Our services
Floor and car park marking
Clearly defined, high-contrast line markings keep traffic flowing safely and protect pedestrians. We specialise in white lining and vibrant floor graphics for spaces of all sizes, from warehouses and distribution centres to supermarket car parks and busy petrol filling stations.
Road and line marking
White lines and road markings keep drivers on the right track. With over 30 years of experience in the industry, we are well-equipped to work with you on your next road-marking project. Our skilled technicians offer a one-stop shop from cleaning & surface preparation to road marking.
EV charging bay markings
Professionally finished, highly visible EV charging bay markings make it easy for drivers to find the nearest place to plug in. Our skilled technicians have years of experience creating bespoke designs, finished to a high standard, in car parks and service stations up and down the country.
Surface preparation
Removing dirt, dust, and grime is an important part of looking after your floor. If you want your white lining and floor graphics to last longer, the floor's surface must be professionally prepared. We offer a one-stop service from cleaning to surface preparation and line marking.
Sealing and anti-slip coatings
Concrete sealing gives floors a protective finish that is easier to clean. We use various floor coatings, including some that are designed with anti-skid technology to add traction and prevent accidents. Our experienced team can help you determine what kind of floor coating you need.
Commercial pressure washing
Your car park is the first thing your customs notice about your business, so it pays to keep it clean and tidy. From car park to cladding, we offer a range of exterior cleaning services. Our high-pressure jet wash removes dirt, algae, oil, and chewing gum for a spotless finish.
