Exterior Painting Services
Masonry and Rendered Walls
Rendered walls, brick and stone need different preparation and coating systems. See masonry painting for substrate-specific guidance.
Windows and Woodwork
Window and exterior woodwork materials, accessible faces, coating condition and repair exclusions are recorded before preparation is proposed. Related services: wood painting.
Fascias, Soffits, and Gutters
Timber fascias and soffits are checked for coating failure, open joints and decay. Sound areas may be included for repainting; unsuitable or defective sections are recorded separately.
Fascias and soffits are checked for material type, coating failure and signs of timber deterioration. The quote distinguishes preparation and painting from repairs or replacement work.
Doors, Fencing, and Outdoor Structures
Front Door and Porch
Any listed-building, planning or conservation requirements must be confirmed with the relevant authority before work is specified. Related services: front door painting door painting.
Fencing, Decking, and Outbuildings

Here’s How It Works
1. Site Assessment
Your decorator inspects the exterior surfaces requested and records substrate, coating condition, defects, contamination and access. Repairs outside decorating are identified separately.
2. Surface Preparation
Cleaning and preparation are specified for each substrate after contamination, coating failure and defects have been inspected. Repairs are included only where recorded in the quotation.
3. Priming
Primer is specified only where the substrate condition and selected coating system require it. Historic masonry and render need a compatible approach based on the identified material and existing coating.
4. Paint Application
Application methods are chosen for the elevation, substrate, access and coating system. Brush, roller or other methods are used only where suitable for the inspected surface.
5. Inspection and Touch-Up
You review the accessible completed elevations with your decorator against the written scope. Product-led drying restrictions and any outstanding defects are discussed.
Exterior Painting Costs in Durham
Call 0191 743 9903 to discuss the exterior surfaces and preparation to be assessed for the written quote.
Surface Area
Exterior area is measured by included elevation and surface, with openings, trim and access noted separately.
Surface Condition
Defective render or timber may need repair or coating removal before repainting. The assessment records substrate condition and any consent constraints confirmed by the owner.
Paint System
Coating cost varies by product system. Sandstone, older render and listed buildings require substrate-specific and, where applicable, consent-aware specifications rather than a blanket product rule. Suitability depends on the substrate and the specification confirmed after inspection.
The quotation names the coating system proposed for each inspected exterior substrate and existing finish.
The quote identifies the proposed exterior coating system, included elevations, preparation, access provision and any repairs that are excluded.
- Ask your decorator to record the included elevations, preparation, access and exclusions before you agree the work.
