"Yes you can paint them with speclist paint but it's best to get them removed as they can cause damp and rot to joist and lintels above windows. They can also drop in places causing costly repairs be sure they are concrete first then get a facia expert to do a free observation to check to see about drops and cracks"

"Can be painted but fot the best result I would replace and have peace of mind that the old concrete won't be causing problems in the future."

"Yes, why not. Before that a good inspection and proper cleaning. Now plenty of elastic paints for concreate. Drying time one hour, no chance to peal out. So good quality just quite expensive a small can around 45 pounds"
