The paint and finishing team at Calshot works across marine and architectural projects, providing a full range of surface preparation, coatings and decorative finishes. We combine traditional techniques with modern coatings to protect and enhance the underlying structure, always with a focus on durability and subtlety.
Our services cover spray painting, brushing, blasting, patination and wood restoration. We work closely with the yard’s fabrication, mechanical and joinery teams to ensure the finishing process complements and protects the work beneath it, without compromising on detail.


The Workshop
Calshot operates a dedicated in-house spray booth, as well as facilities for abrasive blasting and ultra-high-pressure water jetting for cleaning and coating removal. We also offer cold patination treatments for steel and specialist wood restoration techniques for heritage projects. Our aim is to deliver a finish that looks natural and unobtrusive while standing up to long-term use.
