Front door spraying refinishes your existing composite, uPVC or timber door in any colour, in place, usually within a day. The door stays on its hinges, hardware is masked or removed, and the sprayed finish is dry enough to close and lock the same evening.
Your front door is the handshake of the house. When the colour dates or the surface fades — especially on composite doors whose gel coats dull over time — spraying delivers a brand-new-door look without touching the frame, locks or seals you already trust.
Door materials and how we treat them
Composite doors are the most common respray: their GRP skins take coatings beautifully once cleaned and keyed. uPVC doors follow the same system as window frames. Timber doors need existing loose coatings removed and may need minor filling — then take primer and topcoats just as well. In every case the door furniture is removed or masked, and glazing is protected.
The process
Assess the door
Material, condition and hardware are checked; colour and sheen agreed.
Remove or mask furniture
Handles, letterplates and glazing are removed or precision-masked.
Clean, degrease & key
The surface is prepared so the primer can bond permanently.
Prime
A primer matched to GRP, PVC or timber goes down first.
Spray topcoats
Even sprayed coats deliver the new colour with a factory-quality sheen.
Refit & hand back
Furniture goes back on, edges are checked, and the door is ready that evening.
Colour is the whole point
Sage green, anthracite, black, deep blue and burgundy lead the requests. Because the finish is sprayed, you can pick any RAL shade and any sheen — and match the door to newly sprayed windows or a garage door for a coordinated frontage. Our colour guide covers the combinations that work.
Frequently asked questions
Can you spray a composite door without removing it?+
Yes — doors are sprayed in place on their hinges. Hardware is removed or masked and the opening protected.
How soon can I close the door?+
The same day. Fast-curing coatings are touch-dry quickly, and doors can be closed and locked by evening.
Will the finish crack around the moulding details?+
No — sprayed coats follow the panel detail evenly and remain slightly flexible, unlike thick brushed paint which can bridge and crack.
Is it worth spraying rather than buying a new door?+
If the door is sound, yes: the transformation is total and the cost is a fraction of a quality replacement composite door.
