The Staircase Painting Process
1. Site Visit and Access Plan
Use the site visit to review the material, moisture and coating condition, repairs, access and compatibility of the proposed finish, along with occupied areas and access.
2. Surface Preparation
The written scope should state the preparation for the material, moisture and coating condition, repairs, access and compatibility of the proposed finish, including any repairs that are excluded or need another trade.
3. Staircase Wall
Identify the included walls, old coatings or coverings, cracks and edge details. Record preparation, the staircase finish and any sample or pattern reference in writing.
4. Balusters and Joinery
Identify each timber or joinery component, previous coating, wear, joints and repair needs. The staircase scope should state preparation, products and excluded fittings.
5. Risers and Treads
Inspect tread and riser wear, old coatings, joints and any retained floor finish. State preparation, coating boundaries, access restrictions and return-to-use guidance in the scope. Stairs in a shared house wear fastest, so see HMO decorating for shared stairs and landings.
Request a Project Quote
For stair treads and risers, the scope should also state access restrictions, drying between coats and when the staircase can return to use.
