Exterior Transformation in Emneth with Sandtex Cornish Cream
There’s nothing like a fresh coat of paint to completely transform the look of a property. This week, I completed an exterior painting project in Emneth, giving this home a new lease of life with Sandtex Cornish Cream masonry paint.

Preparation is Key
Before any paint touched the walls, the property was fully prepped to ensure the best possible finish and long-lasting results. The walls were:

Jet washed to remove dirt, moss, and surface debris.
Treated with a fungicidal wash to prevent mould, algae, and future growth.
Good preparation makes all the difference — it ensures the paint adheres properly and protects the property for years to come.

The Paint: Sandtex Cornish Cream
For this project, the homeowners chose Sandtex Cornish Cream, a classic and timeless shade that really brightens up the exterior while still keeping a warm, traditional look. Sandtex is known for its durability, weather resistance, and excellent coverage, making it the perfect choice for UK homes.

If you’re looking to give your home a fresh new look, exterior painting with high-quality products like Sandtex is one of the most effective ways to add kerb appeal and long-term protection.
