Commercial painting, decorating and maintenance delivered safely, efficiently — and on time during winter months.
Winter weather brings unique challenges, but with the right planning, it’s the perfect time for internal works, compliance upgrades, and essential property maintenance. GME Group supports commercial, educational, industrial and public sector clients with expert decorating and building services that work around your operations — whatever the season.
Our winter services focus on indoor works, weather-resistant coatings and time-sensitive maintenance to keep your spaces compliant, presentable and protected through the colder months.
Overnight or out-of-hours decorating to prepare stores for new year sales, rebrands or layout changes — all delivered with minimal downtime and maximum care.
Internal stairwells, corridors, and entrance halls refreshed during winter when external works pause — improving tenant satisfaction and property standards.
Essential winter works to ensure properties meet regulations: intumescent coatings, fire door painting, and other safety-critical finishes applied by accredited teams.
Make the most of half-term breaks or early-year holidays to upgrade classrooms, canteens, sports halls and communal areas — with safeguarding always top of mind.
Protect floors, walls and steelwork in industrial spaces with specialist coatings that withstand heavy use and improve safety, even in winter operating conditions.
Refresh workspaces, meeting rooms and reception areas with clean, high-quality finishes. We work flexibly around your staff, minimising disruption and helping maintain a professional environment.
We’ve streamlined the decorating process to make it as easy as possible for homeowners to achieve a fresh new look without upfront costs. From your initial enquiry through to the final brushstroke, our team ensures clarity, care, and quality at every step. Once your plan is agreed, we’ll get to work with minimal disruption — all while you spread the cost over affordable weekly payments.

Moisture 101
Most mould issues start with excess moisture — often caused by everyday household activities. Even well-maintained homes can face moisture overload when ventilation is inadequate.
Without proper ventilation and moisture control, this vapour settles on cold surfaces, turning into condensation — and creating the perfect breeding ground for mould. That’s why GME’s service targets both cause and consequence, combining treatment with long-term prevention.

When people talk about Awaab’s Law, the conversation usually goes straight to the deadlines. I’d start with when the clock starts instead.
The law has applied to social landlords in England since 27 October 2025, and it runs from the day you become aware of the problem. For most landlords, that’s the day the tenant rings up, well before a contractor has the job.
to investigate a significant hazard
for the tenant’s written summary, once the investigation finishes
to make the home safe if there’s a significant risk to health
for both the investigation and the safety work in an emergency
If that can’t be done in time, the landlord pays for the household to stay somewhere suitable until it is.
Picture a fairly standard repair route. The report’s logged and sits until someone triages it, a surveyor’s booked, their notes turn into a works order, the order goes out to a contractor and the contractor rings the tenant to sort access.
Every one of those steps is somebody waiting on somebody else, and almost all of it happens before anyone has stood in the room and looked at the wall. It was slow before. Now it can use up the whole ten days on its own.
Then there’s the paperwork. If a landlord’s ever asked to show what was found, what was done and when, our records become their records, and a job sheet that just says “mould treated” won’t stand up to that.
between every step, before anyone has looked at the wall
This is the bit I’d worry about if I were running a housing team.
Once the deadline becomes the target, the job shrinks to wipe it down, stain block it, repaint and close the ticket. It looks fine at sign-off, and then in February the black spots are back above the window, the tenant reports it again and a new ten days starts on the same wall.
The landlords handling this best have cut steps out of the route:
One visit diagnoses the problem and, where it can, treats it there and then.
Photos and moisture readings are logged against the property with dates as the work happens, rather than written up from memory a week later.
Finding the cause is in the brief from day one, so nobody has to argue about whether it’s in scope.
We’ve been working on mould eradication with councils and housing providers since 2016. If you’d like to put your own process up against the timescales, our mould team will walk through it with you.
