The Challenge

Refresh a busy airport hotel with a bespoke seven-colour façade pattern—without
disrupting guests, reception flows or parking. The design demanded pin-sharp
cutting-in between corporate colours, while aged render required spot repairs and
the entire exterior needed pressure cleaning before coating. A traditional scaffold
would have obstructed entries and added cost and time.

Our Solution

Scaffold-Free™ Access

Our PEARS® portable elevator system gave rapid, quiet coverage to every elevation—keeping entrances, drop-off zones and sightlines open for guests and staff

Substrate Recovery

Targeted render repairs and a full pressure clean provided a sound, even base for long-life coatings

Precision Decorative Finish

Sample boards and set-out lines ensured consistent, crisp cutting-in across the seven-colour corporate palette, then sealed with Dulux AcraShield® for durability and UV resistance.

Tight Live-Site Comms

Short, well-sequenced work windows coordinated with hotel management minimised disruption to housekeeping and peak check-in/out periods. Sky-FIMMS® QA checks and photographic logs documented every stage.
