Why Spray Instead of Replace
A Fraction of the Cost of New Windows
Replacing a full set of windows and doors runs into thousands of pounds and means scaffolding, mess, and a week of your house being open to the weather. Spraying them costs a fraction of that, takes days rather than weeks, and leaves you with frames that look like they came off the line yesterday.
What We Spray
Anything Outside That Is uPVC
We also spray composite and aluminium, which matters on a house where the windows are uPVC but the front door is composite. Sprayed together on the same visit, they end up the same colour rather than nearly the same colour.
- uPVC windows and window frames
- Front doors, back doors and patio doors
- Garage doors, up and over or sectional
- Fascias, soffits and guttering
- Downpipes and cladding
- Conservatory frames and exterior trims
- Meter boxes and vents

How It Works On Site
The Process, Adapted for Outside
The preparation is the same obsession as our kitchen work, but the conditions are not. Exterior spraying runs through the warmer, drier months, because the coating needs the right temperature and humidity to cure properly. We will tell you honestly if the weather is going to hold a job up, rather than rush it and watch it fail.
Clean and degrease
Fifteen years of road film, cobwebs and pollen come off before anything else happens.
Key the surface
Frames are keyed and any rough or crazed areas worked back, so the coating has something to grip.
Mask everything
Glass, brickwork, sills, handles and hinges are masked off. This is the slow part, and it is the part that decides whether the finish looks sprayed or looks messy.
Adhesion primer
A specialist adhesion promoter goes on first. uPVC is not a friendly surface for paint, and the primer is what stops the finish peeling in two years.
Two to three coats
Exterior coating sprayed wet on wet for an even, factory-style finish with no brush marks.
Unmask and check over
Masking comes off, every frame is checked, and the site is left clean.
Most houses are done in one to three days depending on the number of frames. No scaffolding on a standard two storey house, no windows removed, and nothing left open overnight.
Colours
Anthracite Leads, But It Is Not the Only Option
Anthracite grey is what most people ask for, and for good reason: it is the colour new builds ship with, it works on stone and on brick, and it makes white uPVC look instantly current. RAL 7016 is the standard anthracite and the one we spray most.
- Anthracite Grey
RAL 7016 - Black
RAL 9005 - Chartwell Green
BS 14C35 - Agate Grey
RAL 7038 - Cream
RAL 9001 - Steel Blue
RAL 5011
Beyond these, any RAL, Farrow & Ball or British Standard colour can be matched. If you are matching a new front door, a composite porch or a neighbour's frames, bring us the colour reference and we will match it.
Doors
A New Front Door, Without a New Front Door
A door changes the whole face of a house for a fraction of what a replacement costs. Tap any of these to see the change.
Durability
Built for a Yorkshire Winter
Exterior coatings are chosen for outdoor life: resistant to UV fading, cracking and peeling, and flexible enough to move with the frames through a Yorkshire winter. Every job carries the same 10 year warranty as our kitchen work.
