WINTER WONDERLAND!

WMS Devon Painting Team have recently completed the external decoration of this lovely scheme - much to the delight of the local residents!

External decorations are never ideal at this time of year but due to painting being delayed by the pandemic a further delay was not possible.

Upon instruction WMS sought the advice of the local coatings manufacturer for the most appropriate system and specification and following a joint site visit agreed next steps!

Whilst keeping one eye on the weather forecast WMS planned all works accordingly applying all coatings in line with recommendations.

Keeping the residents in the loop was key to the success of this project and is testament to the team on site,  the feedback upon completion has been excellent!

Team work = dream work at WMS!
