Interior Painting for Malvern homes
Malvern is a town of solid Victorian and Edwardian houses built into a hillside, which means tall rooms, generous cornices and a lot of original woodwork. Interiors here take longer than a modern house of the same square footage, and Kevin quotes them honestly rather than pretending a three-storey Great Malvern villa is a two-day job.
- Great Malvern, Malvern Wells, Barnards Green and Malvern Link
- High ceilings, cornices and picture rails cut in by hand from a tower
- Breathable finishes used where solid walls need to move moisture
How Kevin runs a interior painting job
Home visit and written quote
Kevin walks the rooms with you, measures up, checks the condition of the plaster and woodwork, and talks through colours, sheen levels and the order of work. You get a clear written quote listing each room and what is included — no verbal estimates and no pressure.
Protecting the room
Furniture is moved to the centre or out of the room, floors are covered with dust sheets and hard protection where needed, and sockets, switches, carpets and radiators are masked. Doors are sealed off so dust stays where the work is.
Preparation
Nail holes and cracks are filled, old flaking paint scraped back, walls sanded flat, gaps between skirting, architrave and coving caulked, and bare or patched areas spot-primed. Anything glossy is keyed so the new paint grips.
Ceilings, walls, then woodwork
Ceilings go first, then walls in two full coats, then skirting, architrave, doors and window boards cut in by brush. Working in that order keeps the crisp lines at the top of the skirting and around the coving.
Snagging and tidy up
Kevin walks the room with you under daylight and lamplight, touches in anything either of you spots, refits sockets and handles, puts the furniture back and takes all waste and empty tins away with him.
