Why Choose Our Exterior Painting in Brighouse?

Expert Knowledge of Exterior Work
Exterior painting needs different skills than interior work. Our team focuses on outside decoration and knows how Yorkshire weather affects paintwork. We understand which products and preparation work best for Brighouse properties, from stone cottages to modern homes.
Weather-Resistant Quality Paints
We only use top exterior paints made to handle British weather: protection from rain and wind, UV damage resistance, handling temperature changes, stopping mould and algae growth, and standing up to frost and ice. Our paints come from leading trade brands including Dulux Weathershield, Crown Trade, and Johnstone's Trade.
Thorough Surface Preparation
Long-lasting exterior painting needs proper preparation. We never cut corners: power washing to remove dirt and algae, scraping and sanding old paint, fixing rotten wood, filling cracks and gaps, treating bare wood with preservative, using specialist primers and undercoats, and protecting windows, doors, and surroundings.
Safe Working at Height
Exterior painting means working at height. We're fully insured for all outside work and follow strict safety rules with professional scaffolding and equipment, full insurance cover, trained safety practices, and experience with all property types. Learn more about our team and approach.

Our Exterior Painting Process

1. Free Property Survey

Contact us  for a free site visit. We'll check your property's condition, talk about colour choices, find any repairs needed, explain our process and timeline, and give you detailed, fixed-price quotes.

2. Colour Selection

Exterior colours define your property for years. We offer professional colour advice, sample pots for testing, guidance on colours that suit your property type, planning permission help if needed, and ideas for matching colours. For helpful tips, read our article on choosing the right colour scheme for any room.

3. Proper Preparation

Before painting starts, we do thorough preparation: power washing all surfaces, scraping loose paint, sanding rough areas, treating and fixing rotten timber, filling cracks in rendering and masonry, treating bare wood, applying knotting solution, and priming bare surfaces properly.

4. Weather Checking

Exterior painting needs good conditions. We check forecasts and only paint when right: temperatures above 10°C, no rain forecast for 24 hours, low humidity, light winds, and dry surfaces.

5. Protection & Safety

We protect your property and garden: covering plants and shrubs, protecting windows and doors with masking, laying protective sheets for paths and driveways, putting up scaffolding safely, and covering outdoor furniture.

6. Professional Application

Using professional tools, we apply primer/undercoat to prepared surfaces, allow proper drying time, apply first topcoat with full coverage, check for any problems, apply final topcoat for perfect finish, and cut in carefully around features.

7. Final Check

Once finished, we do a full check with you, remove all protective covers, clean up paint splashes, take away all waste, remove scaffolding and equipment, and leave your property spotless.

Why Choose Professional Exterior Painting?

  • Safety First – Professional decorators have proper scaffolding and safety equipment, insurance for working at height, training in safe practices, and experience with all property types. DIY exterior painting can be dangerous without proper equipment.
  • Better Results – Professionals get better results through proper surface preparation, knowledge of matching primers and paints, experience with different surfaces, professional-grade equipment, and refined techniques. DIY jobs often show brush marks, uneven coverage, and early failure.
  • Long-Term Value – Professional exterior painting gives better value through longer-lasting results (5-10 years versus 2-4 years), proper weather protection, fewer repairs needed, higher quality look, and increased property value.
