Exterior Painting
Farington's architecture combines beautiful Victorian designs with practical post-war homes. Each building style needs its own special approach to exterior painting. We understand how to protect and enhance both historic charm and modern functionality.
Weather-Ready Solutions for Northwest England
Local weather can be tough on exterior paint. We deal with lots of rain and changing temperatures throughout the year. That's why we use high-quality paints like Dulux Weathershield and Johnstone's Stormshield. These paints flex with temperature changes to prevent cracking. They also keep moisture out, which is essential in our damp climate.
Material-Specific Approaches
Different exterior surfaces need different painting methods:
- Brick walls need special breathable paints that let moisture move naturally
- Pebbledash surfaces, found on many post-war homes, require textured coatings
- Wooden features, especially on Victorian homes, need waterproof oil-based or latex paints
Historic homes near Farington Park need extra care. Their detailed woodwork and stonework require careful preparation and painting to preserve their unique character.
Environmental Considerations
More homeowners now choose eco-friendly paint options. We use low-VOC paints from quality brands like Farrow & Ball. These paints are perfect for older properties because they:
- Let traditional building materials breathe
- Provide excellent protection against our Northwest weather
- Are better for the environment
We know Farington's unique needs. Our painting methods don't just make homes look beautiful - they protect them against the weather while preserving their historic value. Contact us today to discuss how we can help transform your home!

Here's how homes in Farington embrace different colour schemes that match both old and new buildings in the area.
Victorian Homes
Victorian homes along Stanifield Lane often feature elegant heritage colours. Farrow & Ball's "Duck Green" is a popular choice for living rooms. This deep, rich colour works perfectly with original features like decorative coving and ceiling roses.
Post-War Homes
In Farington Moss, many post-war homes use Little Greene's "French Grey" for their interiors. This neutral shade brightens smaller rooms while keeping a traditional Lancashire feel. It creates a warm welcome, making it perfect for family living rooms.
New-Build Homes
New-build homes near Wheelton Lane tend to use modern colour schemes. Many homeowners choose clean whites and sophisticated greys like Dulux's "Polished Pebble". These colours work well with modern features and keep homes looking fresh.
Exterior Colour Choices
For outside walls and doors, Victorian homes often have deep wine reds or rich greens. These colours match beautifully with the red brick walls. Post-war homes with pebbledash finish look great in light neutral colours. These shades not only look good but also stand up well to Lancashire's tough weather.
These colour choices show what makes Farington special. They respect the area's history while working well for modern life. From period properties to new builds, these popular colours help create Farington's unique look and feel.
Consider these colour schemes for your next home project!

Local Experts
Local Weather Conditions
Farington gets a lot more rain than most places - about 33% more than the UK average. Being between the River Lostock and River Ribble also makes our area quite humid. These conditions mean we need to use special paints and techniques to protect your home.
Types of Local Properties
We're experts at working with all the different types of houses in Farington. Many homes around Stanifield Lane were built in the 1950s and 60s, while Chain House Lane has older period properties. About 45% of local houses are post-war builds, and lots have pebbledash walls that need specific treatment and paint types.
Home Ownership and Generational Properties
Most people in Farington (68%) own their homes, and many properties stay in the same family for generations. This means we often work with houses that have multiple layers of old paint. We know how to properly prepare and restore these surfaces. Whether it's a red brick Victorian house or a newer home near Wade Hall, we know exactly what approach to take.
Historical Features
Our area's connection to Leyland Motors has shaped many local houses. Early 1900s workers' homes have special features we know well, like cast iron gutters that need particular paint protection. We're also skilled at maintaining original sash windows.
Damp and Moisture Challenges
Being close to Farington Moss brings extra moisture challenges, especially in winter. We use special damp-resistant paints that work well in these conditions. We also check how local soil types affect your foundations, spotting potential damp issues early.
Conservation Knowledge
