Coatings Inspection And Consultant Survey Services

We provide paint coating management and consulting services. First, we collaborate with you to determine the optimal coating solution depending on the project’s environmental requirements.

Following a tendering procedure, we nominate the applicators based on their specific coating skills, whether it is flooring, fire protection, waterproofing, or any other coating requirement dependent on the project. We give materials based on the best cost and source, regardless of brand.

During the application process, we ensure that the specification’s standards are met and applied.

We sign off on completed works with the manufacturer and applicator, pursuant to the terms and conditions agreed upon by the parties.
