Garage Door Painting Services
Steel and Metal Garage Doors
Steel up-and-over doors are the most common type on homes built from the 1950s onwards. Any chip or scratch allows rust to take hold. We treat rust with a converter, apply a metal primer, and finish in the client’s chosen colour.
Timber Garage Doors
Timber doors are common on Victorian and Edwardian properties in Southborough and Bidborough. We strip back loose paint, sand the surface, and apply the correct exterior primer. A well-prepared timber garage door lasts eight to twelve years.
GRP and Composite Doors
GRP composite doors are standard on newer builds across Pembury and Paddock Wood. Standard paint will not bond to GRP without specialist preparation. We use specialist GRP primers that key the surface properly.
uPVC Garage Doors
uPVC garage doors can be successfully painted using specialist plastic primer systems. Where the door is structurally sound, painting is a cost-effective alternative to full replacement.
Colour Changes
Anthracite grey, black, deep green, and navy blue are popular choices alongside contemporary window frames. Combining garage door painting with a wider exterior painting project saves a second site visit.
How Garage Door Painting Works
1. Door Assessment
We check the surface condition, material type, existing paint adhesion, and any rust or damage.
2. Surface Preparation
Loose paint removed, rust treated on metal doors, and all surfaces cleaned and abraded for adhesion.
3. Priming
The correct primer for the door material is applied and allowed to dry fully.
4. Topcoat Application
Two finish coats applied once primer is fully dry. Application method chosen based on door type and access.
5. Final Inspection
All edges, panels, and junctions checked. Touch-ups completed before we leave.
