Shop Front Spraying in Portsmouth

Pricing typically falls somewhere between roughly £25 and £45 per square metre, with smaller, straightforward jobs sometimes priced nearer £15 to £30 per square metre and larger or more detailed fronts running higher. A single retail unit frontage often lands somewhere in the region of £800 to £2,500 in total, though bigger units, multiple shutters, or more complex colour work can push that figure up.

The main things that move the price are the size of the property, the condition of the existing surface, and how much preparation it needs before spraying. A shop front with rust, old flaking paint, or damaged panels will cost more to prepare than one that's simply faded. Choosing shop front spraying over a full rebuild can also save money in the long run, since you avoid the cost of new frames and glazing entirely. We only use professional spray painting equipment, never a basic garden sprayer, and fresh paint alone can transform how a premises looks from the street.

This is a rough guide only, and the actual cost varies depending on your property. We always confirm a firm price after an initial consultation, so you know exactly what you're paying before any work starts. As a shop front spraying company, we would rather under-promise on price and over-deliver on the finish.

We're proud to be a trusted spraying shop front company across Kent, Surrey and Sussex, and we only ever deliver a high-quality finish, regardless of project size. We use high-quality coatings and modern coating systems built for UK weather, meaning rain, frost, UV exposure and temperature swings shouldn't cause the finish to fade, peel or crack early. Our specialist coatings are chosen to protect exterior surfaces and give long-term protection against everything the British climate throws at a property. Most of our shop front spraying finishes carry a working lifespan of ten to fifteen years, and with reasonable upkeep, that can stretch to twenty years or more. We only use trade paint built for exterior use, never anything off the shelf.

What You Can Expect From Every Finish

• A hard-wearing, weather-resistant finish built for daily wear and tear, with genuine weather resistance tested for UK conditions
• Strong adhesion coatings that resist fading and peeling, giving high-quality results project after project
• The same high-quality finish, whether it's one door or an entire frontage, backed by clear communication throughout

How We Assess Every Job Before We Start

We start every job with a proper assessment of your property, not a guess over the phone, so we can work efficiently without wasting a single visit. A freshly sprayed shop front creates a positive first impression the moment someone walks past, and it's a simple way to keep a professional image without major building work. It can also shift customer perception overnight, turning a tired unit into one that looks genuinely cared for by a professional spray painting company.

There were around 5.7 million private sector businesses operating in the UK in 2025, and 99.8% of them are small or medium-sized. For most of those firms, a full shop front rebuild simply isn't in the budget, which is exactly why a cost-effective alternative like spraying has become common on high streets and retail parks alike.

Retail remains one of the UK's biggest employers, and foot traffic still depends heavily on how a premises looks from the street. From high street units to retail parks, the right colours help a premises stand out from the competition next door. A fresh, professional shop front helps you compete for potential customers and brings more customers through the door, whether you're on a busy high street or tucked into a retail park unit. It's a fast, affordable way to boost kerb appeal on any high street, and a well-presented shop front spraying job often pays for itself in extra footfall alone. If you're comparing spray painting against a full rebuild, the cost difference alone usually makes the decision easy.

If your shop front is looking tired, faded, or out of step with your brand, we can usually put that right in a day or two, not a month of building work.
