Comprehensive industrial cleaning and painting; taking the hassle, grief and headaches out of industrial projects
Is your industrial facility planning a renovation, CDM or special industrial project? Kingfisher Industrial Service’s combined industrial cleaning and painting services offer a one-stop solution for industrial managers. Take the headache out of hiring multiple trades, and rest easy that your works are project-managed by a team of highly trained and experienced professionals.
Planning an industrial project can be a major undertaking
If you’re planning an industrial project, whether it be an industrial renovation, new factory build, or CDM project, you may be faced with many plates to spin. Not only have you got the physical planning to contend with, but you may need to hire multiple trades to handle different aspects of the project.
A large industrial project with multiple contractors can often mean contractor disputes, overrun deadlines and the old adage, “too many cooks in the kitchen.”
Here’s why hiring a single contractor to cover multiple trades, i.e. industrial cleaning and painting, can make your project much easier to plan and run:
1. Smoother logistics on site
Logistics on site can be managed much more effectively with fewer separate teams. Think of your shop floor being busy with the same hum of activity, but without the usual chaos of multiple contractors under each others’ feet. You can avoid a “too many cooks” situation and more effectively plan and co-ordinate the comings and goings of your day-to-day site operations.
2. Minimised contractor disputes
Let’s face it, managing multiple contractors on site during a project can be handful, especially when deadlines aren’t met or disputes arise between different teams. With a single contractor, or at the very least fewer contractors, you can eliminate the “he said she said” scenarios or blame games when things don’t go as planned.
Instead, you have one team working towards a common goal. You can focus on the project itself, rather than playing peacemaker between competing interests.
3. Reduced stress for clients
A large industrial project like a renovation, extension, new build or otherwise, can be a massive undertaking that requires careful planning. Partnering that with having to find multiple reputable companies, getting quotes, vetting for quality, then having the actual work done; it can be a stressful experience.
Partnering with a single company that can handle multiple parts of a project saves a lot of stress, grief and hassle. Instead of coordinating multiple meetings, managing various personalities and trying to keep everyone on the same page, you have one point of contact and one team to deal with.
4. Easier communication with a single point of contact
Having a single point of contact makes it easier to monitor ongoing progress, with a dedicated manager assigned to oversee all works. You’ll also only have one team/company to deal with for scheduling, updates and billing, which reduces paperwork and saves you time as you’re not chasing down multiple people from separate contractors.
5. Clear accountability
If one company is overseeing multiple aspects of a project, there is a clear line of accountability for the entire job. You can liaise with your dedicated point of contact with any questions or concerns you may have. There is also the eliminated risk of finger pointing and hassle if something were to go wrong, because the responsibility lies with a single contractor to get the job done right. This is all the more better with a contractor that’s dedicated to delivering quality service.

SITE ENGINEERING MANAGER, MARSHALLS
We found Kingfisher online when we were looking to carry out external repairs on silos and gantries. Jamie attended site to price the works and was punctual and professional from the outset.
Communication throughout the project has been excellent, with regular updates on progress and clear notifications when materials were delivered to site. As a Site Engineering Manager, the standout aspect for me was their strong commitment to Health & Safety. Their staff followed site rules rigorously, nothing was ever too much trouble, and the works were completed with no risks taken and no injuries and not to mention the detail to work was fantastic.
For the first time in my working life, I also received bi-weekly stand-down toolbox talks, clearly documenting what had been discussed as part of their safety stand-down process. This gave me real confidence that Health & Safety was being actively managed, not just talked about.
I would have full confidence in recommending Kingfisher to anyone - they will not disappoint.

KEMIRA CHEMICALS
"Kemira Chemicals UK is an upper tier COMAH site and requires any contractor on site to adhere to the site policies on safety. ... From the start Kingfisher demonstrated a level of professionalism, an initial site visit to assess the areas that required work, and the identification of the equipment required to complete the tasks safely was completed. On the day the work started the Kingfisher team completed the site induction and then walked through the work to be completed with the site representative. They worked efficiently and flexibly to get the tasks completed on time and to the required standard, but also allowed the business to continue producing.
An excellent and professional service."
"From start to completion Kingfisher gave me full confidence in being able to carry out the not so easy task in front of them, given the open conditions and rural location. All Kingfisher staff came to site on time and began inductions, they listened, reacted, and worked very efficiently and professionally, not at any time did anyone complain or slack off. Kingfisher came prepared with their own equipment (very impressive) and remained self-sufficient for the entirety. Safety, speed, and quality of works were paramount and I’m very pleased to say all three were delivered!"
