Restoring Existing Metal Instead of Replacing It
Is your fencing, gates, or furniture looking a little bit tired? Recoating could be a cost-effective solution for you without having to dispose of metal components that are otherwise structurally sound.
A current finish could need stripping or removal before the application of a new coat. Abrasive blasting or some other means of preparation could be necessary depending on the nature of the material. An assessment would be able to identify whether your item is suitable for recoating.

In regard to determining the cost, residential powder coating prices will be dependent on the size of the item and number of items, type of metal used, and if the item is previously painted. Price will be dependent on whether any preparation is needed, desired colour, and finish. It may seem logical to select the cheapest Residential Powder Coating service, but that does not mean that you will receive the most value.
Our Residential Powder Coating process
Every residential job starts with the assessment of the item itself and the current state of that item.
Assessment
We assess the metal and find out what colour and finish you want it to have.
Surface Preparation
The surface is cleaned to eliminate any contaminants, dirt, rust or any previous finishes.
Powder Application
The chosen powder is applied to the surface uniformly, creating an even coating.
Curing
The applied coating is then cured to become bonded and durable.
Final Inspection
The final item is inspected before shipping or pickup.
Why Professional Powder Coating Matters
An aesthetically pleasing finish goes beyond just putting on powder coating. Appropriate surface preparation, appropriate coatings to be used, proper application and curing are all key to getting that final finish.
This means that the homeowner can now make an informed choice about the state and use of their metal objects instead of basing their choice of coatings on colour alone.
