Exterior painting for homes and commercial buildings, including difficult-access walls, fascia boards and soffits. Start with the surface condition and a clear scope for the areas you want painted.
A painting proposal needs more than a colour and an area. Existing coatings, repairs, access and nearby windows all affect the work. Altitude combines painting tradespeople with rope access capability to discuss the preparation and finish your building needs.
Identify each elevation and whether the work is a full repaint or selected areas. A close look at the existing finish helps establish the preparation required. Include balconies, adjoining roofs and other features that could affect access.
These can be awkward to reach on a hillside or multi-storey property. Tell us whether the concern is flaking paint, exposed edges or damaged material. If a substrate needs repair, that should be addressed in the scope before a new finish is applied.
Coordinate colours, tenant requirements and access arrangements before work starts. Where cleaning, sealant work or concrete repairs are also planned, discuss the sequence so freshly finished surfaces are not disturbed by later work.
| Scope item | What to make clear |
|---|---|
| Preparation | Which surfaces are being cleaned, prepared and primed, and what defects remain excluded. |
| Repairs | Whether failed joints or damaged substrates need separate investigation or work. |
| Finish | The agreed coating system, colour and areas included. |
| Access and timing | How work areas, entrances, vehicles and weather interruptions will be managed. |
It can suit some elevations and scopes. The surface preparation, duration, materials and access conditions determine the appropriate method. We do not assume ropes are the right answer before assessing the work.
Tell us about active or recurring leaks when you enquire. Painting over a symptom does not establish its cause. Investigation and necessary repairs should inform the painting plan.
Describe the areas you want included and any adjacent surfaces that need to match. We can discuss a defined scope, including how the edges of a partial repaint will be treated.
Send the building address and the elevations you want included. Add any photographs of the existing finish to help us discuss the right scope.
