Powder coating and on-site respraying Scotland

On-site spraying in Scotland or elsewhere in the area can be arranged out of hours, so the frontage can be masked and painted around trading. If your building in Scotland or the area is listed, or in a conservation area, check with the council before changing the colour of the frontage.

What do we fix in Scotland?

On-site wet sprayingFrames are cleaned, abraded, primed and sprayed in place, with glass and surroundings masked. It suits fixed frames that cannot come out.

Touch-ups and scratch repairsLocal damage is feathered back and blended. On older finishes, a small repair can show, so a whole section may look better.

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.

How much does it cost in Scotland?

As a guide, allow £395 to £1,695 ex VAT per frontage. Chains and landlords with sites in Scotland and across the area can use a single RAL reference to keep their frontages consistent. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Scotland?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Scotland, including Aberdeen, Airdrie, Ayr, Bearsden. Remote areas are by arrangement.

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.

How long does an on-site respray last?

It depends on preparation, paint system and exposure, and it will not usually match an oven-cured coat for durability. A properly prepared frame can hold its finish for years with regular cleaning. Coastal sites and frames with existing corrosion tend to need attention sooner.

Can I keep trading during a respray?

Usually yes. Work can be split into sections or arranged out of hours, overnight or at weekends. Some paints smell strongly and need time to cure, so we agree access, masking and the working area with you before starting.
