Living in the Bay offers an incredible lifestyle, but the environment is harsh on your property. Salt-laden winds from the harbour and intense UV radiation can strip standard acrylic paint in just a few years. At Tomar Contracting, we don't just apply paint; we engineer a defense system for your home. We use specialized marine-grade membranes and salt-neutralising washes designed specifically for the coastal zones of Mount Maunganui , Papamoa , and Omokoroa . Standard water blasting removes dirt, but it fails to dissolve bound chlorides (marine salts). We implement a mandatory "Zero-Salt" Protocol using specialized surfactants like Chlor-X to chemically break the salt-substrate bond. Painting over salt crystals leads to osmotic blistering, where salt pulls moisture through the paint film and blasts the new coating off your walls from the inside out. Ask us for a Salt Level Test. We use conductivity meters to measure chloride contamination on your walls before we quote, providing you with a data-backed assessment of your home's needs.
