Interior Painting
Our Cottam painting services cater to both new builds and traditional homes. Let's look at the most common rooms we paint and what makes each unique.
Living Rooms
Modern Cottam living rooms often have open floor plans. This needs smart painting choices to define each space:
- We use neutral colors that flow well between areas
- Matt finishes help hide wall imperfections
- We consider how natural light affects color from the large windows typical in local homes
Kitchens
Local kitchens come in modern and traditional styles. Each needs its own approach:
- Modern kitchens get tough, water-resistant paints
- Older wooden cabinets need special primers
- We often use semi-gloss paint for easy cleaning
Bedrooms
When painting Cottam bedrooms, we focus on:
- Creating peaceful color schemes in master bedrooms
- Using safe, low-VOC paints for children's rooms
- Adding feature walls with textures or patterns
Hallways & Stairs
These busy areas need extra care:
- We use tough paints that last longer
- Light colors help brighten narrow spaces
- Careful prep work on railings and woodwork
Common Projects
Full House Painting
We often do whole-house painting when:
- You're updating your home
- Getting ready to sell
- Just moved in
Special Finishes
Many Cottam homeowners ask for:
- Classic plaster effects in older homes
- Modern textured walls in new builds
- Custom paint designs for feature walls

Exterior Painting
Living in Cottam means your home faces unique painting challenges. Our modern housing estates and traditional countryside homes each need their own special approach. We understand both styles and know how to protect them.
Our Local Weather Matters
Cottam's damp climate means your exterior paint needs extra protection. We use moisture-resistant paints like Dulux Weathershield that stand up to our frequent rain. We also carefully plan project timing around local weather patterns to ensure perfect results.
Modern Home Solutions
Most local homes are newer builds with specific needs:
• We prep surfaces carefully for modern render materials
• Many homeowners choose stylish two-tone finishes
• We use breathable paints to prevent wall moisture problems
Special Features We Protect
Every local home has important elements needing expert care:
• UPVC windows and doors
• Rendered wall surfaces
• Decorative brickwork
• Wood trim and fascias
Weather-Ready Protection
Our rainy Lancashire weather demands tough paint solutions. We use high-quality acrylic latex paints because they:
• Stick better to exterior surfaces
• Flex with temperature changes
• Last longer in wet conditions
Our local expertise helps keep local homes looking beautiful while protecting them from Lancashire's challenging weather. We choose the right paints and techniques for your specific home style and location.
Contact us today to discuss your exterior painting needs and ensure your home is protected and looking its best!

Modern Developments
In modern developments like Cottam Meadow and The Paddocks, homeowners love elegant color combinations. Many use soft greys like Dulux's "Rock Salt" with white trim for a clean look. Living rooms often feature bold statement walls in colors like Farrow & Ball's "Hague Blue". This adds a touch of luxury while keeping the modern feel.
Older Properties
Older properties, like converted farmhouses, use colors that respect their history. Warm beiges such as Farrow & Ball's "Skimming Stone" create a welcoming feel. These colors work well with wooden beams and traditional features. Front doors often showcase rich heritage colors like Farrow & Ball's "Radicchio". These bold choices complement the natural stone and brickwork of older homes.
Two-Tone Color Schemes
Two-tone color schemes are becoming more popular in all local homes. In kitchens, many people choose darker colors for lower cabinets and lighter shades for upper ones. This style works especially well in the open-plan layouts of newer homes. It helps create a smooth flow between kitchen and living areas.
Feature Walls
Feature walls are still very popular in bedrooms and living spaces. Many use geometric patterns or botanical prints to add personality. Farrow & Ball's "Cornforth White" is a favorite base color. It provides an elegant background that suits both modern and traditional furniture.
Exterior Colors
For outside walls, many local homeowners choose white or cream with grey highlights. This timeless look boosts curb appeal and fits well with all the different house styles in the area.
