We log the dew point every hour
Two-pack laid down when the substrate is within three degrees of dew point will fail, and it will fail after the warranty conversation has been forgotten. The log goes to the owner with the invoice.
Refinishing in Barcelona · tented work anywhere in the western Med
The finish is ninety
per cent preparation.
Nobody photographs the fairing. But a hull that reads flat from thirty metres in low sun was faired for six weeks before a drop of topcoat was mixed, and one that ripples was not. That is the whole job.
- Fairing measured with battens, not eyes
- Humidity logged every hour
- Five-year finish warranty
What we do
Below the waterline to the masthead
Nothing matches that search. to see everything.
What it costs
A number before you ring anyone
Refinishing quotes vary by a factor of three for the same vessel, mostly because nobody agrees what preparation is included. Here it is priced in the open: the fairing days are a slider, and moving them moves the total.
- Fairing days priced, not buried
- Dark-to-light colour change costed separately
- Five-year warranty on the finish
How we work
Four things that decide whether a finish lasts
Fairing days are on the quote
The cheap quote is cheap because it assumes twelve days of fairing and the honest one assumes thirty. Ours says which, so two quotes can actually be compared.
Nobody sprays over somebody else's primer
Not without an adhesion test. Inheriting an unknown scheme is how a five-year warranty becomes a lawyer's letter, and we would rather lose the job than guess.
The survey is sold separately
We will inspect a coating and tell you it has four good years left, which loses us a repaint. An inspection that always recommends a repaint is not an inspection.
“Three quotes, and theirs was the dearest by forty thousand until we noticed it was the only one that said how many fairing days were included. The other two rang halfway through asking for a variation. Four years on there is not a ripple in it.”
