TOP 3 ‘MUST’s WHEN PAINTING YOUR TIMBER FENCE
Your fence deserves a glow-up too!
A freshly painted timber fence doesn’t just boost your home’s curb appeal - it also protects your wood from weather and wear.
Here are 3 must-know tips before you start:
-
1️⃣ PREP FOR THE WEATHER
Painting a fence in the wrong weather is a recipe for disaster.
Choose a mild, dry day to avoid rain (or wind) ruining your hard work or heat drying the paint too fast.
💡PAINT IT CO Pro Tip: Aim to paint in the early morning or late afternoon when the sun isn’t at its peak for a smoother, longer-lasting finish!
-
2️⃣ PREP LIKE A PRO
A clean surface = a flawless finish.
Remove dirt, mould, and flaking paint with a stiff brush or pressure washer.
Sand any rough areas to ensure the paint sticks evenly.
💡PAINT IT CO Pro Tip: Use a wood primer first for long-lasting results - it’s like sunscreen for your timber!
-
3️⃣ CHOOSE THE RIGHT PAINT
Not all paints are created equal.
For timber fences, you’ll need durable, weather-resistant paint that can withstand rain, UV rays, and curious pets.
💡PAINT IT CO Pro Tip: Darker shades hide dirt better, while lighter colours can make your yard look more spacious. Go bold or go classic - it’s your call!
