FAQs

Frequently asked questions

What does your external decoration service include?

Our external decoration service covers all exterior surfaces including windows, doors, fascias, soffits, bargeboards, and external woodwork. We begin with thorough surface preparation — sanding, filling, priming, and making good any damaged areas — before applying high-quality paints and preservatives for a lasting finish.

Do you repair timber before painting?

Yes. We always repair any damaged or rotten timber before decorating. This includes epoxy consolidation, hardwood splicing, and filling as required. Painting over damaged timber without repair is a false economy — it simply traps moisture and accelerates decay.

What paints do you use for external decoration?

We use high-quality exterior paints and preservatives from leading manufacturers. The specific products are selected based on the substrate, exposure, and any conservation requirements. We are happy to discuss colour choices and finishes as part of the quotation process.

Can you decorate the exterior of a listed building?

Yes. RepairCare London has extensive experience decorating listed buildings and properties in conservation areas. We use appropriate materials and techniques that are sympathetic to the building's heritage and comply with local planning requirements.
