Common questions

Helpful information before you enquire.

Can I hire a sprayer without an operator?

No. Our sprayer is provided with an accredited and experienced operator.

What do you need from me to quote?

Please provide the site location, approximate area, required service, preferred dates and any relevant specification details. If you are unsure what equipment you need, call us and we can discuss the project with you.

Does the surface need preparing first?

The area should be clean, dry and free from loose material before spraying begins. Good preparation helps achieve a consistent application and ensures the site is ready for the next stage of work.

How soon can surfacing follow the coat?

Surfacing can normally follow once the applied emulsion has broken and the area is ready. The exact timing will depend on the product, weather and site conditions.

Do you work nights and weekends?

Yes, subject to availability. Let us know the required shift pattern, closure times and programme when you enquire.
