Commercial Ductwork Spray Painting & Fire Damper Coating

Why Commercial Ductwork Is Sprayed

Modern commercial buildings increasingly expose ductwork and services rather than boxing them in. Spraying provides:

• Visual uniformity across ceiling voids and exposed soffits
• Clear identification of systems and zones
• Protection of substrates from corrosion and contamination
• Compliance with design intent and fire strategy

Poorly finished ductwork creates visual clutter and raises concerns during inspections. Correctly sprayed ducting does the opposite — it looks intentional, professional, and controlled.

Ductwork & Associated Assets We Spray

• Galvanised steel ductwork
• Spiral and rectangular ducting
• Fire dampers and access hatches
• VAV boxes and attenuation units
• Hanging duct runs and risers
• AC units and air handling casings
• Pipework, cable trays, trunking and containment

All components are sprayed to achieve consistency across the entire system — not a patchwork of finishes.

Fire Dampers, Safety & Testing Awareness

Fire dampers are critical life-safety components. Any coating work around them must respect access, operation, and future testing requirements.

• Fire damper identification remains clear
• Access panels are not compromised
• Moving components are protected during spraying
• Post-works operation remains unaffected

We coordinate with M&E teams and fire specialists where required to ensure spraying does not interfere with inspection or certification regimes.

Colour Coding & System Identification

Colour choice is often more than aesthetic. Many commercial environments use colour coding to identify systems, zones, or functions.

• Blackout spraying for exposed ceiling aesthetics
• Grey or neutral tones for plant rooms
• Specific colours to align with M&E drawings
• Clear differentiation between services

We work to drawings, specifications, or site instructions to ensure sprayed finishes support operational clarity.

Commercial Assurance, Speed & Peace of Mind

Ductwork spraying in live buildings requires planning, discipline, and an understanding of commercial risk. This is where The masters operate.

Rapid Drying & Out-of-Hours Delivery

We use specialist commercial coating systems with fast curing properties, allowing work to be completed and areas handed back quickly. Works can be delivered overnight or at weekends to avoid disruption.

Sustainable & Cost-Efficient

• Restoration instead of replacement
• Reduced waste and carbon impact
• Cost savings of up to 80% compared to replacement

Site-Specific RAMS & Zero-Incident Record

Every project is supported by site-specific RAMS, written for the actual environment — not generic templates.

We have a 100% success record across commercial works, with zero health & safety incidents and no quality failures.

Proven Track Record

The masters have been coating buildings for major contractors and property stakeholders for over a decade, including:

• Keepmoat
• Winvic
• CBRE
• Other national contractors and facilities managers

This experience translates into calm, organised delivery on complex sites.
