Inspect the substrate
We check adhesion, moisture, cracks and the condition of earlier coatings.
Preparation that supports a durable finish
Exterior coatings perform best when the substrate is dry, stable and properly prepared. The specification is chosen for the surface and its exposure rather than colour alone.
How exterior decorating is carried out
Prepare thoroughly
Loose material is removed, surfaces are cleaned and local defects are made sound.
Mask and prime
Adjacent masonry and fittings are protected before suitable primer is applied where required.
Build the finish
Coats are applied evenly in suitable weather, followed by a detailed final inspection.
What influences the specification
Careful preparation is what allows the finished coating to look clean and perform consistently.
- Surface material and previous paint
- Weather exposure
- Moisture and drying conditions
- Required colour and sheen
