Powder coating and on-site respraying in Cambridgeshire

If your building in Cambridgeshire or the East of England is listed, or in a conservation area, check with the council before changing the colour of the frontage.

Aluminium frame being resprayed on site with masked glass

A faded or chalky frontage in Cambridgeshire can often be refinished on site, which usually costs less than replacing sound frames. Clear photos of your Cambridgeshire frames usually let us price a respray, although poor adhesion or corrosion may need a charged diagnostic visit.

What do we fix in Cambridgeshire?

Painting anodised framesAnodised aluminium needs thorough cleaning and a compatible primer before paint will hold.
Powder coating off siteRemovable parts go to a coating plant to be stripped, pre-treated and oven-cured. The film is tough, but the parts have to come off the building.
Colour change for a rebrandFrames, doors and panels can be recoloured to a RAL reference, so a new tenant need not replace sound metalwork.

How much does it cost in Cambridgeshire?

Expect £395 to £1,695 ex VAT per frontage. On-site spraying in Cambridgeshire or elsewhere in the East of England can be arranged out of hours, so the frontage can be masked and painted around trading. The price we confirm in writing includes travel and access.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Cambridgeshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Cambridgeshire, including Cambridge, Ely, March, Peterborough.

Can a shopfront be powder coated on site?

No, true powder coating needs an oven, so it cannot be done on an installed frame. On-site work uses liquid paint sprayed in place. If you want powder coating, parts must be removed, which suits small sections and panels better than a whole fixed frontage.

Can you respray anodised aluminium?

Yes, with the right preparation. The surface must be thoroughly cleaned and keyed, then primed with a product suited to anodised metal. Once painted, the frame loses its metallic look and will need repainting in future, so consider that before going ahead.

Do I need permission to change my shopfront colour?

Sometimes. A listed building may need listed building consent, and a lease may restrict colours. A conservation area can bring extra planning controls, so ask your council. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and the council makes the decision in each case.
