Firth of Clyde coast
Westerly winds and rain off the Firth mean exterior paint on seafront villas and harled homes wears faster than inland, and painters time their exterior jobs for the drier months.
Large Victorian houses in Ayr and Troon have high ceilings and decorative plasterwork, and many homeowners book interior work for the winter.

Painting outside in Scotland: weather and permissions
Scottish weather shortens the exterior painting season: higher rainfall in the west, cold winters and strong winds on the coast. Sandstone tenements and stone villas are rarely painted, but harled (roughcast) walls, sash windows, stairwells and common closes are regular jobs. Inside, high ceilings and ornate cornicing in older flats take extra time.
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.
