paint System
Standard trade paint is the most economical option. Specialist or heritage paint systems cost more per litre. Typical ranges: a single room interior (1930s semi) runs £250–£450; a full interior of four rooms runs £800–£1,400; an exterior repaint on a large detached runs £2,000–£4,000+.
