One of the most searched questions in London is: "how much does it cost to paint a 3-bed house?" Here is a detailed, honest answer, built up room by room from the way we actually quote.
Interior Painting Costs for a 3-Bed House
For a typical 3-bedroom terrace or semi-detached house in North London, a full interior redecoration (all rooms, two coats, including woodwork) costs approximately:
- 3 bedrooms: £2,400–£4,200
- 2 reception rooms: £2,800–£4,000
- Hallway and landing: £800–£1,400
- Kitchen and bathroom: £1,200–£2,000
- Total: £7,200–£11,600 for standard specification
With Farrow & Ball or Premium Paint
Upgrading to Farrow & Ball or Little Greene throughout a 3-bed house adds approximately £800–£1,500 in material costs and typically some additional labour for the more demanding application. Total: £8,000–£13,000 for a premium specification. Our published guide range for a full three-bedroom interior is £5,500–£12,000; a build-up like this one lands at the top of it, and a premium specification throughout can take it just beyond.
What's Not Included
The above excludes: significant plaster repairs; specialist finishes (Venetian plaster, wallpaper hanging); exterior work. Each of these is quoted separately based on a site survey.
