Service overview

Signs: the surface is scuffed, patchy, weathered or no longer presents evenly or a local repair or prior coating needs preparation before a new finish is considered. Causes: normal use, weather exposure or aged coating or incompatible or unknown prior finishes that need checking.
Low trim is easily knocked by cleaning equipment and furniture. Allow the product-specific drying and curing stages before normal contact. Exact readiness depends on the coating and conditions, so no universal same-day cleaning promise should be assumed.
Fresh trim may look different beside aged walls or an unpainted door. Discuss the intended boundary and finish expectation. The quote should identify the actual surfaces rather than imply that all adjoining paintwork will be refreshed at the same time.
The agreed service covers small interior trim preparation and recoating after substrate suitability review. Exclusions: Structural timber repair, hazardous coating removal, external window restoration, large renovation repaint.
