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

Frequently asked

  • What's the warranted service life?

    Depends on system and substrate. Typically 10, 15 or 20 years. We agree the warranty target before specification.

  • Will it work on my substrate?

    Felt, single-ply, asphalt, metal profile. Most substrates are coatable. We confirm at survey.

  • What's the access plan?

    Edge protection, MEWP or scaffold, depending on roof. Set out in the RAMS pack before mobilisation.

  • How long does it take to cure?

    Most systems are weather-resistant within hours and fully cured within a week. We plan around the forecast.

  • Can it be applied in winter?

    Yes. But the weather window is tighter and the system has to suit the temperature range. We won't apply outside spec.
