Your decorator’s decade of exterior work across Coventry shows what holds on West Midlands facades. Canley’s 1940s-60s post-war semis have rendered walls that absorb moisture through hairline cracks. Exterior painting here must include crack filling, a masonry primer, and a breathable flexible masonry coating to prevent water ingress returning within a season.

Exterior Painting Services
Your decorator covers every exterior surface on residential properties across Coventry.
Masonry and Rendered Walls
Rendered facades are common across Coventry’s post-war stock in Canley, Finham, Cheylesmore, and Tile Hill. Before painting, your decorator checks for structural cracks, hollow areas, and poorly bonded sections.
Cracks are filled with flexible exterior filler. Only then does your decorator prime and apply the finish coat. For a detailed breakdown, see our masonry painting page.
Windows and Woodwork
Timber sash windows, fascias, soffits, and front doors all need proper preparation before paint. Earlsdon’s Albany Road Victorian terraces retain original softwood timber sash windows with multiple paint layers.
Your decorator strips back to sound timber, patches any rot, primes correctly, and applies durable exterior gloss or satin. For more on timber preparation, see our wood painting page.
Fascias, Soffits, and Gutters
Fascias and soffits protect the roof line. When they deteriorate, water gets in. Your decorator repaints timber fascias where they are sound and advises on replacement where they are not.
uPVC fascias and gutters can be repainted with specialist adhesion primers. Your decorator inspects and advises on condition before recommending an approach.
Front Door and Porch
The front door is the first thing visitors see. An Earlsdon Street Victorian terrace front door with original multi-pane glazing earns its reputation on a single street.
For a dedicated front door service with colour consultation and full period detail, see our front door painting page.
Garden Walls and Outbuildings
Brick boundary walls, gate piers, and rendered outbuildings need the same care as the main house. Many Kenilworth and Styvechale properties have substantial brick and stone boundary walls.
Your decorator treats garden walls alongside the main exterior repaint for a consistent finish across the property.
Garage Doors
Garage doors take a lot of weathering and are often overlooked until the paint is badly flaking. Your decorator prepares and repaints timber, steel, and GRP garage doors as part of the exterior scope.
For a dedicated service with colour options and full preparation detail, see our garage door painting page.

The Exterior Painting Process
1. Site Assessment
Your decorator visits and checks every surface. Your decorator notes surface type, existing coating condition, renders integrity, and any biological growth.
2. Surface Preparation
Your decorator cleans moss, algae, and loose material. Render is repaired where needed. Timber is stripped to sound material.
3. Priming
Bare timber gets a specialist exterior timber primer. Masonry gets a masonry primer suited to the surface.
4. Paint Application
Two finish coats are standard. High-exposure aspects get a third where needed. Your decorator monitors weather and plans application phases around it.
5. Inspection and Touch-Up
Once the final coat has cured, all surfaces in good light are inspected. Touch-ups are completed before your decorator leaves.

Exterior Painting Costs in Coventry
Prices below are estimates only. Every property is different.
What Drives the Price
Exterior painting typically costs between £20 and £45 per square metre, including preparation and two finish coats. Total project costs usually fall between £1,200 and £6,500 depending on property size and condition.
Surface area, surface condition, and paint system are the three main price factors.
Trade Insight
Earlsdon and Styvechale properties have a high proportion of original sash windows and timber joinery. A thorough timber preparation stage adds to the total but is what makes the finish last on these houses.
Typical Ranges
- Post-war terrace (Canley, 1940s-60s, rendered walls): £1,200 to £1,800.
- 1960s semi-detached (Finham, rendered walls): £1,800 to £2,800 for walls and woodwork.
- Victorian detached (Kenilworth, 4-5 bed, period joinery): £3,500 to £6,500 for a full exterior.
