Retail coatings, built for rollouts
Painting and decorating, spray painting, and taping and jointing for national retail rollouts, single shop fits, and refurbishment programmes. Delivered to brand standard, store after store, across the UK.
Retail finishing, delivered to brand standard
Retail clients buy consistency. The finish on the wall in store 1 must match the finish in store 50, and the programme must land on time at every site. That is what national rollouts demand, and it is the work that shapes how Trusted Coat operates.
We deliver coatings packages for Marks & Spencer, Starbucks, Costa, KFC, and Pets at Home, across new fits, rollouts, and ongoing refurbishment work. The same in-house teams handle everything from full shop fit decoration through to HVLP spray work on shop fronts, internal doors, and coffee counters in situ.
Built for rollouts
Programme-friendly delivery across multiple sites
Retail rollouts run on tight programmes, with multiple sites moving through the same sequence at the same time. Our model is built for it.
Nationwide teams, fast mobilisation
Teams spread across the UK, which means we can mobilise quickly when start dates move, when variations land, or when a programme tightens up at short notice.
Consistent finish across every site
Trained operatives applying the same systems to the same standard, store after store. Brand consistency is treated as the default, not the goal.
One contractor, full coatings package
Painting, drylining finishing, and spray work all delivered in-house. One set of programme dates, one quality standard, and no handover gaps between trades.
Out-of-hours and access-restricted work
Most retail work happens around live trading hours and around landlord access conditions. We work to those constraints rather than around them.

HVLP spray work
HVLP for shop fronts, shutters, doors, frames, and coffee counters sprayed in situ to a factory-quality finish. Particularly common across rollouts where brand standards demand a smooth, consistent finish on visible retail elements.

Wall coverings
Wall covering installation across retail interiors where the brand specification calls for more than paint. Delivered as part of the same package, by the same team.

Taping and jointing
Drylining finishing on partitions and ceilings during shop fit and refurbishment work. Faster and cleaner than wet plaster, with reduced drying times that keep the rest of the programme moving.
Retail clients we work with
National brands, single shop fits, and everything in between
We have delivered retail coatings work for Marks & Spencer, Starbucks, Costa, KFC, and Pets at Home, alongside main contractors and fit-out companies running national programmes across the UK. Each of these brands has its own standards, programme expectations, and approval processes, and the same in-house team handles all of it.
Working safely in retail environments
Site-specific RAMS, controlled working areas, and full PPE
Retail sites bring their own safety considerations, often with adjacent units trading, public access, and shared loading areas to manage. Site-specific risk assessments and method statements are agreed with site management before work begins, and our standard equipment, including air-fed respirator systems on spray work and dust extraction during preparation, keeps the working environment safe for our team and for anyone working alongside us.
