Fence painting work in Co. Galway

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.

A city county gives you the mix that is hardest to find elsewhere: enough density to fill a week without long drives, and enough variety that the work does not disappear when one type of client goes quiet. Regular domestic work forms the base, and end-of-tenancy and office contracts sit on top of it.
