Climatised Coatings Reviews

Our house was built in 1750 and looked very sad and tired on the exterior - from quote to completion we have been delighted with the service offered by Climatised Coatings. The team were totally professional, hard working and a total pleasure to have around. Cannot fault this company. Cleared up every evening and left the site upon completion immaculate. Highly recommended.

User's recommendation: Highly recommended.

We used this company around 16 years ago. We had just bought the house and the exterior as in a shocking state. They took 6 weeks, taking off defective render and repairing the architectural Features before painting. When complete they cleaned everywhere, including windows, gutters and drains. We were given a 10 year guarantee. After nine years I went around the property and noticed some small areas where it was beginning to flake. I told Vince and he had the defective areas repaired. Most of the house was pretty much as sound as when it had been painted. The house is in an exposed, elevated position facing the sea. It gets battered by wind and salt air in the winter. I noticed that some other houses in the area which had been painted around the same time or after ours had been completely repainted again within the ten years that ours was under warranty from Climatised Coating. I felt satisfied that although I could have had the house painted cheaper it would not have stood the test of time. Although the house could have gone a few more years without being repainted I had Climatised Coatings back about 18 months ago to freshen it up with a top coat of a slightly different colour. Again I was happy with the service and the quality of the work and would recommend this company. If you want to have a look at their work before deciding on them Vince has my contact details and Im happy for you to visit

Received scam letter claiming the from their records our property was due for inspection , they have not done any work on this property. Didn't even have our name on the letter - so the so called record keeping must be poor for the poor people they have actually done some work for.

Vince Barlow Coatings=Very Bad Company. High-pressure sales pitch by VB with false assurances that his products would seal and weather-proof my pebble-dashed, retaining garden wall. Within 3 months the newly applied textured paint was all flaking off. I tried touching it up and, by having done so, was then told by Barlow that I had invalidated his 10 year so-called ' guarantee'. Employing his firm was a mighty costly mistake at £4,500. He writes his own 5star reviews too. See those dated Jan 13th.2016 and Sept 12th.2017 both from Chester, the latter emanating from the same business address as shown on the Climatised Coating letterhead! Talk about rogue traders. Whilst his two workmen were pleasant enough, the fact remains that the job failed due to poor preparation. Barlow is a glib conman and should be avoided like the plague. He doesn't deserve even 1 star, but there is no zero star option.

They have done my walls twice, the second time came back under guarantee which stood for nothing as they said they had no money to buy the paint?? So we paid again, bad move. Today my walls are being stripped back to the brick and the job is being done Again. This time by a reputable company.

All I can say is fantastic. Would strongly recommend this company to anybody.
