What Our Clients Say
We engaged Tates Coating to enquire about getting the wooden floor of our 1930’s house insulated to create a barrier between the soil underneath and help keep the house warmer in winter. An appointment was made, and they turned up on time and explained the options and measured up to do the quote. The quote and material data sheets were received, and we were surprised as the cost was much lower than we expected. We agreed and made a booking to install which occurred on time and in the timeframe advised. As winter arrives, we can now walk on the floorboards without shoes as the floorboards are much warmer than last year. I would recommend to anyone with an older style house and have already told a few of our neighbours. A Good service at a good price and on time makes for a great business. Anna & Gary
Please let Peter know that readings we are getting are about 2 degrees warmer inside. So far it has not dropped below 15 degrees even when the outside temperature is below 11 degrees (and that’s with no wind chill factor – as there has been no breeze. In other words, the temperature inside is more stable. But what we have really noticed is how quickly the air-conditioner brings up the inside temperature. And that’s important because it reduces the power demand.Mike Johnson
After renovating our timber home, we put off doing the final “underfloor” insulation (i.e. jarrah floorboards). Fortunately, we came across Tates Coating Services. They took the time to provide a very reasonable quote and thoroughly explain the product and its application. The team were a pleasure to have in our home while they were applying the insulation. They were polite and conscientious, even working safely around our children and animals. They ensured that all clean-up was done before they left, so we were able to fully enjoy our newly insulated home. And what a difference it has made! No more drafts through the floorboards hence it is warmer in winter and cooler in summer, but the big surprise was our house is quieter too when our children are running around. Thank you, we shouldn’t have waited so long before booking you in!Fiona & Wade
We first investigated the use of polyurethane foam after seeing it in use insulating a shed used for sorting cherries on Tim Birmingham’s Cherry Farm in Dwellingup; Although we had standard yellow bat roof insulation, it was inadequate for our 1898 limestone and iron house, so we requested a quote from Tates Coating Services to spray 25-30mm thickness of Aus Foam 30 polyurethane foam on the underside of the roof iron. The polyurethane product is a huge improvement over the yellow bats. The house has a reverse cycle air conditioner which has only been turned on once for 2 hours during the summer of 2014-5. The exterior verandah of our 2 story house had just been repainted when Tates arrived, and we warned them that any damage was repaired at their expense. The warning was completely unnecessary as the care they took to protect our heritage listed building exceeded our expectations. The work was carried out quickly, professionally, and on budget. Are we pleased? You bet we are.Murray Chapman
I contacted Peter about domestic underfloor insulation. He gave me good advice and then organised a time for the job that suited me. The two technicians that arrived to apply the insulation were friendly and went out of their way to minimise the disruption for my family and neighbours. They also did a great job and the house is noticeably warmer on cold winter mornings. I wish I had the insulation put in years ago.Richard
