House Painters in Coventry
Godiva Decorators are house painters covering Coventry and its surrounding premium suburbs, including Earlsdon, Styvechale, Kenilworth, and Royal Leamington Spa.
- Full interior repaints across all rooms and floors
- Complete exterior repaints covering masonry, woodwork, and metalwork
- Combined interior and exterior projects managed as a single programme
- Period properties with original plaster, cornicing, and timber joinery
- Pre-sale whole-house preparations
Over a decade of work on Coventry properties means we understand how both sides of a house need to be approached. Cheylesmore’s 1930s-50s interwar semis are typical whole-house repaint commissions. The construction mix of post-war rendered walls and original joinery means two different preparation approaches run in parallel.

House Painting Services
We manage whole-house projects covering interior, exterior, and period property work as a single coordinated programme.
Full Interior Repaint
A whole-house interior repaint covers every room from top floor to ground floor. We paint ceilings, walls, and all woodwork including skirting boards, architraves, door frames, and picture rails.
Period properties in Earlsdon and Kenilworth require careful preparation at every stage. For the full detail on interior work, see our interior painting page.
Exterior Walls and Woodwork
A full exterior repaint covers masonry, rendered walls, timber windows, fascias, soffits, gutters, and front door. These are typically done in sequence, working from the top of the building down.
For the full detail on exterior work, see our exterior painting page.
Coordinated Schedule
Interior and exterior work on the same property requires coordination. Drying times for exterior coatings must be respected.
We plan the order of work at the quotation stage. The schedule is agreed before any brush touches a surface.
Period Properties
Earlsdon Victorian and Edwardian terraces, Styvechale’s large detached properties, and Kenilworth’s premium period stock all have original features that need individual attention.
We work on period properties regularly. The preparation methods and paint systems differ from modern construction.
Pre-Sale Preparation
A freshly decorated house presents better in photographs and at viewings. We work to tight timescales when properties are going to market.
Interior and exterior are coordinated to completion before the property is listed.

Our House Painting Process
1. Site Visit and Scoping
We visit the property and assess both interior and exterior surfaces. We agree the full scope, flag any repair work needed, and discuss the sequence of trades.
2. Preparation Phase
Interior prep runs first while the exterior dries from any cleaning or repair work. Surfaces are primed, cracks are filled, and period features are checked.
3. Exterior Application
Masonry, woodwork, and metalwork are painted in sequence from the top down. We work around the weather forecast. Two finish coats are standard.
4. Interior Application
Each room is completed from ceiling to skirting board. Ceilings first, walls second, woodwork last. Each coat gets adequate drying time.
5. Final Check and Walkthrough
We inspect the complete property, interior and exterior, before closing. Touch-ups are completed and you walk through the finished work with us.

House Painting Costs in Coventry
Prices below are estimates only. Every property is different. Call 024 7542 6652 for a precise quote.
What Drives the Price
Property size. A 2-bed post-war terrace in Canley has considerably less wall area than a 4-bed Kenilworth detached. More area means more materials and more time.
Surface condition. Properties that have not been decorated for many years need more preparation.
Combined or staged. Combining interior and exterior in one project is more efficient than staging them separately.
Typical Ranges
- Post-war terrace (Canley, 1940s-60s, interior and exterior): £3,700 to £5,600.
- 1940s semi-detached (Cheylesmore, interior and exterior): £4,500 to £7,000.
- Victorian detached (Kenilworth, 4-5 bed, period features): £9,500 to £15,500.
Trade Insight
Cheylesmore interwar semis often need both interior and exterior at the same time. Doing both together avoids double setup costs and produces a consistent finish on a property that looks renewed throughout.
