Professional playhouse painting - refresh the look and protect the wood. Fresh colours that children love, plus weather protection to extend the life of the playhouse.
### Fresh Look, Longer Life
Wooden playhouses need protection. **Paint fades, wood weathers, and bare timber rots.** A fresh coat every few years keeps it looking good and lasting longer.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Paint on a dry day with no rain forecast for 24 hours. The wood should be dry too - wait a few days after rain before painting.

Frequently Asked Questions about Playhouse painting in Ottery St Mary
What paint do you use?
Exterior wood treatment or fence paint. Both protect against weather and come in various colours. We'll advise on what works best for your playhouse.
How often should a playhouse be painted?
Every 2-3 years depending on exposure. South-facing playhouses fade faster. Annual touch-ups on high-wear areas help.
Can children help paint?
If you want! We can do the hard bits and leave a section for kids to finish. Makes it their own. Just let us know.
What about repairs first?
If there's rotten wood, that should be fixed before painting - paint won't stop rot spreading. We can do both in one visit.
