Wiltshire's mix of chalk downland and clay vale means properties experience driving rain from the south-west and frost pockets in the valleys. For Wilton shop front & retail painting customers that has practical consequences: the timing window for exterior work is tighter than people often assume, and interior rooms on north-facing elevations within the SN10 and SP2 areas are noticeably more prone to condensation.
