The west coast climate

What wears out your surfaces here

The leeward coast is the driest and sunniest part of the island. That is what makes it so pleasant to live on… and so hard on materials. Our technical choices follow from this.

UV

The sun breaks down the lignin on the wood surface: it greys, turns fibrous, then splits. Hence finishes that penetrate rather than varnishes that peel.

Salt

Sea spray speeds up corrosion of railings, gates and fixings. Stripped metal must be protected straight away.

Sand

Coral sand at L'Hermitage, basalt sand at L'Étang-Salé: it scratches finishes and gets embedded in deck grooves.

Rain

Heavy rain during the cyclone season and humidity in less ventilated areas encourage moss and fungi on timber.

Our method

From first call to handover

No guesswork quotes: every item is priced from measurements, and the billing method (m² or hourly) is stated from the outset.

  1. Assessment

    A chat, photos, then a site visit if needed. On timber and stone, a test on an inconspicuous area.

  2. Detailed quote

    Room by room and item by item, with quantities, the applicable VAT rate and the payment schedule.

  3. Protected worksite

    Surroundings sheeted, area cordoned off, protective equipment, site tidied every evening.

  4. Handover

    End-of-works walkthrough together, with maintenance advice suited to your exposure.

FAQ

Before you call us

Which areas do you cover?

The whole west coast, from La Possession to L'Étang-Salé, from the seafront up to the mid-slopes at around 800 m altitude: La Possession, Le Port, Saint-Paul (including Saint-Gilles-les-Bains, L'Hermitage and La Saline-les-Bains), Trois-Bassins, Saint-Leu, Les Avirons and L'Étang-Salé. Further afield? Get in touch: we consider every request.

Is the quote free?

Yes. Describe your project in the form (with photos if possible) or give us a call; we will get back to you to clarify your needs and, if necessary, visit the site. The quote is itemised line by line.

Do you charge per square metre or by the hour?

Both are possible for stripping work (mechanical, laser, steam, high-pressure). Pricing per square metre suits large, regular surfaces; hourly rates suit complex parts, detailed woodwork or small jobs. The chosen method is clearly stated on the quote.

What VAT rate applies to my works?

In Réunion Island, improvement and maintenance works on a residential property completed more than two years ago are generally eligible for the reduced rate of 2.1% VAT. Business premises, homes less than two years old and works that return the building to an “as-new” condition are generally subject to 8.5% VAT. The rate is shown on the quote; if in doubt, check with your accountant.
