Product Finishing Consultation & Project Management
As a team, having collectively more than thirty years of experience working at the highest level within the surface finishing industry, we are uniquely positioned to offer in-depth analysis, experience based guidance, and quality and value driven consultation with regards to your needs. In some cases, all that is required is one initial visit to oversee your operations. When deeper, heavier, long term or large scale projects are needed, we can offer very competitively priced, bias free reviews, reports and full project management.
Installation Pre-Build Site Survey
For any installation, we typically conduct a full pre-build site survey to ensure all of the designed and manufactured components will fit as planned and expected. This is sometimes carried out prior to quotation, and on more technically advanced projects, also during the design approval stage. This pre-build survey aims to highlight any points for attention before the day of installation, so the process can run as smoothly as possible.
Product Finishing Installation
In its simplest form, our installation will comprise of the nuts and bolts aspect of the hardware installation. Our experienced team will arrive on site with the equipment and tooling to mechanically erect your booth, oven or room in situ in the planned space at your facility. We would work alongside your builders or other contactors to ensure that ducting penetration is undertaken successfully, and the plant is left ready for your electrician or plumber to connect to mains sources.
Full Product Finishing Installation
An optional additional service and quoted bespoke, we can also quote for a full turnkey installation, to include the connection of any gas and electrical supplies, the installation of compressor, pneumatics and spray equipment, civil works and the removal of any existing plant equipment. With this option, you will have no additional work to do, other than learn how to use you new equipment. This option is quoted bespoke, so please get in touch for more information.
What is LEV Testing?
Local exhaust ventilation systems (or LEV for short) are designed to protect workers from hazardous dust and fumes, commonly used in plant machinery including our spray booths, drying rooms and curing ovens. To ensure these systems are functioning correctly and providing adequate ventilation, they need testing by a qualified person, at a minimum of every 14 months. Following health and safety legislation and legal requirements, all employers using such a system must ensure that it is maintained in an efficient state, in full working order, in good repair and in a clean condition. Testing involves a thorough examination of equipment including hoods, filters and ducts, measurement of technical performance using the appropriate equipment and an assessment of its effectiveness. On completion of the test, a certificate will be issued which must be kept for five years.
Product Finishing System Servicing
Servicing your product finishing plant machinery shouldn't be a pain. It should be an easy, painless process of experts checking your systems to ensure health and safety compliance and effective ongoing operations. As standard, our service generally follows the simple five point plan detailed below. We know that sometimes it's simply not possible to cover every issue found in one visit, but with the plan below the vast majority of our customers only need a single visit.
Product Finishing Servicing Costs
As guide pricing, our services are based on a minimum service charge of 4 hours labour, which includes any certification that may be required to be sent out following the engineers visit. Our hourly rates are £55 plus VAT through the week and £90 plus VAT at the weekends. Each service visit also incurs a mileage charge, billed each way from our base in Manchester at 50p per mile. As a typical service cost example, for a customer located in Birmingham with a spray booth with a service on a Tuesday would be as follows. The service would be a minimum of 4 hours (£220) with a total mileage of 190 miles (£95) so the total cost would be £315 plus VAT, payable in advance for customers without a credit account. If you would like to know more about servicing, or to book an engineer, please do get in touch with our helpful team.
