We get asked to paint all kinds of things, from garden fences and walls to furniture. We are always happy to discuss your potential project and to work on a fixed price or day rate, below are a few recent examples of some of the things we have been asked to paint.

Railings in Warminster

The customer wanted us to colour match their railings to the previous colour used which was no longer available, the railings normally have roses growing around them so we were asked to paint them right at the end of the season at the end of September, so the roses could be cut back after flowering

Railings before we started, they were given a very thorough sanding using Mirka sanders with 40 grit paper

Railings and gate finished using Johnstones Smooth Metal Paint in the colour BS5020 R90B

Double Garage Doors

This is a double garage in Heddington, the customer wanted the doors repainted both sides in a slightly lighter blue than previous, we rubbed down the woodwork, applied spot primer to any bare wood and then two coats of Albany Marine oil based gloss, we then repainted the hinges in Dulux high gloss black

Gates

Below are a couple of examples of gates we painted in 2020, the first one is a pair of wooden gates we stained using the Sikkens system and the other example a pair of metal ones which were painted using Hammerite

A pair of metal gates, we sanded these, and applied two coats of Hammerite direct to rust gloss black

Wall Before Painting
In this picture the wall doesn’t look too bad but it actually had a lot of black staining running down it

Below is an example of a garden wall we recently painted, we pressure washed the wall initially to get the worst of the grime off, then filled the worst cracks using mortar, before giving it a fungicidal wash and two coats of Dulux Weathershield Steely Thunder in smooth finish.

This customer asked us to paint their decking, they kindly pressured washed it a couple of weeks before we arrived, which left us to give it a light sand and two coats of Cuprinol Muted Clay

Railings

These particular railings below are from a school in Warminster, which had developed rust in places, we carried out a combination of removing rust with T-Cut and filling and repainting parts as required.
