{"children":[],"content":"<h2>What the job involves</h2><p>The paint on the outside of your house does a job. When it cracks and peels, water gets into the wood and render behind it. Then the repairs get expensive.</p><p>You get old paint scraped back, surfaces primed, and small repairs made before any new paint goes on. Work is booked around dry weather so the paint cures and lasts.</p><h3>What's included</h3><ul><li>Render and masonry painting</li><li>Fascias, soffits and bargeboards</li><li>Front doors, garage doors and window frames</li><li>Sheds, garden walls and outbuildings</li><li>Scraping, priming and repairs before painting</li></ul><h2>Common questions</h2><h3>What time of year can this be done?</h3><p>Exterior paint needs dry weather to cure, so work is booked around it. If a week looks wrong for painting outside, we will say so rather than rush it on.</p><h3>What can you paint outside?</h3><p>Render and masonry, fascias, soffits and bargeboards, front and garage doors, window frames, sheds, garden walls and outbuildings.</p><h3>Do you repair the wood before painting?</h3><p>Yes. Old paint is scraped back and small repairs are made first. Painting over bare or soft timber just traps the problem.</p><h3>Can you clear the gutters while you are up there?</h3><p>Yes, that is a sensible job to combine. See <a href=\"/services/gutter-cleaning\">gutter cleaning and roof repairs</a>.</p><h3>Do you paint fences and sheds as well as the house?</h3><p>Yes. Sheds, garden walls and outbuildings are all painted or treated. If the fence itself needs repair first, see <a href=\"/services/fence-gate-decking-repairs\">fence, gate and decking repairs</a>.</p><h3>Do you cover my area?</h3><p>We cover south west London, south London and Surrey, including Sutton, Wimbledon, Kingston upon Thames, Richmond, Clapham, Putney, Wandsworth, Epsom, Leatherhead and Dorking. If you are not sure, call and ask.</p><h3>How do I get a price?</h3><p>Text a photo of the job to <a href=\"tel:07961104266\">07961 104266</a> with rough sizes.
