As the seasons change, it is important that you are aware of the optimum weather and temperature conditions for maximising your painting opportunities. When Spring is upon us, it's a great time for those projects such as painting swimming pools, pool houses, ponds, tennis courts and roofs. Get painting!

Many of our products are temperature sensitive and have an optimum temperature application range to ensure their best performance. We recommend that you check your local weather conditions prior to starting your project. Visit the BBC Weather Site for your area.

Now is the perfect time to plan external maintenance that require more major repairs and attention ahead of any investment of time in painting. Concrete repairs, wood and metal replacement, gutters, downpipes and roofing etc., will all take time to properly prepare ahead of painting. Our Technical Team have experienced the complete range of variables throughout the seasons in over 75 years of trading! Please draw on this knowledge by contacting us on 01202 295570 or email us HERE.
