What moves the price
- Size of the job — one window frame is quick, a full frontage of door and windows takes a day
- Masking and preparation — glass, brick and sills are masked and the surface cleaned and keyed before spray painting
- Material — uPVC, timber, aluminium and metal each need a different primer and spray paint
- Weather — exterior spray painting needs a dry, mild day, and rain pushes jobs back
- Colour and finish — specialist colours and a textured finish can cost more than standard ones
- Access — upper-floor frames need ladders or a tower, which adds to the time
Home repair prices in the UK are up 6% over five years (ONS Consumer Price Inflation, Services for maintenance and repair, to 2026 August). Five years ago a typical spray painting would have cost about £270 — an estimate from today's guide price and that index, not a recorded price. Source: ONS MM23 D7DO →

How to pay less
- Spray painting several uPVC frames on one visit costs less per frame than separate jobs
- Choose a standard colour, which is cheaper than a specialist spray paint mix
- Clean frames and clear plants and furniture away from the spray painting area beforehand
Before you book
- In a conservation area or on a listed building, check with the council before changing the colour of frames
- Ask whether the spray paint is designed for uPVC and what guarantee comes with it
- Check the forecast, as exterior spray painting needs a dry day with little wind
- Move cars and garden furniture away from the area that will be spray painted
Spray Painting cost: questions people ask
£150–£500 per job, about £350 typical. A single window frame costs least; a door and several windows sprayed together costs most.
A frame or door takes one to three hours, and a whole frontage about a day, including masking.
Usually not, but a listed building or a home in a conservation area with an Article 4 direction may need consent. Check with the council first.
Yes, by a long way, if the frames are in good condition. Spraying changes the colour without replacing the window.
Frame repairs, new glass and kitchen cabinet resprays are priced separately. Ask whether masking, preparation and a second coat are in the spray painting price.
