Shop Front Spraying Services
Ascot Decorators sprays aluminium, powder-coated steel and timber shopfronts using two-pack polyurethane systems applied through HVLP or airless equipment, with full masking and out-of-hours scheduling.
Aluminium and Powder-Coated Steel Preparation
Aluminium shopfront frames carry a factory coating or anodised finish. Paint adhesion fails unless we dewax the surface first.
We solvent-wipe the frame, apply an etch primer, then spray a two-pack topcoat. Powder-coated steel receives the same treatment. The etch primer bonds to the metal oxide layer and gives the topcoat a mechanical key.
Timber Fascia Preparation
Older Victorian shopfronts in the area often retain original timber fascias. We strip flaking paint, fill splits, and sand back to a stable surface. A wood primer seals the grain before the spray topcoat. Where rot has set in we splice in new sections and match the existing profile.
Two-Pack Spray System
We use a two-pack polyurethane or acrylic system for shopfront painting. The hardener cross-links with the resin to form a durable film.
HVLP spray delivers an even coat without brush marks. Airless spray suits larger fascias where speed matters. Both methods produce a factory finish that lasts longer than brush-applied single-pack paints.
Out-of-Hours Masking and Pedestrian Management
Shopfronts face the pavement. Masking film covers the glass, surrounding stonework, and ground surface. We cordon the work zone and spray during closed hours.
Saturday night to Sunday morning is the typical window. The pavement reopens by Monday trading. For broader commercial out-of-hours scheduling options, see our commercial painting page.
Conservation-Area Colour Consent
Ascot High Street and parts of Sunninghill Road fall within conservation-sensitive zones. Changing a shopfront colour often requires planning consent.
We help you choose colours that match the area character and guide you through the approval process before starting work. Returning a fascia to its original colour usually avoids the consent requirement.

Here’s How It Works
1. Site Survey
We measure the fascia, frame, and stallriser. We check for mixed materials, flaking paint, and rot. We note pedestrian flow and agree the access window.
2. Masking and Cordoning
We cover the glass, adjacent stonework, and pavement with masking film. We set up barriers to keep pedestrians clear of the spray zone.
3. Surface Preparation
We dewax aluminium frames with solvent. We strip loose paint from timber. We apply etch primer to metal and wood primer to timber.
4. Spray Application
We spray the two-pack topcoat in even passes. The hardener activates as we mix. The film cures within hours.
5. Unmask and Reopen
We remove the masking film and barriers. The pavement reopens before your next trading day.
Shop Front Spraying Costs in Ascot
A typical shopfront spray repaint on Ascot High Street runs GBP 900 to GBP 1,600 for a fascia, frame, and stallriser approximately five metres wide. Call 01344 964866 for a fixed-price quote.
Small boutique fascia and frame at three to four metres wide runs GBP 700 to GBP 1,100. Standard retail fascia, frame and stallriser at five to six metres runs GBP 900 to GBP 1,600. Large parade shopfronts at eight to ten metres wide with mixed materials run GBP 1,800 to GBP 2,900.
Material Type
Aluminium frames need dewaxing and etch primer. Timber fascias need stripping and wood primer. Mixed-material shopfronts take longer to prepare than single-material ones.
Surface Condition
Flaking paint adds stripping time. Rot in timber fascias requires splice repairs. Powder-coated steel in good condition needs minimal prep.
Access Constraints
Out-of-hours work on Ascot High Street requires pedestrian barriers and weekend scheduling. Tighter access windows increase labour costs.
Trade Insight
Many Ascot retailers refresh before Royal Ascot week in June. Booking the spray window in March or April keeps the slot open ahead of the busy period.
Spraying costs less per square metre than brush application once the masking is in place. Shopfronts wider than eight metres usually justify the spray setup. For residential exterior coating on properties adjacent to retail premises, see our exterior painting page.
