Exterior Painting
Broughton's homes showcase diverse architectural styles, from Georgian properties near St. Mary's Church to Victorian terraces. The village faces unique painting challenges due to its high humidity, frequent rain, and changing temperatures throughout the year.
Adapting to Weather Challenges
Our climate requires special paint solutions. We use traditional limewash for stone cottages and breathable silicate paints for brick facades. For modern homes with rendered surfaces, we apply advanced coatings like Dulux Weathershield. These protect against our local damp conditions.
Material-Specific Approaches
We tailor our approach to Broughton's different building types:
- Brick Georgian homes need mineral-based paints to prevent trapped moisture
- Timber-framed cottages require flexible coatings that adjust to wood movement
- Stone buildings work best with traditional lime-based finishes
- Modern rendered homes need weather-resistant paint systems
Many homeowners choose colors that match Broughton's countryside setting. Popular choices include sage green and warm cream. These colors preserve historical authenticity while complementing our rural surroundings.
Weather-Smart Application Strategies
Local weather means timing is crucial for exterior painting. The best time is between late spring and early autumn. During these months, morning dew is lighter and afternoon humidity is more manageable.
Our local expertise includes:
- Starting early to make the most of good weather
- Using primers that resist moisture and dry quickly
- Applying several thin coats instead of thick layers
- Special drying techniques for humid days
These methods create lasting finishes that protect homes against our challenging weather. Our work preserves the character of properties throughout the village, from the historic center to newer areas.

Interior Color Choices
Inside homes, neutral colors with bold accent walls are a favorite choice. Many homeowners choose warm oat or greige as base colors. They add interest with Sage Green or Navy feature walls. This mix creates modern spaces that still feel connected to Broughton's country setting.
Heritage Colors in Period Homes
Near St. Mary's Church, period homes often use classic heritage colors. Two-tone kitchens are very popular here. Many combine Light Grey or Chalk White upper cabinets with Pine Green or Teal lower units. This gives old homes a fresh look while keeping their historic charm.
Traditional Exteriors
Broughton's Georgian brick houses often feature traditional Red or Warm Ochre exteriors. These pair well with Cream or Slate Grey window frames. Front doors make a statement in Oxford Blue or Forest Green. The village's stone cottages look best with breathable lime-based paints in Chalk White or Buff shades.
Modern Color Trends
In newer areas near King George's Field, homes tend to use modern neutral colors. White, Beige, and Pebble Grey are common choices for exterior walls. These simple backgrounds work well with bolder accent colors. This approach gives homes lasting appeal while standing up to local weather conditions.
Consider these color choices for your home transformation, and reach out to us for expert advice on your next project!
Additional Services
Moisture Issues
Many homes in Broughton struggle with damp issues. We tackle these using special anti-mould treatments and moisture-resistant paints. We also fix efflorescence - those white, chalky marks you might see on your walls. We use professional sealants that let your walls breathe while keeping water out.
Outdoor Wooden Item Protection
The local weather can be harsh on outdoor wooden items. We protect fences, decking, and garden sheds with strong weather-resistant finishes. We suggest getting these checked yearly to keep them looking good and lasting longer.

Pre-Painting Repairs
Before painting, we often need to fix small problems. This includes repairing wooden parts, fixing plaster, and filling gaps around windows and doors. These repairs help us achieve a better finish that protects your home for longer.
