Built for the people who buy decorating

Three audiences. One delivery model.

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

Hands on decorating. On time, every time, snags closed before handover.

Variations priced ahead of the request. Per-store handover record. AFPs delivered on the day they're due. We run the way you run.

  • Active main-contractor framework relationships
  • Variations priced ahead of the request, AFPs on the day they are due
  • Per zone handover record across multi store programmes

For estate + FM teams

Live trading stays live. Restoration before replacement.

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.

  • Out-of-hours + phased delivery on rolling estate programmes
  • Photo-led handover record per store / per elevation
  • DOFF, chemical and jet-wash cleaning ahead of any coating

For retail estate leads

Brand consistency, store by store, on the date you promised.

Brand-matched paint stacks against the estate spec. KPI reporting per store. Programme that survives shopfit slippage instead of inheriting it.

  • Multi-store rolling programmes. KPI reported nightly
  • Brand-matched Dulux Trade specifications
  • Repeat-work relationships across Primark · Tesco · M&S

Frequently asked

  • How long will it last?

    10 years on a properly specified system over a sound substrate. We confirm the expectation per scheme.

  • Will it match my brand colour?

    Yes. RAL or BS matched on site.

  • Can you do it without scaffolding?

    Often yes, with MEWPs. Agreed at survey based on elevation and edge condition.

  • Can the building stay open?

    Usually yes. Cleaning is the noisiest phase; coating is quiet.

  • What about glazing in curtain wall?

    Masked through to demask. The glass is checked.
