Cabinet-grade radiator repainting in Christchurch
Cast-iron radiators in Christchurch's Victorian and Edwardian stock benefit hugely from a proper respray — the profile shows through beautifully in a satin finish rather than being lost under brush strokes.
What we usually see at survey
Georgian and Regency townhouses around the Priory, Edwardian and inter-war seafront villas at Highcliffe and Mudeford, plus modern harbourside apartments at Stanpit and Bridge Street.
Audience: Homeowners wanting radiators and pipework matched or contrasted to the wall colour without replacement.
Where else we work this week
Priory conservation area and Mudeford Quay need low-impact welfare setups; airport-perimeter business-park work requires pre-cleared BOH security access.
