  1. I have not see any information on this so apologies if a repost. The director of All Seasons Wall Systems, Mr Michael Richard Ackroyd is now the director of SPECIALIST RENDER SUPPLIES LIMITED and WCC SYSTEMS LIMITED. He also trades under the name The Wall Coating Company (TWCC)
  2. My main concern was to warn people their 20 year insurance may not be valid and posted a solution. ( Check your policy and if there is an issue contact your broker who can amend the details to make it valid.) If this is the wrong place, do you have a suggestion where better to go to do that?
  3. "Have you got any idea who is it that runs TWCC? Where are they based?" Their address is N1 Buffalo Court, Salford Quays, Manchester. If you google the address you will find other companies including, Myhouse, Alldaypa, Matrix Student Living Ltd, The Protection Hut Ltd, Transworld, Check Ltd, Ripe Design Studios, J11 Ltd, Zorin Industries Ltd, Phat Professionals, etc etc. Basically it is not a real address, just a mail drop. The same goes for the phone number. It goes to a secretary who tells you (no matter how may times you ring) that "no-one is available but someone will ring you back". It is just an answering service. There is zero information about it on the web except one webpage. It is not a real company (despite its name), but I am told that it is a Trading Name for WCC Systems Ltd. I soon hope to have a document that actually says that because not a single document from TWCC nor any information on the web gives you that information. "we have never come across anybody who checked up with the insurance to see if it was really in force and whether it would be really valid." Fortunately I did. It is a real policy but it only comes into force if WCC Systems ltd goes out of business.
  4. Have you had render by the The Wall Coating Company (TWCC). Did you get a 20 year insurance policy for the work? Your insurance policy may be worthless. I contracted with the The Wall Coating Company who (6 months and many many problems later) completed the work and sent a Guarantee certificate and an Insurance Policy Document. My insurance policy policy stated that contractor was WCC Systems Ltd. The contract, work and payments are all to The Wall Coating Company, so who is WCC Systems Ltd? I have been told that The Wall Coating Company is a trading name of WCC Systems Ltd and they, but neither I, the broker and the Insurance company have any paperwork that shows that. The address and phone numbers for the Wall Coating Company are totally different to WCC Systems Ltd. I queried this with the Policy Broker and they confirmed that, because of the different names on the different paperwork, the Insurance Policy is (or could potentially be) invalid. After some discussion, the broker will be sorting out he situation by amending the policy document to reflect that The Wall Coating Company is the trading name of WCC Systems Ltd. So. Have you had render done by The Wall Coating Company (TWCC)? Take a close look at the part of the Insurance Policy Document which states who the Contractor is. If it says WCC Systems LTD and your guarantee certificate is by The Wall Coating Company, it may be invalid. If anyone is thinking of contracting with The Wall Coating Company, be prepared for poor quality render (wonky, corners uneven, not level, not straight etc.) with the render dropped over your brand new windows and your paving slabs. Then be prepared for 6 months of trying to get the render to be put right. Eventually you may get hold of the Director Michael Richard ACKROYD who will deny any problems, accuse you of nit-picking and nagging and then threaten to send a team to remove the render from your walls.
