SD Sealants, one of the largest sealant and finishing groups in the UK, is branching out by launching a new painting and decorating service across both commercial and residential sectors.

As well as it’s highly successful sealant, cosmetic repair and tiling divisions, the company will now provide painting and decorating services for businesses in residential, hospitality, leisure, healthcare and retail industries to name a few.

SD has also strengthened its management team with the appointment of Richard Courtenay, who will be heading up the new department. Richard has over 19 years of experience in the painting and decorating industry, having previously led a large team in the new build and refurbishments subsector.

Nick Jones, Managing Director, SD sealants said,

“We’re really excited about launching this new service as we’ve seen so much demand from customers who want to know if our team can offer painting and decorating to the same high standard that we set for all of our projects.

“With Richard leading on this expansion into a new area of the business, we will now be able to provide our clients with the same market leading service carried out by highly skilled professionals that they’ve come to expect from us.”

Richard Courtenay, Contracts Manager for Painting and Decorating at SD, said:

“SD Sealants is already the UK’s leading sealant, repair and tiling specialist, so I’m delighted to have the opportunity to build something new within the framework of a long-established stand-out business.

“I’m looking forward to seeing what the future holds for SD and it’s certainly a bonus to be able to bring more business and recruitment opportunities to the South West.”

Since then, the business has gone from strength to strength – headquartered in Caldicot, Wales it was become one of the UK’s largest tiling, repairs and sealant companies, with nine offices across England, Scotland and Wales.
