a local repair or prior coating needs preparation before a new finish is considered. Prepare and paint the accepted accessible timber component with a compatible exterior system, protecting adjacent surfaces and operating clearances.
Signs: a local repair or prior coating needs preparation before a new finish is considered or the existing finish shows ordinary wear that may suit bounded maintenance. Causes: incompatible or unknown prior finishes that need checking or normal use, weather exposure or aged coating.
A painted door or window component still needs suitable movement and contact clearances. Excess paint build-up can affect operation. Agree which accessible faces can be coated and how they will remain separated while drying, without treating painting as a substitute for alignment repair.
Identify the whole door, frame or trim section to be coated, including any edges and returns you want finished. A complete timber component can need more preparation than an isolated paint spot. The quote should identify exactly where the new finish starts and stops.
Prepare and paint the accepted accessible timber component with a compatible exterior system, protecting adjacent surfaces and operating clearances. Limits: Complete ordinary accessible sound timber components only. No glazing work, structural rot reconstruction, hazardous stripping, waterproofing or high-access specialist work.
