Hillside terraces and the bay

In Mumbles and along the bay, painted render and colourful fronts face salt and wind, while student houses in Brynmill and Uplands keep decorators busy each summer.

Swansea painting and decorating FAQs
Do Swansea painters cover Gower?
Many do. Add your postcode to find painters who cover your area.
How do painters cope with Swansea's rain?
They plan exterior work around dry spells and keep interior work for wet days. Some flexibility on dates helps.
Exterior painting in Wales: what to plan for
Wales has high rainfall, particularly in the valleys and uplands, and many exposed coastal towns. Exterior painting needs a run of dry days, and pebble-dashed and rendered terraces on steep streets often need scaffolding or towers. Brightly painted render is a tradition in many Welsh towns, so colour choice is part of the job.
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.
