Wooden Window Spraying in Finchley
Timber windows sprayed across Finchley — Edwardian sashes, 1930s casements and bays finished in breathable microporous paint.
Stripped back properly and finished thinly, so period frames stay sound and keep working.
What's involved
- 01Strip — failing coatings removed to sound timber.
- 02Repair — fill, sand, and treat any bare or exposed wood.
- 03Mask — glass and beads protected for crisp lines.
- 04Spray — microporous colour in thin coats that let timber breathe.
- 05Test — every window opened and closed before we leave.
Timber windows in Finchley
East Finchley and the older streets off Ballards Lane and Regents Park Road carry the Edwardian sashes; the 1930s streets add timber casements and bay frames. Decades of thick brush coats are what eventually jam them — thin sprayed films and cleared runners undo that.
Rot gets flagged and quoted before painting begins. Nothing decayed gets painted over.
Planning and permission
Most Finchley streets sit outside conservation areas, but anything listed or protected gets checked with Barnet before an exterior colour change is quoted.
Questions & Answers
Can you spray the sash windows on my Edwardian semi?
Yes — Edwardian sashes and casements across N2, N3 and N12 are stripped, made good and sprayed in microporous paint.
Do you paint over flaking coats?
No — failing paint is stripped back to a sound edge first; burying it just schedules the next failure.
Do I need permission in Finchley?
Most Finchley streets are not conservation areas, but we check with Barnet where a property might be listed or protected.
Can you match existing colours?
Yes — like-for-like or a new agreed palette, confirmed before work starts.
Will the windows still open easily?
Yes — thin films and cleared beads and runners keep sashes and casements working.
