a gate does not swing, latch or sit as intended. Prepare and coat the accepted accessible timber faces using a suitable agreed fence-paint system and ordinary controlled application.
Signs: outdoor timber looks weathered and needs a focused maintenance or repair decision or an accessible board, rail, gate fitting or timber surface shows wear, movement or a damaged finish. Causes: loose compatible fixings or local timber wear or an aged coating, stain or finish that needs preparation before maintenance.
Vegetation, stored items and nearby paving can limit preparation and application. Explain what can be moved safely before the visit. The plan should protect adjacent surfaces rather than assume unrestricted spraying or permission to cut back plants on another property.
Length and height help define the scope, but rails, posts and returns also matter. Show the complete run rather than one paling. The quote should identify the faces and components to be painted so a single-side price is not read as covering the whole fence.
repair a suitable local component. prepare and maintain sound accessible timber with a compatible finish. Limits: Sound accessible timber and authorised faces only. No structural stabilisation, hazardous stripping, assumed neighbour access or uncontrolled spray work.
