Chipped or Flaking Painted Doors
Chipped paint and flaking coatings can be a simple maintenance issue or a sign of moisture, movement or poor adhesion underneath.
Chipped and flaking painted doors
Small chip or wider failure
A single impact chip can often be treated locally. Repeated flaking along edges, bottom rails or external faces needs the cause investigated before repainting.
Preparation matters
A durable repaint depends on cleaning, stable substrate, compatible primer and coating, and sealing vulnerable edges where the door construction requires it.
Colour matching
Existing paint can fade or change over time, so a local touch-up may not disappear completely even when the nominal colour is correct.
