Clean & Tidy

We treat your property with care and respect, so you don't have to worry

✅ Plaster

Plaster walls need special care because they are porous and can be damaged easily. We start by checking the surface for cracks, chips, or flaws that need fixing.

We clean plaster surfaces well and apply a high-quality primer made just for plaster. This key step helps the paint stick better and stops the plaster from soaking up too much moisture. For older plaster walls with tiny cracks, we use special fillers that move with the wall.

Our painters use breathable paints that let moisture escape instead of getting trapped in the plaster. This prevents bubbling or peeling later. We usually apply 2-3 coats using methods that show off the natural texture of plaster walls.

Common in Swansea: Plaster walls are often found in older homes throughout Uplands, Mumbles, and Sketty. Many Victorian and Edwardian homes have plaster walls. Traditional terraced houses in Brynmill and Sandfields areas also have plaster walls.

✅ Drywall

Drywall (also called plasterboard) needs careful work for a perfect finish. We begin by finding and fixing any flaws like visible seams, nail pops, or dents.

We sand all joints and apply joint compound where needed to make the surface smooth. For new drywall, we use a special sealer. This makes sure the paper facing and joint compound absorb paint the same way. It prevents spots where painted joints look different from the rest of the wall.

Our team picks primers made just for drywall that stick well. These create a good base for the paint. We apply paint using methods that reduce roller marks and brush strokes. This gives a smooth, professional finish.

Common in Swansea: Drywall is found in newer buildings throughout Swansea Bay. This includes modern apartments in SA1 Waterfront and new-build homes in Killay and Tycoch. Recently updated properties in Morriston and Llansamlet areas also have drywall.

✅ Render

Outside rendered walls face special challenges due to weather exposure. Our approach mixes thorough prep work with special materials made for rendered surfaces.

We start by pressure washing to remove dirt, algae, and loose material. We repair any cracks using flexible fillers that move with the render. These work as the render expands and contracts. For older render with many layers of old paint, we check how well it's sticking. We may need to remove failing paint first.

We use breathable masonry primers that soak into the render and stick well. Our exterior paints for render include high-quality silicone or acrylic formulas. These resist water while letting the wall breathe. These special paints protect against UV rays to prevent fading. They also contain ingredients that stop algae and mould growth.

Common in Swansea: Rendered exteriors are common in Maritime Quarter properties and coastal homes in Mumbles and Langland. Many semi-detached houses in Derwen Fawr and Killay areas also have rendered exteriors.

✅ Brickwork

Painting brickwork takes special knowledge. We keep the brick's character while giving lasting protection. We start with a thorough cleaning to remove dirt, white salt deposits, and loose mortar.

For outside brickwork, we fix any mortar joints before painting. We make sure the surface is completely dry. We apply masonry primers made just for brick. These soak into the porous surface and stick well.

Our painters use special breathable masonry paints. These let moisture escape from the brickwork while protecting it from the weather. For inside exposed brick, we offer finishes from matte to satin. These enhance the natural texture while being durable and washable.

Common in Swansea: Painted brickwork stands out in converted warehouse apartments in the Marina area. It's also in character properties throughout Cwmdonkin and Brynmill. Traditional brick-fronted shops and homes along Walter Road and Uplands also feature painted brickwork.

✅ Concrete

Concrete walls present challenges like high alkalinity and possible dampness. They often have rough texture. We start by preparing thoroughly. This includes pressure washing for outside surfaces and cleaning with special solutions for inside concrete.

We apply concrete-specific primers designed to bond with the alkaline surface. These prevent white salt deposits. For smooth concrete, we often use an acid wash to help paint stick better. For textured concrete, we use special methods including spray application. This covers all surface bumps.

Our concrete paint choices include tough epoxy-based formulas for high-traffic areas. For outside concrete, we use flexible coatings that move with temperature changes. These stay waterproof. For decorative concrete finishes, we offer special techniques like colour washing and faux finishes.

Common in Swansea: Concrete walls are often found in commercial properties throughout Swansea Enterprise Park. They're also in industrial conversions in SA1. Basement areas of townhouses near Swansea University have concrete walls. Modern homes in Caswell Bay and Langland also feature concrete walls.
