See prices guideMasonry and Render Painting in Cathedrals — FAQs.
How long does masonry paint last?
Quality breathable masonry paint on properly prepped walls typically lasts 10–15 years. Exposure, substrate and prep quality all matter — we'll give you a realistic figure for your property.
Can you paint pebbledash?
Yes — pebbledash drinks paint (it can need twice the coverage of smooth render), which is why some quotes look suspiciously cheap. Ours are honest about the material it really takes.
My render is cracked — can you still paint it?
Cracks get routed and filled with flexible exterior filler first; blown sections are patched. Painting over cracks without repair just prints them through the new coat — we don't do that.
How much should I budget for masonry painting in Cathedrals?
Every job is priced individually on size, surface condition and finish. Send a few photos of your Cathedrals property on WhatsApp for a free fixed quote — usually the same day, with no hidden extras.
How soon can you start in Cathedrals?
Smaller Cathedrals jobs can often start within the week; larger projects are usually booked one to three weeks out. Tell us your dates and we'll be straight about what's realistic.
Do you cover the rest of Southwark?
Yes — Cathedrals is part of our coverage across the London Borough of Southwark, alongside Southwark, Borough, Bankside, Borough Market. One local team, one standard, across the whole borough.
