Scilly Islands RNLI Life Boat Station Refurbishment.

Richard North undertook the refurbishment of the St Marys RNLI Lifeboat Station on the Scilly Isles during the summer of 2012. Despite the appalling weather the job was carried out to the delight of the RNLI.

The RNLI were so delighted with the finished refurbishment that they have awarded Richard North with another refurbishment contract. He is delighted with the performance of the Pnu-Point: it enables him to work quickly and cleanly in a difficult environment.

 

Richard carries out all types of general building work in the Devon / Cornwall area including off shore work as shown above.
