About this service

What this service involves

Exterior woodwork — windows, doors, fascias, soffits and bargeboards — takes the worst of the weather, and once the paint starts to fail, the timber underneath doesn't take long to follow. A painter scrapes back the failing coating, treats any bare timber, primes and finishes with a durable exterior system. Tell us what needs doing and we'll help connect you with a local professional.

Why use a professional

The benefit of getting it done properly

Practical reasons a professional finish is worth it for this kind of work.

  • Weatherproof finish

    Exterior-grade systems shed rain and protect the timber underneath.

  • Bare timber treated

    Exposed wood primed and treated before the topcoat goes on.

  • Stops rot early

    Peeling paint caught before moisture gets into the timber.

  • Crisp detail

    Neat finish around putty, sashes and mouldings.
