Damage is an inevitable part of the construction build cycle. As deadlines approach, multiple trades are on site, working against the clock, and surfaces get damaged. Plastic Surgeon has extensive experience in working for major construction companies such as BAM Construction and Carillion Construction Ltd, providing specialist finishing and repairs to almost any surface, including Perspex doors, wall cladding and laminates.

Sustainability in the building and construction industries is about balancing environmental, social and economic concerns as well as considering the impact that today's decisions will have for future generations.

Sustainable design and building processes and the carbon footprint of materials are under increasing scrutiny and regulation at every stage.

Plastic Surgeon is committed to helping achieve sustainable construction and to minimising the impact we have on the environment. High quality repair is a sustainable option, it's far more environmentally friendly, not to mention cost-effective, to repair rather than replace -- and that goes for both refurbishment and new build projects.

On site damage to building components can and does happen and replacements cost more in terms of money, time and labour, and can significantly delay delivery of a project.

By carrying out cosmetic repairs builders and contractors can keep a project on time, on budget, and improve their waste management credentials, helping to achieve and maintain sustainable construction. Legislation, such as the legally enforceable requirement of Site Waste Management Plans for any project valued at over £300,000 will only increase, so a long-term commitment to repair rather than replace will reap rewards.

Thanks to specialist training we have a nationwide team of finishers who are experts in all materials - Plastic and GRP, Woods and Veneers, Stone and Brick, Ceramics and Enamel, Glass and Glazing, Metals and Foils, Other Surfaces -- making virtually undetectable repairs that save thousands of pounds on expensive replacements, not to mention landfill taxes.
