Residential Decorating
Exterior Painting
Exterior painting protects exposed surfaces while improving the presentation of a property. JC Decorators assesses the condition of render, masonry and exterior woodwork first, then plans preparation and coating work around the surface and suitable weather conditions.

Preparation process
Surfaces are inspected for loose paint, chalking, cracking, contamination and signs that the existing coating has failed. Painting over an unstable surface can shorten the life of the new finish.
Preparation can include cleaning, scraping, sanding, filling and priming exposed areas. Access requirements and weather conditions are considered when the work is scheduled.
Finish and materials considerations
Exterior coatings must be compatible with the substrate and suitable for exposure to weather. Masonry, timber and metal details may each require different preparation and products.
Colour choice can affect the appearance of the frontage, while the condition and texture of render affect how even the completed surface will look. These factors are discussed when the work is assessed.
