Reviews
From our happy customers.
The team did an outstanding job painting both the exterior of our house and our living room/dining room space. They were incredibly neat and professional throughout the whole process. The attention to detail on our Victorian cornicing was remarkable, and they helped us choose the perfect shade of grey for outside. Couldn't be happier with the results.
Margaret, Cleadon
Had our master bedroom and en-suite bathroom painted by this fantastic crew. They moved all the furniture carefully, protected everything properly, and did a beautiful job with the cutting in. The finish is flawless, and they even helped fix some cracks in the ceiling before painting. Would definitely recommend!
David, Cleadon
So pleased with the work done in our kitchen and hallway. The team suggested a lovely wipeable paint for the kitchen which has proved perfect with the kids around. They worked quickly but carefully, and the finish is exactly what we wanted. They even came back to touch up a small mark without any fuss. Great service from start to finish.

Interior Brick Transformation
Many Cleadon homes have exposed brick walls full of character. Sometimes these walls don't match new interior designs. We can paint brick walls while keeping their natural texture. We use special breathable paint that lets the brick work normally. You can choose white or any modern color you like.
Popcorn Ceiling Removal
Many homes built in the 1960s-1980s have popcorn ceilings that look old-fashioned. We can remove these bumpy ceilings and make them smooth. Then we paint them to look fresh and new. This makes your room look taller and brighter. It also adds value to your home.

Popular Colours in Cleadon
Cleadon homeowners are choosing colours that match the area's stone buildings and new homes. These colours also work well with our seaside location and green spaces. Here are the most popular colours in Cleadon homes:
Exterior Colours
Sage Green is perfect for larger homes with gardens in Cleadon. This soft, natural green matches local sandstone and helps the house blend with its garden. You'll see this colour often on homes along Whitburn Road and The Close, where big gardens make it look even better.
Midnight Navy is becoming more common on Victorian houses around Front Street and West Park Road. This deep blue looks great on outside walls and front doors. It gives these older homes a classic look while keeping them modern.
Interior Colours
Warm White is very popular inside Cleadon's newer homes. It helps rooms feel brighter and bigger, which is great for rooms that don't get much sun. This colour works well with any furniture style and is perfect for open-plan homes where rooms flow together.
Mocha Mousse is a favourite for living rooms and studies, especially in bigger homes near Whitburn Road. This warm brown makes rooms feel cosy during our cold North East winters. It looks good with both old wooden furniture and modern pieces.
Dusky Blue is common in Cleadon's bedrooms and bathrooms. This peaceful colour suits our seaside setting perfectly. It works really well in attic bedrooms, making these spaces feel calm and bright.
These colours capture Cleadon's special character. They mix seaside feelings with traditional building styles and modern design. These shades work well in both old and new homes, giving a timeless look that still feels fresh.
Exterior Painting Services
Cleadon is a beautiful village with both old stone houses and modern homes. The way a house looks from the outside is very important. It needs to look good and stay protected from damage. We know Cleadon's buildings well, from old Victorian houses to new builds. The salty air from the North Sea can be tough on paint. We've learned the best ways to make paint last longer in this coastal area.
Masonry Painting
Many Cleadon homes have stone walls or rendered surfaces. We use special breathable paints made just for these walls. First, we check the walls carefully for any problems. Then we fix these issues before adding weather-proof paint. This keeps your home protected while keeping its special look.
Fence and Gate Painting
Your fences and gates are just as important as your house. We use top-quality paints and stains that can handle Cleadon's changing weather. Whether you have wooden fences or metal gates, we choose the right products. These protect against rust, rot, and bad weather while making everything look great.
Window Frame Painting
Good-looking window frames help protect your home. We carefully prepare each frame and fix any damage we find. We use special paints that work well on both wood and metal frames. Our paint job keeps your frames safe from coastal weather and matches your house perfectly.
Garage Door Painting
A fresh coat of paint on your garage door can make your whole house look better. We paint all types of garage doors - metal, wood, or composite. We prepare the surface carefully and use the right techniques. This gives you a smooth, attractive finish that makes your home stand out.
Before we start any job, we look carefully at what your property needs. We think about local weather and what makes your home special. Our work always looks great and protects your Cleadon home for years to come.
Local Expertise
We've lived in the North East our whole lives. This means we really understand what Cleadon homeowners need when taking care of their homes. We know exactly how to make local properties look their best.
Weather-Smart Solutions
Cleadon is close to the North Sea, which creates special challenges for houses here. We get between 850-1000mm of rain each year. The coastal winds can make paint wear down faster. We use special exterior paints that can handle our wet winters. The air here is about 80% humid, and temperatures go up and down a lot. Our paint choices keep homes looking good and protected all year.
Understanding Cleadon's Different House Types
Our village has many different types of houses. Some are fancy Victorian homes near Front Street. Others are 1930s semi-detached houses with rough pebbledash walls. We know how to work with each type of house. About 75% of people here own their homes. They want quality work that keeps their house's special features looking good.
High-Quality Solutions for Quality Homes
People in Cleadon often have good incomes and want the best for their homes. We use top-quality paints that look great and last long in our local weather. We can work on both modern and old houses. We know how to get the perfect finish every time.
Local Color Know-How
Being near the coast affects which colors look best on houses here. We know which shades work well in Cleadon's natural light. We can help pick colors for old Victorian houses or modern homes. All our choices fit in with how the village looks.
Community-Based Service
Cleadon has about 5,000 people and feels like one big family. People here want painters they can trust. We've built our good name by helping local homeowners. Whether they're selling through Andrew Craig estate agents or fixing up their forever home, we know what they need.
We've spent years working on Cleadon homes. We know how to paint outside during the short periods of good weather. We're experts at making the inside of old houses look perfect. We don't just paint houses - we help protect Cleadon homes from our special coastal weather while keeping them beautiful.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the estimated cost to have my Sunderland home painted?
The cost changes based on a few things. We look at how big your space is, what condition the walls are in, what type of paint you need, and how much prep work is needed. We also consider if it's inside or outside painting. Older homes in Cleadon might need special care. Newer homes might need less work. We'll give you a free quote after we look at your home.
How long can I expect a painting project to take?
The time depends on how much work is needed. One room usually takes 1-2 days to prep and paint. A whole house inside might take 5-7 days. Outside jobs depend on the weather and house size. We'll tell you exactly how long it should take after we see your space.
Are you insured?
Yes, we have full insurance. This covers both your property and our work. We can show you our insurance papers if you'd like to see them.
Do you offer free estimates for painting services in Sunderland?
Yes, we give free estimates with no pressure to book. We cover Cleadon, Sunderland, and nearby areas. We'll look at what you need and give you a detailed price list.
Do you handle the preparation work, such as sanding and priming, before painting?
Yes, we do all the prep work ourselves. This includes cleaning, sanding, filling holes, fixing damp spots, and putting on primer. We take extra care with old houses in Cleadon that have special features.
How do you protect my furniture and home from paint splatters?
We use lots of covers to protect your home. We put down dust sheets and plastic covers. We move furniture or cover it completely. We also seal off other rooms to stop dust from spreading.
What if it rains on the outdoor painting day?
We check the weather forecast carefully. If it's going to rain, we'll change the date. We won't paint in bad weather because it won't look good.
Do I need to be home while the painting is in progress?
No, you don't need to stay home. Once you're happy with our plan, we can work while you're out. We'll keep your home safe and can arrange how to handle the keys.
Should I move my furniture and belongings before you start painting?
Moving small items and valuable things helps. But don't worry about big furniture - we can move that for you and keep it protected.
