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: a gate does not swing, latch or sit as intended or an accessible board, rail, gate fitting or timber surface shows wear, movement or a damaged finish. Causes: an aged coating, stain or finish that needs preparation before maintenance or weather exposure and ordinary surface deterioration.
Provide the old product if known and show flaking or glossy areas. The new system must suit the existing sound surface after appropriate preparation. Unknown hazardous coatings are excluded, and wholesale stripping should not be assumed inside a routine fence repaint.
Outdoor application depends on suitable weather and timber condition. Shade and exposure can affect drying differently along a run. Scheduling should allow the selected product’s requirements rather than promise that every fence can be coated on a fixed date regardless of conditions.
Prepare and coat the accepted accessible timber faces using a suitable agreed fence-paint system and ordinary controlled application. Limits: Sound accessible timber and authorised faces only. No structural stabilisation, hazardous stripping, assumed neighbour access or uncontrolled spray work.
