Internal Door Painting
small repainting jobs on suitable internal door leaves
Common situations
Rubbing, loose hinges and latch problems should be identified before painting. Extra paint can make tight clearances worse. Suitable hardware repairs can be requested separately, but a new finish is not a substitute for correcting an underlying door movement issue.
Colour, sheen and the condition beneath the coating all influence the result. An agreed repaint should not be described as factory refinishing. Matching neighbouring aged surfaces exactly cannot be guaranteed just by choosing a paint colour with the same name.
Small marks on a sound door can suit preparation and recoating, while peeling layers or damaged material may need a different approach. Photos should show the whole leaf as well as individual chips so the overall condition is understood.
Service overview
An internal door may need to remain open between coating stages. Tell Fix Nik whether it serves a bathroom, bedroom or another frequently used room. Practical access arrangements matter when the room cannot simply be taken out of use.
List whether the request covers one face, both faces or accessible edges. A door frame and surrounding architraves are separate surfaces. Defining those boundaries helps keep a small internal-door painting quote clear before preparation begins.
Timber, coated composite and previously painted surfaces do not always take the same preparation. Send product information where available. A coating choice should follow compatibility checks rather than assuming any household paint can be applied over the existing finish.
The agreed service covers small internal-door painting jobs, compatible surface preparation and agreed finish. Exclusions: Fire/smoke door certification or modifications, exterior coating systems, hazardous paint stripping, door replacement.
How it works
Show both sides of the internal door, its edges, hardware and the current coating in good light.
Door material, coating adhesion and mechanical operation need review before a new finish is agreed.
Protect suitable hardware and adjacent finishes, prepare compatible surfaces and apply the agreed internal-door coating.
Confirm the Chum Creek address, access contact and preparation. Mention anything that limits safe handling or use of the space before scheduling.
Follow the coating guidance before closing against stops or cleaning the finish. Paint does not correct a door that rubs or will not latch.
