Kieron from Skudo USA discussing why builders in the USA are shifting to Skudo products to protect valuable surfaces
One way to look at it is this.. protecting premium surfaces like marble, stone or polished concrete, which can cost upwards of $100sqm with $2sqm corflute or $6 per board MDF is kind of like expecting a boy scout to protect a stockpile of toilet paper after announcing a lockdown... You might avoid defects a few times but damage is just around the corner and the impact is not just financial (as per below)
What the research says: defects can amount to approximately 4% of total build cost and represent around 7% of labour time (diverted from building)*
How our products can save you money and headaches
*Defects and Defect Costs in Construction - A study of seven building projects in Sweden. Per-Erik Josephson 1998
Defects are a constant cause of frustration for builders - but there is an answer and we think it's worth the investment
To Protect Or Not To Protect - Rob's Blog
I'm out and about visiting multiple sites a day and a consistent theme I have noticed is whether to invest in good quality protection or not. This got me thinking about the age old question.....
To protect (properly) or not to protect?
We get it... the initial outlay for more premium products can seem a little high at the outset, but protecting with inferior products can end up being far more costly in the long run.
By choosing good quality products that are built to last, you'll save ourself time and money and ultimately, a lot of headaches!
