Fence painting work in Ireland

Fence work is outdoor painting with a weather window: the timber has to be dry, which in Ireland narrows it to a run of good days. It is straightforward, it is often bought alongside garden work, and it repeats every couple of years for the same clients.

What comes up in this trade

  • Fence panels treated or stained in the dry months
  • Sheds and garden structures
  • Gates and timber boundaries
  • Repeat treatment every two to three years

What the work needs

  • Sprayer or brush and the treatment for exterior timber
  • A run of dry days to work in
