Does your garage door need a new lease of life? Mister SprayIT can transform garage doors and make them look as if you had new ones fitted!
Whether it's integrated into your home or a separate building, your garage is a part of your home and deserves to look its best. Over time, wear and tear causes dirt and grime to accumulate on the surface, and paint gets chipped or begins to flake.
Most homeowners take pride in their property and want them to look their best. But when garage doors become grubby and weathered, they affect the exterior appearance of the entire house as they are very difficult to hide.
What can you do about this? Mister SprayIT has the answer!
Cleaning your garage doors doesn't always work, especially when the paint is chipped or peeling. Pressure washers are often used for the job, but these will strip loose paint from the doors in seconds, leaving you with the task of painting it again.
And unless your garage door is badly damaged or the opening and closing mechanism has broken, replacing it isn't really a financially viable option. Of course, you could choose to replace your existing garage door if you wish, but few people want the expense, especially when spray painting offers a cheaper solution.
Our spray painting procedure has many benefits:

Mister SprayIT offers a hassle-free service that saves you money, time and effort, leaving your garage doors looking absolutely perfect. We guarantee that it will completely transform the appearance of your home, giving you a property to be proud of.
Basically, it's a question of speed. Traditional painting with a brush would take much longer. Also, paintbrushes always carry the risk of leaving brush strokes, no matter how skilled the painter.
As for using rollers, spray painting gives a far superior finish and is still a quicker process.
The key is to use professional spraying equipment in the hands of highly-skilled painters. This equipment is not available to the general public, so you'll rarely (if ever) achieve the same results with spraying machines from a DIY store.
Our sophisticated painting system and skilled technicians make your garage doors look as if they just arrived from the factory! You can rest easy knowing that your garage door is protected and won't need replacing or respraying for at least another decade.
Mister SprayIT specialist painters give the impression that this is an easy task, but this comes from being skilled and experienced.
The first job is to inspect the doors for scratches and dents. Depending on the materials, the team will fill small holes and repair minor damage. After this, the entire surface is cleaned with a professional degreasing agent.
The surface must be smooth, clean and free from dust and corrosion. Any loose old paint is removed by light sanding.
Certain materials may require a primer, so this will be applied at this stage if necessary. Our team will use their expertise to decide whether a specific primer is needed, or they may use a thinned-down version of the paint.
Once the team is satisfied that the surfaces are prepared properly, they will carefully mask the areas and fittings that are not to be sprayed.
Professional-grade masking tape, paper and dust sheets are used to protect the area and ensure that the paint only coats the right areas.
Dust sheets are placed on the floor and around the area to avoid drifting spray paint, and any objects that can be removed are taken away or covered.
Our highly-skilled team begin the spraying process, applying several thin coats, allowing around thirty minutes in between for each layer to dry before adding the next.
There's a definite art to this process; move too slowly and you risk making one section too thick. Go too quickly, and the finish will be patchy. Thankfully, the Mister SprayIT spray painting specialists have mastered this art, and your garage door will be covered expertly within a short time.
When the final coat has been applied, the team will inspect the surface to ensure that it meets our high standards. Any finishing touches are dealt with and the entire area is inspected once again.
The team then removes all masking tape, paper and dust sheets. All tools and equipment are removed to make the site tidy, and the job is signed off only when our customers are happy.
Once everything is in order, our team will leave you to admire your shiny new garage door.

Mister SprayIT offers a professional spray painting service that can handle an extensive range of materials and scenarios.
Whether you have a composite, wood, aluminium, steel, GRP (fibreglass) or UPVC garage door, our specially formulated paint will cover it perfectly.
Old wooden garage doors are particularly likely to succumb to weathering if the cracks allow moisture in. We would need to check to make sure that the doors were in good condition before going ahead, with no signs of rot or mould. Painting over this would be a mistake, as well as unethical: we aim to deliver the best possible service to all of our customers.
Metal doors may need special attention to ensure that the paint adheres properly, such as sanding to remove any rust. We may also need to apply a primer.
Other than addressing these issues, we should be able to spray your garage doors without any fuss.
The specially formulated paint is usually touch dry in 30 minutes, depending on the air temperature. It cures and hardens within 24 hours, so it's best to try not to disturb it too much during this time, but as long as you are careful, there's no reason why you can't use your garage straight away.
In theory, yes. However, the temperature does affect the effectiveness of the paint, so we don't apply it if the air temperature is too low or too high. Ideally, it needs to be between 10 and 21ºC (in some cases we can work in hotter conditions) for us to go ahead.
Humidity and rain can also cause problems, so we will need to take these into account before we proceed.
Please note that if we postpone a project due to the weather, this is for your benefit alone. While it may cause inconvenience in the short term, we are dedicated to providing the best results for all of our customers. Working in adverse weather conditions that may affect the quality of our work is not in your best interests. Therefore, we reserve the right to cancel or postpone any project if we believe that the weather will spoil the finished result - this is to protect your investment.
Generally, we will try to arrange to paint your garage doors during the warmer months, although we will need to erect shades to prevent strong sunlight from drying the paint too quickly if necessary.
Before UPVC garage doors leave the factory, they have protective coatings applied, usually in the form of special resins. These take several months to break down, after which the plastic surface is exposed to the elements.
It is not advisable to spray paint a UPVC garage door before this protective layer has had a chance to break down, as the paint won't bond with the UPVC properly and it will start to peel off.
While it's unlikely that you'll decide to change the colour of a brand new garage door so soon after having it fitted, we feel it's necessary and fair to make you aware of all the facts.
If you do wish to alter the colour, feel free to contact us and we'll suggest the best time for us to visit and spray paint your garage door in a colour of your choice.
