Georgian streets, flint and harbour air
The city centre is a conservation area with many listed buildings. Painted render, sash windows and front doors are usually repainted in traditional colours, and breathable paints suit older walls.
Around the harbour and coast, salty air and exposure to wind mean exterior woodwork and render need more frequent maintenance.

Exterior painting in South East England: what to plan for
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.
Most homeowners can repaint the outside of their house without asking anyone. The exceptions are listed buildings and some conservation areas, where a change of colour or finish may need the council's approval. More on exterior painting.
