Our Step-by-Step Paint Preparation Process in Herne Hill

  • Step 1 Initial Surface Inspection

    We begin by inspecting all surfaces to identify cracks, peeling paint, moisture damage or mould. This helps us tailor the prep process for your specific property.

  • Step 2 Pressure Washing & Cleaning

    We remove built-up grime, salt spray (a real issue this close to the coast), cobwebs and mould using high-pressure washing systems and eco-friendly cleaning agents.

  • Step 3 Sanding & Smoothing

    Every surface is sanded by hand or machine to remove loose paint and create a smooth, adhesive-friendly base. Rough surfaces? Consider them sorted.

  • Step 4 Filling & Repairing

    We fill holes, patch cracks, and repair surface imperfections with high-grade fillers and sealants. This is where we do the invisible work that makes the final result pop.

  • Step 5 Priming the Surface

    Priming is the glue that holds it all together. We apply premium primers suited to your surface—timber, brick, render or metal—for maximum adhesion and longevity.

  • Step 6 Final Prep & Protection

    We mask fixtures, cover floors and protect landscaping. No paint where it shouldn’t be. Just precision and cleanliness—down to the last detail.
