I have discovered Osmosis on my boat. Can you fix it?
Osmosis repair

Call us, we have the solution.

Hulls are gel peeled to remove the old worn-out gelcoat along with a small amount of laminate (very few boats require relaminating as hardly any laminate is removed), this is then grit blasted to allow trapped salts (or osmotic fluid) to be removed by subsequent steam or pressure washing. Once dry the hulls are rebuilt using pure solvent-free epoxy and this is applied by roller and ‘bladed’ smooth as can be seen-this eliminates the need for filler and excessive sanding. To date, we have never had a rebuild go wrong!

I need to remove old paintwork from a brick wall without damaging the brick?
Blasting Masonry

We can help, but we need to check your bricks.

Blasting old paint from a building or brickwork can be very rewarding as the colour and texture of the brick emerges after years of being covered, it is important though that the underlying brick is not softer than the old paint otherwise blasting may not be the answer!
