Walking wallcoating disaster Nigel Shackleton-Burton is back with a shoddy new outfit.

He’s got a new company selling home exterior treatments with a website that claims, oddly, to be over 20 years old.

Texacote.com - “Est since 1985″ - says it’s based in Central London and proudly displays pictures of its HQ and fleet of branded lorries.

In fact, it was originally a trading name for Elm Walk Associates Ltd - Est since last October, according to Companies House - and registered at the home of Shackleton-Burton’s old business partner Harvil Shaw in Nottingham.

We’ve received a string of complaints about wallcoating companies run by this pair. Shaw, who’s just finished a 15-year ban from acting as a company director, told us: “Texacote is a new name. But since 1985 we have been involved in associated businesses.”

The plush corporate HQ on the website is actually in New York and nothing to do with their outfit. Shaw explained: “They are just images to show the style of who we are and what we are.” What, tossers?
