Cramlington was designated a new town in 1958 and has grown steadily since, so its housing spans several decades, with 1960s layouts through to recent developments.
Estate housing from several decades
Because Cramlington's homes span different building eras, the decorating needs vary. Older estate houses may have textured ceilings, dated wallpaper and tired woodwork, while newer ones often need only a fresh, tougher finish. Plain brick, render and UPVC exteriors usually call for just cleaning and repainting of timber trim, doors, fascias and gates.
The town also has shops, business parks and other commercial premises, where decorating has to fit around staff and customers. For homes, we focus on preparation and on colour that suits modern open rooms as well as traditional ones.
Refreshing estate homes
Many estate homes respond well to a full refresh: new colour on the walls, fresh ceilings, woodwork brought back to a bright finish and a repainted front door. On houses built over the past decades, preparation usually means sanding gloss, filling small dents and sealing any stains, for example from old leaks that have been repaired.
Businesses in and around the town can use the same approach on a larger scale, with extra planning around access and opening hours. We choose washable finishes for high-traffic areas and discuss drying time and odour, so that premises can reopen quickly. Whether the building is a home or a unit, honest advance planning avoids delays.
