What moves the price.
-
Exposure
Sea-facing and full-sun elevations need higher-grade systems and more coats than sheltered ones.
-
Substrate condition
Sound render paints faster than chalked, blistered or salt-damaged surfaces that need making good first.
-
Access and height
Double storey, steep sites and tight access add scaffold, time and safety gear.
-

Heritage detailing, feature colours and premium finishes take more prep and more careful cutting-in.
