In Bampton and the wider Oxfordshire area, the average we quote is around £700–£950 for a standard 3-bed semi, including ceilings, walls, woodwork, spindles and the stairwell. The big variables are ceiling height over the stairwell, the condition of existing woodwork and whether spindles need stripping or just a refresh.

Tall stairwell walls, awkward access over the steps, dozens of spindles and high-traffic woodwork all benefit from proper scaffolding, the right primers and a steady hand.
