Sash Window Painting in Crystal Palace: What to expect
Most Crystal Palace (SE19) sash projects are on large victorian housess with 10–20 windows of mixed condition. We hand-strip failing paint, repair the putty and open joints, ease the cords and pulleys so the sashes run again, prime with a microporous system, then finish in two coats of Sikkens or Dulux Trade Weathershield. Done once, properly, the exterior finish lasts 7–10 years.
Crystal Palace's elevated position and distinctive Victorian architecture give the area a character all its own. The large, often quirky period properties around the park and Triangle area benefit from decoration that embraces their individuality. We enjoy working in Crystal Palace — the homes are interesting, the clients are engaged, and the results are always rewarding.
