Beautiful exterior finishes prepared with care, built to protect
At Vivid Decor, we provide professional residential exterior painting and decorating for homeowners across Exeter and the surrounding areas. Whether your property needs a full exterior repaint, tired masonry refreshed, timber windows restored or exterior woodwork brought back to life, our team delivers careful preparation and long-lasting finishes.
Your home’s exterior is the first thing people see, but it also has to work hard against the Devon weather. Rain, wind, sunlight and changing temperatures can all wear down paintwork over time. That is why exterior decorating needs the right products, proper preparation and a finish that is designed to protect as well as improve appearance.
We regularly work across Exeter and nearby areas including Heavitree, St Leonards, St Thomas, Topsham, Pinhoe, Exminster, Alphington and Cranbrook.
Exterior Decorating That Protects Your Home
Exterior decorating is about more than making your property look fresh. When completed properly, it helps protect surfaces from weather damage, moisture and general wear.
We work on a wide range of exterior surfaces including masonry, render, timber windows, doors, fascia boards, soffits, sills, gates, railings and other suitable exterior details. Each surface is assessed properly before work begins, so we can choose the right preparation method and coating for the job.
Every exterior project starts with the groundwork. Loose paint, cracks, rough areas and minor defects need to be dealt with before any final coats are applied. This is what helps the finish look cleaner and last longer.
Our Residential Exterior Decorating Process
Clean, Careful, and Considerate, we don’t consider a job finished until you’re completely happy.
We know exterior work needs to be planned properly, especially around access, weather and the condition of the property. Our process is clear, practical and focused on achieving a durable finish.
Our process is straightforward and transparent:
Masonry and Render Painting
Masonry and render can make up a large part of your home’s exterior, so when it starts to look faded, stained or patchy, the whole property can feel tired.
We repaint exterior walls using suitable masonry coatings designed for outdoor conditions. Before painting, we check the surface for cracks, loose material and areas where the previous coating may have failed.
Good preparation is especially important with exterior walls. Painting over damaged or unstable surfaces may look better for a short time, but it will not give the best long-term result.
A fresh masonry or render finish can brighten your home, improve kerb appeal and help protect the surface underneath.
Timber Windows, Doors and Exterior Woodwork
Exterior timber needs regular care to stay in good condition. Window frames, doors, sills, fascias and soffits are constantly exposed to the weather, and once paint begins to crack or peel, moisture can reach the wood underneath.
We prepare exterior woodwork properly before applying suitable primers and finishes. This may include sanding, filling small defects, removing loose coatings and priming bare areas before the final coats are applied.
Freshly painted timber windows and doors can completely lift the look of a property. They also help protect the wood from water damage, swelling and general deterioration.
