New estates and a market town
A big share of Ashford's homes are less than twenty years old, so the most common jobs are first redecorations – filling settlement cracks, replacing plain contract white with your own colours and painting stairs and landings.
Older homes and cottages in the town centre and villages bring weatherboarding, tile hanging and traditional finishes.

Painting outside in South East England: weather and permissions
The South East is one of the drier, sunnier parts of the UK, which gives decorators a decent window for exterior work from spring to early autumn. Coastal towns along the Channel are a different story: salt air and south-westerly winds are hard on render, timber windows and gloss, so seafront homes usually need repainting more often.
Repainting in the existing colour rarely needs permission, but listed buildings, and homes in conservation areas covered by an Article 4 direction, can need consent to paint the front or change its colour. More on exterior painting.
