Arbiter completed extensive repairs to 100 year old pebble dash render and coated the entire house in Andura Classic 21 textured coating. The work was completed as agreed in 7 days over several weeks, allowing for drying of repairs and unseasonable wet weather in May. The quotation was by far the most reasonable we received. Even though the repair work required was more extensive than anticipated no further charge was ever suggested. Our experience of the service from Arbiter was outstanding from the outset to the conclusion of work. Bill Newbiggin struck us as trustworthy from the beginning and proved to be so throughout our experience of him and his team. He did what he said he would do in a timely manner without cutting any corners. The resulting work has had a transformational effect on our large detached house. I have no hesitation in recommending Arbiter.

Arbiter coatings have transformed the look of our house for the better. Before they worked their magic, our house was covered in 60-year-old Tyrolean rendering that was cracked and patchy. Now, the walls are crack-free, smooth, and contemporary-looking. Their price for the work was the most competitive of the three companies that quoted and the standard of work was first class. Bill and his colleagues were skilled, punctual, polite, tidy, and hard working. I would recommend them to anyone.

Very pleased with all work completed on my property by Arbiter Coating the quotation was very competitive price and arrived on time Although this work is weather dependent, Bill kept me informed at all times The repair work needed was completed by Steve in one day followed by five days drying time due to the rain. The completion of the coating was carried out in one day with no mess. Well done.

We can thoroughly recommend Arbiter Coatings. They are very competitive on price and a friendly and helpful business. Bill Newbegin went out of his way to tender and explain the job and the process. We accepted his price but then "lock down" intervened which prevented the start of work. Bill maintained contact with us through out the lock down and as soon as he was able to return to work and travel to Norwich the job was started. Arbiter did an excellent job. The work was done quickly and efficiently, very tidy, protecting driveway and finishes and cleaning up carefully after the works. Their standard of finishing has been very high. Our house looks splendid, old cracked wall render and joins have disappeared and the Andura coating is very attractive.

From the quote to the finished job we were very impressed with this company. Bill talked us through what was needed and the process involved. We were updated on what would happen each day. The team arrived on time and worked hard causing as little disruption as possible. We are really pleased with the finish on our property which was in need of much tlc!! Nothing was too much trouble and every day the site was left clean and tidy. Thank you Bill for all you help, advice and for making our home look so good!

One of the best things about Bill and Arbiter Coatings is that they actually came when they said they would and if they didn’t or couldn’t come, they stayed in contact with us to let us know how/why/when. Add to that the brilliant job they did on the front of our much loved old house and you have the perfect combination and team. Our house looks really beautiful now and has been restored to its former glory with perfect rendering and an immaculate finish. A terrific job! Bill was extremely sensitive during what was a difficult time as a very close family member’s funeral was smack bang in the middle of the job - we appreciated his empathy & thoughtfulness. We thoroughly recommend Arbiter.
