Conservatory Spraying: A Complete Guide

Quick answer

Conservatory spraying recolours the uPVC frames, roof trims and finials of your existing conservatory in situ. A typical conservatory takes one to two days, costs a fraction of replacement, and an anthracite grey finish makes even an older conservatory read as a modern garden room.

Conservatories date faster than any other part of a house — brilliant white uPVC yellows, and the style instantly places the build in a past decade. Yet the structure underneath is usually sound. Spraying reinvents it.

What gets sprayed

Every external uPVC element: frames, doors, roof spars, ridge and finials, plus fascias and guttering so the whole structure matches. Internally, frames can be sprayed too — white inside with anthracite outside is a popular combination that keeps rooms bright while modernising the exterior.

The process

STEP 01

Survey the structure

Frames, gaskets and trims are checked so any maintenance issues are flagged before coating.

STEP 02

Wash & degrease

The full structure is cleaned of algae, dirt and chalked residue.

STEP 03

Mask glazing & surrounds

Glass, roof panels, brickwork and planting are completely protected.

STEP 04

Prime the uPVC

PVC adhesion primer bonds the system to the frames.

STEP 05

Spray the colour

UV-stable topcoats are applied across frames, spars and trims for a uniform finish.

STEP 06

Detail & de-mask

Masking off, edges inspected, gaskets checked — done.

From conservatory to 'garden room'

The visual shift from white to a dark modern shade is dramatic — the frames appear slimmer, the glazing larger, and the whole structure reads as a contemporary garden room rather than a 1990s add-on. Paired with sprayed house windows, the conservatory stops looking like an afterthought and starts looking designed.

Frequently asked questions

Can polycarbonate roofs be worked around?+

Yes — roof panels are masked and protected while the spars and trims are sprayed. We coat the frame, not the glazing.

Do you spray inside the conservatory too?+

If you wish. Many customers keep white interiors for brightness and change only the outside — both are possible.

Will the sprayed finish cope with a south-facing conservatory?+

Yes. The coatings are UV-stable and formulated for exactly this exposure; colour hold is excellent even in full sun.

How disruptive is the work?+

Minimal — everything is done externally in most cases, in one to two days, with no need to clear the conservatory.
