Window Frame Painting Services
Sash Window Painting
Original sash windows have a specific painting sequence. The two sashes must be moved to specific positions. Paint must not bridge the gap between sashes or coat the pulleys. We also offer dedicated conservatory painting services.
Casement Window Painting
Each casement opens on hinges. The frame surround and sill are painted after the casements are complete. See our front door painting page for exterior joinery.
Exterior Primer and Topcoat
We use microporous exterior primer and compatible topcoats. Standard interior paint on an exterior window frame fails rapidly.
Conservation Area Colour Advice
White and cream are the most common in North Oxford. We advise on colours that suit the property period. See our exterior painting page for full scope.


Here’s How It Works
1. Window Assessment
We examine each window, check existing paint, look for soft timber or failed putty.
2. Surface Preparation
Loose paint removed. Failed putty replaced. Bare timber primed with exterior primer.
3. Sash Sequence Painting
Both sashes moved to the correct positions. Each section painted in sequence.
4. Frame and Sill Painting
External frame, surround, and sill painted after sash work is dry.
5. Inspection
Glass masking removed while paint is slightly soft. Windows checked for runs and missed areas.

Window Type
Original sash windows with two movable sashes take longer than fixed or simple casement windows.
Preparation Needed
Failed putty, soft timber, or heavily built-up paint layers add time.
Number of Windows
Projects covering all windows are more efficient per window. Call 01865 537996 for a precise quote.
