Exterior paint fails when prep is skipped. Flaky old coats, damp timber, unfilled cracks — paint over them and it lifts within a season. Our Maidstone team scrapes, fills, primes and top-coats with the right paint for the substrate so it holds through Kent winters.
When You Need Exterior Painting
You probably need exterior painting in Maidstone when render is flaking, timber is bare, masonry paint is chalking or the whole front looks tired Common warning signs include flaking or peeling paint on render, bare or grey timber on windows and doors, damp patches or algae on north-facing walls, chalky powder coming off masonry paint, and dated colour scheme. Kent damp and south-west rain lift cheap masonry paint in one winter — proper prep and the right paint fix that. Waiting rarely makes any of this cheaper — small problems in Kent homes turn into structural or damp problems fast, and the fix that would have taken a day starts costing weeks. If two or more of these signs sound familiar, get us out for a free look this week.
Our Exterior Painting Process
We keep it simple. You call 07752 175450 and a real builder answers — no call centre, no chase-back. We book a free site visit, usually same day. On site we walk the elevations, check timber and render, and quote prep-and-paint in writing. From there the job runs in clear stages: scaffold or ladder access, scrape, sand and fill, prime bare surfaces, two coats of correct exterior paint, then clean up and tidy. Timeline is typically three to seven days for a full house exterior, and you get a weekly update, one project manager as your single point of contact, and a tidy hand-over at the end — no half-finished mess, no chasing us for the last 10%.
Exterior Painting Cost in Maidstone
Every exterior painting job is priced against your property, not a rate card. The main things that move the number are size and height of property, access (scaffold vs ladder), amount of prep and repair needed, and paint spec and coverage. What we promise is simple: a free site visit, a written fixed quote in your inbox within days, and no day-rate creep or surprise extras once the job starts. If the scope changes on your side, we agree the change and the price in writing before we lift a tool. That is how you avoid the two-quote, three-invoice horror stories.
