With 30+ years of industry knowledge, Steve Willis Consultancy specialises in restorations and protective coatings for steel and concrete. We help asset owners and contractors specify the right system, control application on site, and verify performance through independent inspection and reporting.
Where needed, we also provide surface preparation and targeted cleaning as part of coating prep, reducing corrosion, extending service life, and avoiding costly rework or brand damage.
Core services:
• Specification & design
• Inspection & QA/QC (DFT, adhesion, salts)
• Failure investigation & remediation
• Intumescent fire protection

We combine hands-on site experience with clear quality controls so coatings perform as intended. Our approach covers environment assessment, surface preparation, system build details (including stripe coats and dry film thickness targets), and clear documentation with photos and measurable pass/fail criteria.
Based in and around Southampton, Dorset, Hampshire and Wiltshire, we deliver projects across the UK

We carry £5 million Public Liability and £5 million Employers’ Liability insurance. When you engage us, your coating work is handled right the first time, with full documentation and duty of care throughout.
With our own truck-mounted access equipment, we complete high-level projects safely and efficiently — including detailed gable preparation and painting, as shown in the images.
