Not fit for purpose
Our coating was applied in 2019 with a 15 year guarantee. After a fraction of that guarantee period, the coating has blistered and is chipping off, and the walls are green with algae - far worse, in our view, than before we had this coating applied.
The company's terms state that in the event of chipping, flaking and peeling, they will send a technical advisor to carry out an inspection with a view to remedying the defects. Almost 2 months after reporting the defects, they have refused to do so.
The coating was sold to us, in part, as a solution to algae growth which was evident on some aspects of our property. This coating was described to us as being "self cleaning" and contain "powerful fungicides" to "inhibit mould/algae growth". In our experience, the growth is far worse now than before the coating was applied, and so the product, or its application, appears to us to be not fit for the purpose for which it was sold to us.
In relation to the algae, the company's terms seek to avoid liability for staining caused but state that if these problems occur they will, on request by the customer, "send a technical advisor to assess the situation and advise on a possible remedial solution". Almost 2 months after requesting a technical advisor to attend, they have refused to do so.
We have found the product unfit for the purpose for which it was sold to us and in our experience, the company has failed to meet its contractual obligations.
