TRADITIONAL PAINTING

Our first using the Sikkens Rubbol Satura range of paints, after preparation all bare timber is primed, we then apply an undercoat, this will be followed by a surface fill to remove any imperfections and then spot primed.

Once completed we are ready to apply our final topcoat in a satin or gloss finish. Colour matching is available if needed. The Sikkens Rubbol Satura range has a proven track record for maximum protection and durability.

The Heritage & Restoration Group is always looking to provide the best service possible for our clients.  For projects that require that little extra restoration we offer our second choice of painting system using Linseed oil fillers and paints.

This option requires all paint coats to be removed from the sashes for the best results. Please see our Restoration Grade II Package.

Once stripped the windows are now ready for the paint application. Linseed Oil paints have many benefits from modern day paints. It is environmentally friendly, pretty much lasts forever without the need to be reapplied and doesn’t flake or peel.  It doesn’t have a strong smell, need primers or undercoats and comes in a range a colours.

Should reapplication be needed it is just a case of wiping on Linseed oil to relieve the existing paint. With an estimated re-coat time of 10 years.  It can also be applied to other surfaces with equally fantastic results, wood won’t rot, iron won’t rust and plaster won’t crumble.

Linseed Oil Paint

Linseed oil paint can be applied on any surface. It protects the substrate from weather and wind, the ravages of time and the changing seasons. In Sweden, as in the rest of Europe, there is a long tradition of painting buildings and interiors with linseed oil paint. The reason the paint has survived for 500 years is because it really does provide protection to the substrate on which you are painting.
