Painting external timber joinery across Lymington
For coastal Lymington properties in Pennington and Milford on Sea, 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.
Method statement, condensed
Points that shape the price
Access — tower vs scaffold on two-and-a-half storey gables
Drying windows for exterior water-based topcoats
Concurrent render or gutter works that need sequencing
Trade paint choice — acrylic-alkyd vs traditional oil gloss
Existing paint condition — chalking, blistering, flaking
How Lymington shapes the specification
Listed Georgian seafarers' townhouses on Quay Hill and High Street, flint cottages out toward Pennington, and modern marina-side apartments.
Audience: Homeowners with painted-timber fascias, bargeboards, doors and windows on a weather cycle.
Why this is familiar ground

Before we walk the site
Can you match a specific colour or brand palette?
Yes — we colour-match from any sample or reference chip and prepare a brush-out board before full application.
Do you cover the whole Lymington area for exterior woodwork repainting?
Yes — exterior woodwork repainting runs across the Lymington postcodes weekly. We work from Southsea and cover Hampshire, Dorset and West Sussex daily — talk to us on 023 9355 3460 or send drawings and access dates via the contact form.
How is a exterior woodwork repainting project priced?
We price against a physical site walk-round rather than a rate card — access, condition and use always change the scope.
What preparation is included?
Preparation is the majority of the day on this brief — full sand-back, priming and any resin or filler repair before topcoat.
