Commercial coatings applied to your building where it stands — no dismantling, no removal to a workshop, and no need to close the place down. UK-wide.
Free site survey and written report. No obligation.
The work
On-site spraying is exactly what it sounds like. Instead of removing panels, frames or steelwork and sending them away to be recoated, we bring the spray equipment to the building and coat it in place.
That matters for two reasons. Removal and refitting is usually the most expensive part of a refurbishment, and it is the part that shuts a building down. Spraying in place removes both. The fabric stays where it is, the building keeps trading, and the cost sits in a planned maintenance budget rather than a capital one.
The method is the same whatever the surface: contain and mask the area, degrease and abrade the existing coating, treat any corrosion, then apply a two-pack commercial system by spray. What changes between jobs is the preparation, the coating specification and the access — which is what the survey is for.
Surfaces
Most enquiries fall into one of these. Each has its own page with the detail.
Profiled, composite and flat panel cladding recoated on the building.
Aluminium framing and spandrel panels, resprayed without removing glazing.
Warehouses and distribution units
Large elevations and roof sheets, worked around the operation.
Factories and industrial units
External envelope and structural steelwork.
Shop fronts and retail frontages
Rebrands and refurbishments, worked around trading hours.
Roof sheet recoating and protective systems.
Two related treatments often come up on the same survey: cut-edge corrosion treatment where roof sheet edges have started to rust, and shot blasting where a surface needs taking back before anything goes on it. We also carry out on-site powder coating repairs.
Send us photographs, or book the free survey and we will tell you either way.
Buildings in use
Disruption is the objection we hear first, and it is a fair one. Working on buildings that stay open is what this company is built around.
We run night shifts, weekend work and phased closures, so an elevation, a floor or an entrance is out of use for hours rather than weeks. Work zones are contained and sheeted, the coatings are low-odour, and access, permits and notices are agreed with your facilities team before anyone arrives.
Where a programme has to be short, we put more people on it rather than stretching the dates.
Night and weekend shifts
Entrances, lifts and car parks stay usable in the working day.
Phased by area
One face, floor or unit at a time. The rest carries on as normal.
Access sorted by us
MEWPs and towers, IPAF and PASMA-trained, permits arranged in advance.
Specification
A spray finish is only as good as what is underneath it. On a survey we are looking at the condition of the existing coating, whether it is sound enough to overcoat, where corrosion has started, and how the surface will be reached safely.
From that we specify the system — degreasing, abrading, corrosion treatment, primer where it is needed, and a two-pack topcoat chosen for the substrate and the exposure. We spray out samples on site for sign-off before the main work starts, so the colour is agreed on the actual building rather than off a chart.
Any RAL, BS or NCS reference, including brand and planning-condition colours. The finished system carries a guarantee of up to 20 years, confirmed in writing with the quote.
Compliance
Everything your procurement team asks for, in writing, before we get on site.
USP Coatings is CHAS accredited and every operative holds a valid CSCS card. We carry £10 million public liability insurance and send the certificate with the quote. Full risk assessments and method statements — RAMS — are issued for approval before any work begins, on every project, without being asked.

Every building is different, so the figure comes from the survey. These are the ranges our commercial projects sit inside.
What moves the number: the area being coated, the condition of what is already on there, corrosion treatment, access at height, and whether the work has to happen out of hours. The survey is free and the quote that follows is fixed price.
FAQs
Yes — that is the speciality. Low-odour coatings, contained work zones, and night or weekend shifts where the building cannot lose daytime access.
No. On-site spraying is done in place. Nothing is dismantled and nothing goes back to a workshop, which is where most of the cost and most of the downtime normally sits.
Profiled and composite metal cladding, powder-coated aluminium framing and curtain walling, spandrel panels, structural steel, fibre cement board, render and concrete.
Yes — any RAL, BS or NCS reference, including brand and planning-condition colours. We spray out samples on site for approval before starting.
A coating guarantee of up to 20 years, confirmed in writing with the quote.
Always. RAMS are issued for approval before any work begins, on every project.
We are a national contractor and we go to the building. On-site spraying teams work across England, Scotland and Wales, from a single unit to a multi-site estate rollout. Head office is in Bradford. Send us the postcode and we will confirm survey availability.
Next step
We come to the building, assess what is on it now, and send a written report with a fixed-price quote. No charge, no obligation.
