Using the Extreme Heat to Your Advantage: Perfect Conditions for Pool Side Painting.

The recent stretch of extreme heat has been great for swimmers and pool owners alike, and it has also created an ideal window for essential maintenance. With the longest dry spell on record now easing, timber, concrete and other porous pool side surfaces have dried thoroughly - providing perfect conditions for repainting before the wetter British weather returns.

Why This Weather Matters for Pool Maintenance.
Dry, stable surfaces mean better adhesion, smoother application and longer lasting results. As we move into late Summer and Autumn, now is an excellent time to plan and complete exterior pool related decoration and refurbishment, including:

- Pool surrounds and walkways
- Changing room doors, windows and cladding
- Outbuildings, pump house structures and storage areas
- Timber features such as seating, fencing and shelters
- Commercial pool facilities and leisure centre exteriors

With more than 80 years of specialist paint manufacturing experience, we supply high performance coatings designed specifically for demanding environments - from domestic & residential pools to educational and commercial leisure centres. Squash Court and Tennis Court Paints also available.

If you need guidance on the correct coating system for your pool or surrounding structures, our Technical Team is here to help. Simply email or call for expert advice. See our ADVICE GUIDE HERE.
