Exterior painting in North East England: what to plan for
The North East is cooler and often windy, particularly along the coast where North Sea weather and salt air shorten the life of exterior paint. The outdoor season is a little shorter than in the south, so decorators often book exterior jobs for late spring and summer and keep interior work for the winter.
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.
