Lincoln Home Renovation Services
Full Interior Renovation
A full interior renovation means every room finished to the same standard in the right sequence. We work in coordination with other trades, fitting our schedule around plastering, joinery, and tiling where needed.
Surface preparation is where renovations are won or lost. New plaster needs time to dry and a proper sealing coat before any topcoat is applied — skipping that step leads to flaking within months. Our interior painting service covers all surfaces in detail.
Kitchen and Bathroom
Kitchens and bathrooms need moisture-resistant finishes that hold up under steam and regular cleaning. Specialist products are used in both rooms as standard — not optional upgrades.
Cabinet painting is included where required. See our kitchen cabinet painting and bathroom painting pages for detail.
Pre-Sale Refurbishment
A freshly decorated home sells faster and for more money. Buyers form an impression in the first few minutes — scuffed walls, tired woodwork, and discoloured ceilings cost you at the negotiating table.
We work with homeowners preparing to sell across Lincoln, from Monks Road terraces to detached homes in Nettleham and Washingborough.
Extensions, Conversions and Period Properties
Extension and Loft Conversion
New extensions and loft conversions create a mix of surfaces in one space. Plasterboard walls and ceilings, new joinery, and sometimes timber beams or brickwork all need different preparation before painting.
Bare plasterboard gets a sealing coat first. New timber gets a primer before gloss or eggshell is applied. Exposed brick or blockwork gets a suitable masonry primer. The exterior painting service covers any rendered or clad extension exterior.
Period Property Restoration
Lincoln has a large stock of Victorian and Georgian properties, particularly around the Cathedral Quarter, Bailgate, and the Monks Road corridor. Renovation work in these buildings often involves original lime plaster walls, cornicing, picture rails, and ceiling roses.
Lime plaster is softer and more alkaline than modern plaster and needs a compatible primer before topcoating. Cornicing and ceiling roses are cleaned, cracks filled, and detail preserved. See our period property painting service for more detail.
How Our Home Renovation Process Works
1. Site Visit
Your decorator visits the property, assesses the scope of the renovation, and notes any surface types or access considerations.
2. Written Quote
You receive a fixed-price quote covering every room and surface in the project.
3. Programme Agreed
Your decorator agrees a start date and a sequence of rooms that fits around your renovation schedule and other trades.
4. Surface Preparation
Every surface is properly prepared before painting begins. This step is non-negotiable.
5. Painting and Completion
Rooms are painted in sequence, inspected on completion, and any touch-ups are made before we leave.

Home Renovation Costs in Lincoln
Prices below are estimates only. Every renovation is different. Call 01522 457080 for a precise quote.
Scope of Rooms
More rooms mean more time and materials. Typical ranges: Victorian terrace full interior repaint on Monks Road (three to four rooms): £3,500 to £5,000. Detached home in Nettleham or Washingborough (five to seven rooms): £7,000 to £10,000 and above.
Surface Condition and Type
New plaster needs a sealing coat; original lime plaster needs specialist preparation; poor existing paintwork may need sanding or stripping — each adds time and cost.
Period conversion near the Cathedral (four rooms, mixed surfaces): £6,500 to £9,500. We also cover plasterboard painting as a standalone service.
Period Features
Cornicing, ceiling roses, picture rails, and sash windows all take longer than plain modern surfaces. Pre-sale refurbishment of a 1960s semi in Bracebridge Heath (four rooms): £4,500 to £6,500.
For complete painting and decorating, see our house painting service.
On renovation jobs, the preparation phase typically accounts for 30 to 40 percent of the total labour time. Cutting it short always shows in the finished result. Call 01522 457080 to discuss your project and get a fixed quote.
