Local characteristics

What Makes Portsmouth Different.

Portsmouth’s Solent-side exposure produces extreme salt-air weathering on external paving and promenade infrastructure. Our Portsmouth workload includes regular seafront and promenade testing where salt-driven PTV degradation is a primary concern.

Recent work

A Recent Portsmouth Project.

We tested a Portsmouth seafront hospitality terrace after guest slip incidents during spring tides. Salt-aerosol weathering was reducing wet PTV on the decorative stone to 19 despite only six years since installation. Scheduled surface treatment every 24 months now maintains compliance.
