a local repair or prior coating needs preparation before a new finish is considered. Prepare and touch up the agreed small accessible exterior areas with compatible materials, keeping the repair boundaries clear.
Signs: a local repair or prior coating needs preparation before a new finish is considered or the surface is scuffed, patchy, weathered or no longer presents evenly. Causes: normal use, weather exposure or aged coating or incompatible or unknown prior finishes that need checking.
Include nearby glass, paving, plants and fittings in the photographs. A small paint area can still need careful protection. Access to neighbouring property or removal of fixtures should never be assumed from the size of the mark.
Show whether the spot is sheltered or directly exposed and identify the material where known. The compatible exterior product must suit that setting. This task does not extend to specialist wet-area systems, waterproofing or remediation of an unresolved substrate problem.
Prepare and touch up the agreed small accessible exterior areas with compatible materials, keeping the repair boundaries clear. Limits: Small accessible sound exterior spots only. No full exterior restoration, waterproofing, hazardous coating disturbance or specialist high-access work.
