Sage green door, Swansea
Tired UPVC composite front door resprayed in sage green eggshell against cream render. Matt black furniture retained. Done in a morning with no disruption to the neighbour next door.
A single tired composite front door on a Swansea Victorian terrace. The owner wanted a softer, characterful colour to lift the cream-rendered frontage without replacing a door that was structurally perfect.
The surfaces we sprayed.
Why Sage green.
Sage green is one of the best heritage choices for a period frontage — it's soft, traditional and pairs naturally with cream render and matt black ironmongery. We sprayed it in eggshell for a subtle, low-maintenance finish.
The prep behind the finish.
Every surface was washed with industrial degreaser, sanded to key the plastic, and wiped down with isopropyl alcohol. Glass, seals, hardware and brickwork were fully masked, a two-pack adhesion primer was applied, then three coats of UV-stable Kolorbond colour. The preparation is around 70% of the work and the reason a respray lasts.
How it changed the property.
Masked, prepped and sprayed in a single morning with no disruption to the neighbouring terrace. The matt black furniture was refitted and the door was back in use the same day, transforming the look of the whole entrance.
The frames and glazing units were structurally sound — the only problem was the colour. Respraying kept perfectly good double glazing in place and delivered a factory-style finish for a fraction of the cost of replacement, in days rather than weeks, with no scaffolding and no mess.
