Services: EPS has been protecting houses from the elements on the Island for over 20 years; many customers request the Protex system again after the guarantee has expired. Protex has a smooth and fine-textured coating, it comes in a variety of modern colours, and is sprayed on up to 20 times thicker than conventional paints. It is made from a flexible resin base and is hard wearing. The formulation still allows the coating to BREATHE (we can demonstrate this to you with a bubble pipe) Protex works especially well sprayed over old and new PEBBLEDASH. It is designed to be applied over any masonry surface, so why not give our office a call today for a free quotation on 627191? P.S. - Don't forget to ask about our Roofguard coatings - once applied, it stops the growth of unsightly moss.
