Painting external timber joinery across Christchurch

For coastal Christchurch properties in Mudeford and Highcliffe, we default to a flexible modern acrylic-alkyd topcoat over a bonding primer. It moves with the timber and shrugs off UV better than traditional oil gloss.

Exterior woodwork repainting in Christchurch — georgian and regency townhouses around the priory

Method statement, condensed

Weather-window planning per elevation

Points that shape the price

01

Colour continuity across doors, windows and gables

02

Whether front / garage doors will be taken off for spray

03

Access — tower vs scaffold on two-and-a-half storey gables

04

Drying windows for exterior water-based topcoats

05

Concurrent render or gutter works that need sequencing
