Rebranding a Commercial Building with a Colour Change

A change of tenant or a brand refresh often leaves a building looking out of step with the company inside it. The cladding might be a faded blue when the new identity is grey, and the fascias may still carry the last occupier’s colours. A commercial building colour change brings the exterior back in line […]

Choosing a New Colour for Your Cladding: RAL and BS Colour Guide

Repainting cladding is a rare chance to change how a whole building reads from the road. Most operators choose a colour once and then live with it for years, so it pays to fix the reference before any spray reaches the panels. Getting a cladding colour right is part practical, part planning, and part matching […]

How to Choose a Commercial Coating Contractor: 7 Checks

A commercial roof coating is only as good as the survey behind it and the crew standing on the platform. Most of the enquiries we take begin with a quote from a company that never set foot on the roof. Choosing a coating contractor well comes down to asking a handful of plain questions before […]

Factory Roof Coating: Protecting the Roof Without Stopping Production

On most factory roofs, stopping production is the expensive part, not the coating itself. Managers often assume a roof refurbishment means shutting the line down for a week, but a factory roof coating can usually be planned so the work moves with your shifts rather than against them. The roof gets protected overhead while the […]

When NOT to Coat a Roof: An Honest Contractor’s View

Not every roof should be coated. Some sheets are too far gone to hold a coating, some buildings are quietly moving under the covering, and some materials are not ours to touch without a licence.

Can You Spray Paint Metal Cladding?

We get asked whether you can spray paint metal cladding on nearly every industrial unit we survey. The honest answer is yes, but only once the substrate has been identified, cleaned and matched to the right coating system. A fresh finish over the wrong preparation will flake within a season, and we would rather say […]

Coating Agricultural Buildings: Barns, Grain Stores and Livestock Units

A grain store that sweats through every cold snap, a livestock unit where ammonia has crept into the sheet fixings, an asbestos cement barn that nobody wants to lay a ladder against. These are the jobs we survey most weeks. Agricultural building coating sits apart from ordinary commercial work because a farm roof is asked […]

Roof Coating vs Full Re-Roof: Which Is Right, and When

Every few winters, a facilities manager stands under a dripping industrial roof and asks the same thing: do we coat it, or strip it off and start again? Roof coating vs reroof is rarely a question with one right answer for every building. What decides it is the condition survey, not a preference or a […]

The Duty to Manage Asbestos: A Plain Guide for Property Owners

Most property owners only think about asbestos when a lender, insurer or buyer asks for the paperwork. By then the questions come quickly, and the honest answer is often that nobody has checked in years. This is where the duty to manage asbestos comes in: the law does not require you to strip everything out, […]

MEES, EPC and Commercial Roofs: What Actually Applies

A landlord asked us recently whether coating the roof of a let warehouse would push its EPC from an F up to an E before a lease renewal. It is a fair question, and the honest answer is usually no, not on its own. Understanding a MEES commercial roof project means separating what the roof […]
