Southampton fascia, bargeboard & door repainting
We usually plan Southampton exterior joinery as a whole-house cycle rather than one door at a time — the paint film is only as good as its worst elevation, and gables and dormers usually need most work.

Why the setting changes the work
Edwardian and inter-war housing in Portswood and Highfield, dockside high-rise apartments around Ocean Village and Centenary Quay, plus 1960s commercial stock on Above Bar.
Audience: Homeowners with painted-timber fascias, bargeboards, doors and windows on a weather cycle.
How the job is sequenced
We'll price this against real site conditions rather than a brochure — send drawings or dates and we'll book in.
The realistic working radius
Cruise-terminal traffic and the Itchen Bridge tolls shape our scheduling — early starts before peak make a real difference on city-centre jobs.

- Bitterne
- Shirley

What the schedule plans around
Colour continuity across doors, windows and gables
Whether front / garage doors will be taken off for spray
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
What clients usually ask first
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.
Which paint system do you use?
Bonding primer for aged, chalky or previously coated timber We share the product data sheet before mobilising.
How long does a typical exterior woodwork repainting job take?
Small projects run 2–4 days; larger programmes phase across 1–3 weeks depending on access and elevation count.
