How long will UPVC spray painting last?

Our painted finish comes with a 8-10 year guarantee.

Why UPVC spray painting?

Perhaps your UPVC windows have faded and you want to renew them, or maybe you’re selling your house soon and want to give it a new look.

UPVC window spray painting is an effective way to change the outer appearance of your home while also giving your older windows a brand-new lease of life.

What is the best spray paint on kitchen cabinets?

We use a solvent based paint specifically created to give a hard and durable finish.

Moreover, it’s widely universal, capable of lasting on timber, vinyl and acrylic kitchen cabinets.

Why kitchen spray painting?

We recommend spray painting your kitchen because:
-It is 80% cheaper than replacing furniture
-There’s no need to remove the items you need painted
‍
Plus, you don’t need to paint yourself, you can sit back and relax while our experts do the hard work!

Can you paint a UPVC front door?

Yes, we can paint UPVC front doors.

Thanks to our equipment, we guarantee a factory finish that looks way better than any result achieved with regular plastic paint/ spray paint cans.

(Note: If you want to change the colour of your UPVC door, spray painting will also preserve the woodgrain effect if you have it.)

Can you spray paint garage doors?

We paint any garage door, whether it’s made from metal, timber, UPVC or a composite.

The main concern homeowners have is whether the painted finish will resist wear and tear.

Thanks to our preparation and painting processes, we ensure that the end result is visually pleasing and highly durable against adverse conditions.

Can you paint plastic pipework?

Yes, we can paint plastic pipework but we do not use standard off-the-shelf paints.

There are special paints designed specifically for UPVC and plastic and they are nearly always solvent-based with a good example being Korlorbond Original.

High-performance plastic paints bond with the plastic on a molecular level, forming crystalline growth and a sort of second skin, making it resistant to flaking when sanding.

Moreover, the technique we employ ensures that each coat of paint is evenly applied and makes your pipework look brand new, and it comes in three finishes.

Can you spray paint cladding on industrial and commercial buildings?

We offer this service, making it our goal to restore tatty cladding to a factory finish look.

Our method makes the cladding last longer and reduce the need for patching in the future.

(Note: Plastic cladding, timber cladding, and UPVC cladding can be painted, either in the same colour as it was or in a new colour.)

Can you paint UPVC cladding?

Thanks to better paint which bonds closer to the surface, we can now paint UPVC cladding to such a high quality it appears as though it was originally installed in the new colour.

The paint will not flake, peel or pull away, something which we guarantee for a period of 10 years.

Moreover, we use paints that act as primers when we apply the first coat, while the subsequent layers make the surface highly durable and long lasting.

(Note: We paint cladding in any colour. The most popular colour change is white to RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey.)

Do coloured UPVC windows cost more to buy?

Coloured UPVC windows typically carry a 20% to 30% premium over white UPVC windows, so you could end up spending more on coloured windows.

You may also notice a price disparity between UPVC brands.

This is because some coloured UPVC windows have 100% colour permeation, while others only have surface colour.

Solid colours tend to cost more due to the complexity of the manufacturing process.

However, we can spray paint your windows WITHOUT you needing to replace them and make them look as though they originally came in the colour of your choosing.

What prep is involved with UPVC painting?

Cleaning:
‍We make sure to remove any debris by thoroughly cleaning the UPVC, then we wipe it down with a solvent based cleaner that evaporates and acts as an adhesion promoter.

Masking:
‍We meticulously prepare the surfaces with masking tape and a 100% polythene plastic film to ensure every item is properly covered up and we have a smooth canvas to operate on.

Note: Among the tapes we use, there are the following:
-FrogTape
-ScotchBlue
-3M Blue

Do you do on-site or offsite spray painting?

We offer both services, however we highly recommend choosing the on-site procedure even for items that are removable.

Is there any downtime with commercial UPVC painting?

We always aim to finish the job efficiently with little to no downtime.

However, there are factors that may affect project length:
-Foul weather conditions
-Ambient temperature
-Access restrictions

We would like to specify that we do NOT spray in windy conditions, however we take all necessary precautions not to damage any windows or nearby cars and buildings if the wind picks up on the day of the job.

How much does UPVC spray painting cost?

Since there are many variables at play in each project, we suggest contacting us in order to get a personalised quote, regardless of the entity of the project.

We do offer discounts (based on the workload) should you choose to paint your whole home.

(Note: The price could increase should the need for scaffolding arise.

In order to guarantee the good health and safety of our team, we need to assess whether your property offers the adequate footing for ladders or if scaffolding is required.)
