Great exteriors start with solid preparation. We wash down, remove failed coatings, and treat algae/mould. Cracks and spalls are repaired with compatible fillers and mortar systems. Bare areas are primed to suit the substrate and exposure.
- Pressure washing and degreasing
- Cut out and fill cracks, rake out and re-point where needed
- Stabilise friable surfaces
- Spot-prime bare and rust-inhibited areas
We handle all common exteriors:
- Masonry/render, pebbledash and brick
- Timber fascias, soffits and windows
- Metalwork: gates, railings, cladding
Every substrate gets the right primers and fillers for adhesion and longevity. Site kept tidy with daily clean-downs and protection to glazing, paths and planting.
Masonry & Render
Breathable masonry paints or elastomerics depending on movement and exposure. Hairline crack-bridging where required. System includes sealer/stabiliser, two finish coats.
Timber
Microporous systems that allow timber to breathe. Spot prime knots and end grain; fill, sand and finish with opaque or translucent coatings for UV and moisture resistance.
Metal & Cladding
Abrade and de-rust, apply appropriate primers (including zinc-rich where specified), then durable topcoats. For cladding, use high-adhesion systems suitable for factory finishes.
We choose the safest, most efficient access for each project:
- Scaffold or alloy towers for full elevations
- MEWPs for reach and speed with minimal disruption
- Rope access for complex areas where appropriate
Neighbours and public thoroughfares managed with barriers and signage.
Safety is embedded in our work:
- Site-specific RAMS and permits where required
- Harness and rescue plans for MEWP/rope operations
- Daily briefings and tidy, segregated work zones
Supervision ensures quality, programme and compliance.
We plan around the weather and substrate condition to ensure performance:
- Moisture readings and surface temperature checks
- Flexible programming to hit dry, mild windows
- Specified cure times between coats
We protect freshly coated areas from rain and overnight dew.
Maintenance and warranty:
- Typical repaint cycles: masonry 7–12 yrs, timber 3–6 yrs, metal 5–10 yrs (exposure dependent)
- Manufacturer-backed systems available where specified
- We provide colour schedules and touch-up guidance at handover
Typical cycles: masonry 7–12 years, timber 3–6, metal 5–10 depending on exposure and colour.
Yes. We can provide manufacturer-backed warranties when systems are specified and applied to their standards.
We plan around forecast and on-site readings. If weather turns, we reschedule affected tasks to protect quality.
