About Us, The Home of Swimming Pool Paints
About Technical Paint Services, The Home of Swimming Pool Paints.
Welcome to our specialist site dedicated to Swimming Pool Paints and Coatings. We’re Technical Paint Services - an independent paint manufacturer and supplier, serving clients since 1946. With over 80 years of expertise at your disposal, you can trust us for all your pool finishing needs.
We do not offer decorating or application services; instead, we focus solely on manufacturing and supplying high-quality coatings.
Our extensive range includes:
Chlorinated Rubber Swimming Pool Paint - perfect for both underwater and above-water applications, including hydrotherapy pools, spas and even canine or equine therapy pools (as long as they're regularly pressure washed).
Acrylic Water‑Based Swimming Pool Paint - ideal for safe, effective pool refurbishments.
Anti‑Slip Finishes, Chemical & Urine‑Resistant Coatings, and High‑Performance Multi‑Surface Paints - suitable for walls, floors, changing areas and surrounding structures.
Specialty options for paddling pools, ornamental ponds, water features, Baptism pools, and more, including a fine anti‑slip finish for aluminium copings. If you're dealing with a previously lined or “marbelite” pool - whether coated or not - our Technical Team is ready to advise.
Autumn Painting & Maintenance Advice for Swimming Pools.
Autumn is a crucial season for anyone responsible for swimming pools, pool houses or associated external structures. As temperatures begin to fall and daylight hours shorten, conditions often become ideal for carrying out essential painting and maintenance before Winter sets in.
Understanding the Autumn Window.
By the meteorological calendar, Autumn in the UK runs from 1 September to 30 November. During these months, surfaces typically remain dry for longer, humidity levels stabilise, and the intense heat of Summer has passed - all of which help create reliable conditions for applying specialist swimming pool coatings and exterior paints.
Why Autumn is Ideal for Pool Painting.
Autumn provides a practical balance of cooler temperatures and manageable weather patterns. This makes it an excellent time to tackle projects such as:
- Repainting swimming pools and pool surrounds
- Refreshing pool houses, changing rooms and pump‑house structures
- Treating external plant, silos and industrial equipment
- Protecting roofs, walkways and timber features
Dry spells at this time of year also allow damp surfaces to fully dry out - essential before applying any coating system.
Weather Considerations.
While Autumn is generally favourable, it’s important to remain aware of sudden heavy showers or thunderstorms, which can affect freshly applied coatings, particularly water‑based systems. Always check the forecast and allow each coat to cure fully as per the Technical Data Sheet. Remember - “Touch dry” does not mean cured or recoatable.

"I just wanted to thank you (I think it might have been Chris that I spoke to) for the speedy delivery and excellent service that you provided. Thought you might like to see a photo of the finished result, the paint was a joy to apply and the colour was perfect. Many thanks."

You should start your seasonal maintenance process by identifying the surface (substrate) to be painted, it’s general condition and what you want the end result to look like (such as colour, texture and sheen). Once you have established your ideal end-result, refer to our Substrate Index for options and take a few invaluable moments to read our Painting Guides - see below.
