Summer’s over. But what’s it done to your building?

We’ve enjoyed some impressive hot spells in the UK this summer. But as the sun sets, schools return for autumn and we head towards the colder months, it’s time to take a serious look at the impact of this warmer weather on your building’s façade.

Of course, there are many benefits to the brighter warmer days. These include consistent temperatures helping coating to cure, longer hours of daylight to operate in, and faster drying time for paints.

But when the winter starts to set in, it’s crucial to properly assess the lasting impact of the heat on your roof and wall cladding, acting fast to repair and refurbish before costly replacement becomes your only option.

Let’s focus on the main areas that you need to assess in the post-summer months:

Fading and cracking

The strength of UV rays can cause the once-polished surfaces of your wall and roof cladding to deteriorate quickly. Not only does shabby, off-colour paintwork look tired and unimpressive, it can lead to structural breakdowns in the integrity of your cladding.

With our Cladding Coatings on-site spraying and wall and roof recoating services, we’ll get your façade back to your high standards once again. With services including colour-matching to get your colours exactly on-brand and our Cladding Coatings 15-year guaranteed paint systems, you’ll be set for cladding perfection next summer – and beyond.

Expansion

Of course, many building materials are designed to withstand high temperatures. Yet with the UK temperatures breaking records in 2025, your façade most likely faced up to its highest heat yet, expanding your façade structure beyond its limit.

Our Cladding Coatings team will assess your façade’s condition, checking for common expansion problems such as warping and building cladding panels. We’ll then use our

decades of experience to advise you on the best possible steps to take to prevent the damage spreading and causing concerns for years to come.

Debris build up

In dry, sticky conditions, with limited rain, there’s a fair chance your building is looking a little dirty. As debris and residue sticks to your wall and roof cladding, not only does it run the risk of build-up, but it also looks scruffy and uninviting.

Restore that well-kept appearance and great first impression with cladding cleaning. Not only does this help your building look sleek and smart, it also reduces the risk of the significant damage caused by residual build up – protecting perception and performance long term.
