Bathroom Painting Services


Moisture-Resistant Coatings
Standard emulsion is the wrong choice for a bathroom. It absorbs moisture from showers and baths and peels within months.
We use moisture-resistant and mould-inhibiting primers on every bathroom job as standard. This matters most in older stone cottages in Bourton-on-the-Water and Chipping Campden, where thick limestone walls and small windows mean damp air lingers longer.
Original Lime Plaster Preparation
Many Cotswolds bathrooms in listed properties still have original lime plaster walls. Lime plaster is breathable and needs a compatible primer before any finish coat.
We use lime-compatible primer systems on these surfaces. This keeps the plaster breathable and ensures the paint bonds properly. Skipping this step causes peeling, even with quality bathroom paint.
Tile Painting
Some clients want to refresh their tiles without a full retile. We prepare and prime the tile surface correctly before applying specialist tile paint.
This suits holiday let owners in Stow-on-the-Wold and Bourton who want a fresh bathroom for the new season. We advise on how long the finish will last and whether it suits the tile type before we start.
Ceiling and Woodwork
Bathroom ceilings collect steam and need the same moisture-resistant treatment as walls. We paint ceilings as part of every bathroom repaint.
Skirting boards, window frames, and panelled doors are finished in satin or eggshell. Period-style panel doors in Georgian townhouses in Cirencester and Tetbury are hand-painted to keep the detail clean.
Bathroom Refresh for Holiday Lets
The Cotswolds holiday let market is large. Premium cottages in Chipping Campden and Bourton-on-the-Water can charge £300 to £600 per night, and a tired bathroom affects occupancy.
We work between seasons to refresh bathroom paintwork on schedule. Remote owners brief us directly, and we send photos when the job is done. No on-site supervision needed.
Here’s How It Works
1. Site Visit and Surface Assessment
We inspect the bathroom finish, check the plaster type, and look for mould, peeling, or damage. We confirm the right primer and paint system for each surface.
2. Surface Preparation
Any mould is treated before painting begins. Loose or flaking paint is removed, cracks and gaps are filled with flexible filler, and lime plaster is primed with a breathable, compatible primer.
3. First Coat Application
Moisture-resistant primer is applied to walls and ceiling. This seals the surface and gives the finish coat something to stick to. Woodwork is primed separately.
4. Finish Coats
Two coats go on walls and ceiling. Woodwork gets two coats of satin or eggshell. We allow proper drying time between coats.
5. Final Check
We inspect all surfaces for missed areas or uneven coverage. Edges and junctions around tiles and fixtures are checked. We walk through the completed bathroom with you before we leave.
Bathroom Painting Costs in the Cotswolds
Prices below are estimates only. Every property is different. Call 01285 708711 for a precise quote.
What Drives the Price
Surface condition, room size, and scope are the three main factors. Original lime plaster with cracks or past moisture damage needs more preparation, and mould treatment adds time before painting can start.
A large Georgian bathroom in Cirencester takes longer than a compact cottage bathroom in Northleach or Fairford. Adding woodwork, tile painting, or window frames increases the cost beyond walls and ceiling only.
Typical Price Ranges
A compact bathroom in a stone cottage (walls and ceiling only) typically costs £350 to £500. A full bathroom repaint in a Georgian townhouse (walls, ceiling, and woodwork) typically costs £500 to £700.
A bathroom refresh with tile painting for a holiday let runs from £600 to £850. Call 01285 708711 to arrange a site visit and written quote.
