We were looking at painting our house and found Ryan, who gave us a competitive quote and did fantastic job. Great work ethic and time management was good too. Would highly recommend his service. He also managed all the clear out all the furniture and put them back in order.

Highly recommend these decorators. Ryan decorated whole house which the tenant had left in an awful state of repair including vintage denim colour in hallway and halfway up the stairs and landing presumably just to where she could reach.
The place is now like a new house.
I am immensely grateful for his expertise and dedication regarding his work.
Definitely recommend.

Window Frame Painting Services

Your decorator paints all types of window frames with the correct preparation for each material.

Timber Sash Frames

Original softwood sash windows in Earlsdon and Styvechale period properties have accumulated paint layers over many decades. The sash channel narrows with each coat.

Your decorator strips the sash channel back to allow clearance before repriming and repainting. Sashes are checked to slide freely at every stage.

Casement Windows

Casement windows on Coventry’s post-war stock in Finham, Canley, and Cheylesmore include timber, metal, and uPVC frames. Timber casement frames need sanding, priming, and exterior gloss or satin.

Metal casement frames need a rust-inhibiting primer before any topcoat. Where rust is present, your decorator treats it before priming.

uPVC Window Frames

uPVC frames can be repainted with a specialist adhesion primer and compatible finish coat. This is a cost-effective alternative to replacement where the frame is structurally sound.

The surface must be thoroughly cleaned and degreased before the adhesion primer is applied.

Fascias, Soffits, and Sills

Fascias and soffits are part of the window frame and roof line system. Timber fascias in period Coventry properties deteriorate from the top surface where water sits.

External window sills collect standing water. The sill nose is often the first point of failure. Your decorator pays particular attention to sill noses.

Preparation and Priming

The preparation stage separates a window frame finish that lasts from one that fails within a year. Exterior timber expands and contracts with temperature change.

Your decorator does not apply topcoat to bare or poorly primed timber. Primer is not optional. It is the stage that makes the work last.

Here’s How It Works

1. Site Visit and Condition Check

Your decorator inspects all window frames, notes any rot, rust, existing paint condition, and sash channel issues.

2. Surface Preparation

Timber frames are stripped where necessary and sanded to a sound key. Rust on metal frames is treated. uPVC surfaces are cleaned and degreased.

3. Priming

Bare timber gets an exterior wood primer. Metal frames get a rust-inhibiting primer. uPVC gets a specialist adhesion primer.

4. Topcoat Application

Two coats of exterior gloss or satin in the confirmed colour. Each coat cures fully between applications.

5. Sash Check and Inspection

Sash windows are checked to slide freely after every coat. Every window opens and closes correctly before your decorator leaves.

Window Frame Painting Costs in Coventry

Prices below are estimates only. Every window job is different.

What Drives the Price

Frame type, preparation required, and window count all affect the cost. A plain casement frame costs less than an original sash window with a complex sash channel.

Frames with multiple failing paint layers need stripping, which adds time per window.

Typical Ranges

Sash window frame stripped, re-primed, and gloss finished on Albany Road, Earlsdon: £190 to £320 per window. Standard casement window in a Finham or Cheylesmore post-war semi: £80 to £130 per window.

Full exterior window package for all windows on a Kenilworth Victorian detached: £1,800 to £3,500.
