Why Paint Your Front Door
Front doors face constant exposure to rain, sun, and temperature changes. Newport’s coastal location intensifies these effects, causing paint to fade, crack, and peel faster than interior surfaces.
Protection and Longevity
Professional door painting prevents warping, rotting, and rusting by creating a protective barrier. This extends door lifespan significantly, saving money on replacements.
Property Value
A freshly painted front door increases property value. Estate agents consistently report that attractive entrances improve first impressions, helping properties sell faster. Many Newport homeowners coordinate door colours with their fence painting to create cohesive street-facing appearances.
Complete Exterior Updates
For complete exterior updates, many customers combine door painting with our house painting services including exterior wall painting and trim.
Popular Front Door Colours in Newport
Black
Classic choice working with all property styles. Particularly popular in Newport’s city centre and Caerleon, often coordinated with kitchen cabinet painting in matching contemporary tones.
Navy Blue
Modern alternative to black, adding depth without being too bold. Suits both traditional and contemporary homes.
Grey
Versatile neutral matching Newport’s mix of property types from Victorian terraces to new builds.

Traditional statement colour adding warmth and character. Works particularly well with brick properties.
Green
From sage to forest, green tones complement Newport’s surrounding countryside and work well with stone properties.

Door Types We Paint
We paint all types of front doors with specialist techniques and products for each material.
Wooden Doors
Solid timber and panel doors need specific preparation and microporous paints allowing wood to breathe.
Metal Doors
Steel and aluminium doors require anti-corrosion primers and flexible paints accommodating thermal expansion.
Composite Doors
Modern composite materials need specialist bonding primers and appropriate paint systems.
uPVC Doors
We use specialist uPVC paints that adhere to plastic surfaces without peeling.
For properties wanting complete exterior transformations, we also handle shed painting and deck painting to coordinate your entire outdoor aesthetic. Inside, our staircase painting service creates beautiful first impressions as guests enter.
Our Door Painting Process
1. Consultation and Quote
We assess your door type, discuss colour preferences, and provide detailed pricing. We explain preparation requirements and expected results.
2. Thorough Preparation
We remove door furniture (handles, knockers, letterboxes), clean surfaces, sand old paint, fill cracks, and apply appropriate primers. Preparation determines finish quality.
3. Professional Painting
We apply multiple thin coats of premium exterior paint, allowing proper drying between applications. Thin coats create smoother, longer-lasting finishes than thick single coats.
4. Hardware Reinstallation
We carefully reattach all door furniture once paint fully cures, ensuring smooth operation.
5. Final Inspection
We check coverage, finish quality, and door operation before cleaning up thoroughly.
