UPVC Conservatory Frameworks
White UPVC is the most common conservatory material on Oxford’s 1990s and 2000s housing. Your decorator uses spray application to achieve a factory-smooth finish. The most popular colour change is from white to anthracite grey or black.
Aluminium Conservatory Frames
Older conservatories on 1980s and early 1990s properties were built with aluminium profiles. Aluminium can be repainted with the right preparation: cleaning, abrading, metal primer, and two finish coats.
Timber Conservatory Frames
Victorian and Edwardian properties in Headington, Iffley, and Summertown sometimes have original or period-style timber lean-to conservatories. Your decorator treats timber conservatory frames to the same standard as any other exterior joinery.
Dwarf Walls and Brickwork
Most conservatories sit on a dwarf wall. If the brickwork is painted or rendered, repainting it as part of the conservatory project completes the refresh.
Colour Options
The before and after on a conservatory colour change is one of the most immediate visual transformations available without structural work. Your decorator advises on colour coordination with existing window frames and rear doors.


The Conservatory Painting Process
1. Assessment
Your decorator checks the conservatory frame material, condition, and sizes. Your decorator advises on whether painting is appropriate.
2. Cleaning and Degreasing
All profiles are cleaned and degreased thoroughly. Residue from cleaning products or silicone sealant must be removed.
3. Abrading
The profiles are lightly abraded to create a key for the primer.
4. Masking
The glazing panels are masked carefully. A conservatory has a much larger glass area relative to its frame than a standard window.
5. Primer Application
UPVC adhesion primer, metal primer, or wood primer as appropriate is applied and allowed to cure.
6. Two Topcoats
Sprayed for a professional factory-smooth finish.
7. Inspection
Tape is removed, edges checked, and any touch-ups completed before your decorator leaves.

Spray Application
Spray application requires specialist setup and masking time. Both are reflected in the figures above. The result is a factory-smooth finish that brush application cannot match.
