Materials We Use


Whilst many think that the finish of decorating relies just on the decorators this really is not the case. The materials used will not only allow the works to be completed to a high standard but also they can help reduce the costs for the works and ensure they last for the correct duration of time.

Gyproc EasiFill 60 has a combined setting and air-drying time which makes works much faster often saving the customer a considerable amount of money. Its suitable for all types of filling from small areas of surface filling to large tape joints walls or deeper areas. It has a working time of around 60 minutes which allows for a second coat to be applied just a few hours later. Whilst maintaining a high coverage rate with minimal drying time & shrinkage Gyproc EasiFill allows an easy application for us which is quick and efficient and very easy to sand.

Toupret TOUPRELITH F Masonry Repair Filler will fill without depth limit and repair without formwork. There is no need for stabilizing solution or PVA therefore reducing labour times and its easy to shape and rub up meaning minimal if any sanding is required prior to decor. It will adhere to damp masonry extremely well and will not flash or grin. Suitable for external use only it can be painted over in 48-72 hours depending on the weather conditions.

It can be used on a variety of surfaces including all rough masonry surfaces, cement, concrete, breeze blocks, bricks and stones. Overcoat with any standard water based masonry paint or mineral paint and then apply 2 coats of Dulux Weathershield for a full protection and therefore reducing any need to repair for many years. If you want to use an oil based paint you will need to apply 1 coat of water based first.

Ronseal Wood Filler is a high performance wood filler that lasts for years even when exposed to harsh weather conditions. Capable of filling any depth of wood internal or external its extremely efficient to use drying in just 30 minutes leaving it ready to sand without any cracking or shrinking. Once fully dry it can be sanded, planed, filed, nailed or screwed and is suitable for painting, staining or varnishing. It comes in 3 different colours (white, natural & dark brown) which means we can match to the existing colour of timber if required. Using Ronseal wood filler is easy simply using a mixture of hardener and filler and applying small amounts at a time which also helps us reduce waste and reduces the amount of sanding needed. We have used Ronseal wood filler for many years and there really is no other wood filler capable of the performance of Ronseals.
