Exterior Painting in Co. Kildare
8 businesses offering exterior painting across Co. Kildare.
Exterior painting in Ireland is decided by the weather far more than by the paint. A wet and windy climate means surfaces need to be genuinely dry before coating, and the practical season runs from late spring into early autumn. Painters book up across that window, so the work is usually arranged well in advance of when you want it done.
Most of the job is preparation, and that is where quotes differ. Washing down to remove dirt and organic growth, scraping back flaking material, treating any mould or algae, filling cracks in render, and priming bare patches all happen before the first proper coat. A quote that is notably cheaper than the others is often quoting less preparation rather than less profit, so it is worth asking specifically what surface preparation is included and how many coats are allowed for.
The right product depends on the substrate. Masonry and render want a breathable masonry paint, since trapping moisture in a wall causes more damage than leaving it uncoated; older solid walls in particular need a coating that lets moisture move. Timber fascias, soffits and windows need the rot checked and made good first, because paint over soft timber fails quickly. Access matters too: anything above ground floor brings ladders, towers or scaffolding into the price, so confirm whether access equipment is included and that the business carries public liability insurance.

Common questions
What time of year should exterior painting be done in Ireland?
Late spring through early autumn, when there is a reasonable run of dry days and surfaces can dry out properly between washing and coating. Painters are busiest in exactly that window, so booking ahead matters more than it does for interior work.
How long should exterior paint last?
It depends on exposure and preparation far more than on the brand. A sheltered wall holds up considerably longer than a gable that takes the prevailing wind and rain. Where coatings fail early, inadequate preparation or painting onto a damp surface is the usual reason.
What should a quote include?
Ask what preparation is covered — washing, scraping, treating growth, filling and priming — how many coats are quoted, which product is being used, and whether access equipment such as scaffolding or a tower is in the price. Those four things explain most of the difference between quotes for the same house.
Can render be painted with any masonry paint?
Not safely. Render and older solid walls need a breathable coating so moisture can escape; sealing a damp wall behind an impermeable film tends to cause blistering and can drive damp inwards. The painter should identify the substrate before specifying a product.
