Here’s How It Works

1. Site visit and moisture assessment

We check existing paint condition, tile adhesion, woodwork, and ventilation. We identify any mould, damp patches, or failing areas before painting begins.

2. Mould treatment

Any mould present is treated with a fungicidal wash. We allow adequate dwell time before rinsing. Skipping this step means mould regrows under the new paint.

3. Surface preparation

Peeling paint is removed. Bare plaster or board is primed. Tiles are degreased and abraded where tile painting is in scope. Woodwork is sanded and spot-primed.

4. Paint application

We apply moisture-resistant primer across all surfaces. Finish coats follow with adequate drying time between each. Ceiling is finished first, then walls, then woodwork.

5. Final check

We inspect coverage, check for any missed areas, and confirm the room is properly ventilated before closing the job. You can shower again after 48 to 72 hours.

Bathroom Painting FAQs

What paint do you use in bathrooms?

We use moisture-resistant emulsion on walls and ceilings, paired with a mould-inhibiting primer. For woodwork, we use a hard-wearing gloss or satin finish. The specific products vary by job. We specify on site based on surface condition and your finish preference.

How do you treat mould before painting?

We apply a fungicidal wash to all affected areas and allow it to dwell before rinsing. Painting over mould without treatment causes it to grow back through the new coat. Treatment is included as standard in every bathroom job.

Can you paint over existing bathroom tiles?

Yes, in most cases. The tiles need to be sound, firmly adhered, and free from grease. We use specialist tile primer and coating designed for wet areas. We assess tiles on site and advise honestly. If the condition is not right for painting, we will tell you.

How long before I can shower after painting?

Allow 48 to 72 hours after the final coat before showering. The paint may feel dry sooner, but it needs time to cure fully before being exposed to steam.

Do you handle mould on bathroom ceilings?

Yes. Bathroom ceiling mould is one of the most common jobs we handle in Chesterfield. We treat the mould, apply mould-inhibiting primer, and finish with a moisture-resistant ceiling paint. Persistent mould may indicate a ventilation issue. We advise on this at the site visit.

Will you do bathroom and ceiling painting together?

Yes. Many customers combine bathroom and ceiling painting in a single visit. Mention it when you call and we will quote the combined scope.

Is wallpaper suitable for bathrooms?

In most bathrooms, paint is a better long-term choice than wallpaper. Moisture causes paper to lift at seams and behind fixtures. See our plasterboard painting page for detail on surface preparation in wet rooms.

How far in advance should I book?

We are typically booked two to four weeks ahead. For spring and summer, enquire earlier. Call 01246 607076 to check current availability.

Do you do outdoor house painting?

Yes. Outdoor painting and exterior painting are the same thing. Chesterfield Decorators handle everything from individual outdoor surfaces — a garden wall, a set of window frames, a fence — through to full outdoor house repaints. If it’s outside, we paint it. Call 01246 607076 to discuss.
