Masonry, render, fascias and front doors — weatherproof finishes that lift the whole front of the house and stand up to a Black Country winter.
Nothing dates an Elm Park house like tired, flaking render or a faded front door. And nothing lifts it faster than a proper exterior repaint. We wash it down, sort the loose and flaking bits, prime bare patches, and use the right weatherproof paint for masonry, render or pebbledash — so it looks sharp and stays that way through the wet.
Brick, render and pebbledash cleaned, prepped and painted in breathable weatherproof masonry paint.
The bits up top that everyone forgets — painted neat so the whole roofline looks cared-for.
A repainted front door changes the whole look of a house. Doors, frames and window surrounds done properly.
Cleaned, scraped, primed and sealed first — because exterior paint only lasts if what’s under it is sound.

Usually not. Algae is a north-facing and damp-shade problem, not a structural one. Cleaning and treating it, then coating, costs far less than re-rendering and it is what most Elm Park walls actually need.
On a modern cavity wall, often yes. On a solid 1930s wall a non-breathable paint traps moisture in the brick and you get damp inside. The coating has to suit the wall, not just the colour chart.
On a properly cleaned and stabilised wall, ten years or so. On one that was coated over algae and chalk, two. As with everything on a wall, the preparation is the job.
