Process
01
Out-of-hours site visit if possible, occupancy pattern captured, key-cycle agreed with FM. Furniture move requirement priced separately if material.
02
Low-VOC stack as standard (Dulux Trade Diamond Matt + Quick Dry Eggshell) so working areas reopen without odour. Brand colours sample-cut before mobilisation.
03
After-hours method. Alarm code coordination, security sign-in/out, lone-working procedure, fire-route maintenance. Issued to FM 48h ahead.
04
Friday-evening-to-Monday-morning is the typical shift. Furniture sheeted, floors protected, surfaces wiped before staff return. Daily reset for any zone that handles back into use.
05
Photo record, paint touch-up kit left with FM, debrief if dilapidations report is required for lease handover.
Built for the people who buy decorating
We are a specialist sub-contractor, not a turnkey fit-out outfit. We deliver decorating, spraying, restoration and coatings under main contractors and direct estate teams.
For main contractors
Variations priced ahead of the request. Per-store handover record. AFPs delivered on the day they're due. We run the way you run.
For estate + FM teams
Survey to handover without closing the unit. Powder-coat restoration with a 5-7 year service life. Run-off, masking and reopening tracked store-by-store.
For retail estate leads
Brand-matched paint stacks against the estate spec. KPI reporting per store. Programme that survives shopfit slippage instead of inheriting it.
Find the right route
Most visitors arrive with a sector problem before they know the coating system. These routes match the way buyers search: home and residential work, retail fit-out programmes, and industrial painting or warehouse coatings.
Domestic and residential decorating
For homes, rental property, managed blocks and high-end residential work, we bring the same survey discipline, protection, preparation and clean handover used on commercial sites.
Retail decorating contractors
Retail work needs predictable nights, clean protection, brand-matched finishes and a handover that does not leave store teams dealing with snags the next morning.
Industrial painting contractors
Industrial and warehouse scopes need substrate-led specification, access planning, safe segregation and coating systems that match how the building is used.
How we deliver
