Exterior painting
done properly, London-wide.
Front elevations, rear extensions, stucco, render, brickwork, sash windows and front doors — repaired properly first, then painted with a breathable system that lasts. Scaffold and tower access arranged for you.
What exterior painting
really involves in London.
Exterior painting in London is 80% preparation and 20% paint. Cracked render, blown stucco, rotten sills and flaking masonry paint all have to be dealt with before a brush goes near the wall — otherwise the new coat fails within two winters. We repair first, then paint.
The biggest cost drivers are access (scaffold or tower), the condition of the render and timber, the height and size of the elevation, and whether you're in a conservation area where colour and finish are controlled. Most Victorian terrace fronts in London fall between £2,500 and £5,500 + VAT including access.
Tom Harvey Contractors provides free site visits and itemised written quotes within 48 hours, and we arrange scaffold, licences and skips so you don't have to.
