Farrans Construction have brightened up Community RePaint Lowestoft’s building as part of their community business support initiative.

Community RePaint Lowestoft was chosen as one of four businesses to support this year by Farrans Construction. When asked how they could help out the scheme, the scheme asked Farrans Construction to add a splash of colour to the outside of the scheme building.

Ahead of painting, the team from Farrans Construction cleaned the outside with a huge pressure washer, to wash away any dirt before painting.

As a Community RePaint scheme, there was lots of leftover paint ready to be used to brighten up the building. Bright colours were used to really give the building a bold statement and reflect all the positive work the scheme and host organisation Re-Utilise does. Business owner and Community RePaint scheme manager Carol Dean said “the results exceeded my expectations”.
