See prices guideMasonry and Render Painting in Islington — FAQs.
How long does masonry paint last?
Quality breathable masonry paint on properly prepped walls typically lasts 10–15 years. Exposure, substrate and prep quality all matter — we'll give you a realistic figure for your property.
Can you paint pebbledash?
Yes — pebbledash drinks paint (it can need twice the coverage of smooth render), which is why some quotes look suspiciously cheap. Ours are honest about the material it really takes.
My render is cracked — can you still paint it?
Cracks get routed and filled with flexible exterior filler first; blown sections are patched. Painting over cracks without repair just prints them through the new coat — we don't do that.
How much should I budget for masonry painting in Islington?
Every job is priced individually on size, surface condition and finish. Send a few photos of your Islington property on WhatsApp for a free fixed quote — usually the same day, with no hidden extras.
Do you supply materials for Islington jobs?
Either way works: we supply quality trade paint as part of your quote, or you buy your own and we'll tell you exactly how much you need using our paint calculator.
How soon can you start in Islington?
Smaller Islington jobs can often start within the week; larger projects are usually booked one to three weeks out. Tell us your dates and we'll be straight about what's realistic.
