Frequently Asked Questions
– Coastal Properties –
Why does coastal painting cost more than inland properties?
Coastal painting requires premium salt-resistant products, more extensive preparation to remove salt contamination, specialized techniques, and additional protective measures. This investment significantly extends coating life in harsh marine environments.
How long will paint last on a coastal property?
With premium DULUX coastal systems and proper preparation, expect 8-12 years on well-protected surfaces and 5-8 years on direct salt-spray exposure areas. This compares to 3-5 years with standard products in coastal locations.
What's the best time to paint coastal properties?
Autumn and early spring offer ideal conditions with moderate temperatures, lower humidity, and reduced tourist traffic. We avoid peak summer heat and winter moisture where possible.
Can you paint during summer holiday periods?
We can work during holidays but recommend scheduling during quieter periods for better weather windows and less disruption to holiday enjoyment. We coordinate timing based on your preferences.
How do you handle salt-damaged surfaces?
Our process includes comprehensive cleaning to remove salt contamination, corrosion treatment, damaged material repair or replacement, barrier coating application, and premium protective topcoats designed for marine environments.
Do coastal properties need special paint products?
Absolutely. Standard inland paint products fail quickly in coastal environments. We use DULUX premium coastal formulations specifically engineered for salt resistance, UV protection, and moisture management.
How do you protect metal surfaces from coastal corrosion?
We use comprehensive metal protection systems including surface preparation, corrosion treatment, specialized metal primers, and premium topcoats with corrosion inhibitors designed for marine environments.
Can you coordinate with our property manager?
Yes, we regularly work with property managers, caretakers, and real estate agents managing coastal properties. We provide remote communication, progress updates, and secure site management.
