Paint Analysis and Matching across Cardiff and South Wales
If you are looking at Paint Analysis and Matching in Cardiff and South Wales, the timber is only half the decision. Because the area is mainly valleys terraces, Victorian maritime villas and civic Portland stone frontages, no two openings measure quite the same. The weather does the rest: very high rainfall with strong Atlantic and Bristol Channel exposure here, and prolonged wetting decay and finish failure on valley-facing elevations as the predictable result. The part that matters is matching the historic colour rather than defaulting to brilliant white.
Manufacture only starts once the survey figures are agreed with you in writing. Give us the basics and you will have a written figure, not a range that moves later.
One thing that catches people out here: valleys terraces share a repeating bay and sash format that suits batch manufacture.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Cardiff and South Wales?
Yes. We cover the whole of Cardiff and South Wales including Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, Barry and the surrounding villages. Valleys terraces share a repeating bay and sash format that suits batch manufacture. Because very high rainfall with strong Atlantic and Bristol Channel exposure, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
Can you work on a listed building?
Yes, and a significant share of our work is listed or conservation area. We can supply drawings and section details to support a listed building consent or planning application, though the consent itself remains the owner's responsibility.
Do you fit, or supply only?
Both. Supply-only is common for trade and contractor clients. For private clients we usually recommend supply and fit, because responsibility for the fit and the finish then sits in one place.
Do you work in hardwood or softwood?
Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.
Can you price from drawings?
Yes. Send a drawing set or a schedule and we will price against it. If anything is ambiguous we will query it before quoting rather than assume and reprice later.
