Facade Remediation and Building Repairs
Spalling concrete, failed render, corroded fixings and tired panels on commercial and industrial buildings, repaired with the access engineered and the building still trading.
- ✓Spalling and concrete repair at height
- ✓Render, panel and fixing remediation
- ✓Rope access, EWP and scaffold, chosen on merit
- ✓Protection screens over public areas
- ✓Engineer backed methodology and documentation
Facade work is an access problem wrapped around a repair problem
The repair itself is usually well understood: cut out to sound material, treat the reinforcement, reinstate with the right product, protect it. The hard part is doing that forty metres up, above a footpath that stays open, on a building full of people who expect their day to be normal.
That is why access strategy drives the price more than the repair quantity does. Getting it wrong means either paying for scaffold you did not need, or discovering that rope access cannot carry the plant the repair requires.
What we repair
- Spalling and delaminated concrete on facades and soffits
- Failed render, coatings and patch repairs
- Corroded fixings, brackets and support angles
- Precast panel joints, sealant and gaskets
- Balustrade and parapet repairs on commercial buildings
- Protective coating and anti-carbonation systems
Choosing the access honestly
Rope access is fast and cheap where the work is light and spread out. Elevated work platforms suit accessible elevations with the ground to support them. Scaffold wins where the work is heavy, prolonged or needs full containment. Most jobs use a combination, and the right mix is a costing exercise, not a preference.
We will tell you which one we would choose on our own building and why.
Keeping the building running
Protection over entries and footpaths, containment so nothing falls or drifts, work scheduled around the building operation, and a program that says what happens above which tenant and when. Building managers care about that more than the repair specification, and rightly so.
Not strata work
We work on commercial, industrial and infrastructure assets. We do not take residential strata remediation, so if that is your building we will point you elsewhere rather than waste your time.
Frequently asked
Do you do residential strata?
No. Our work is commercial, industrial and infrastructure. Strata remediation needs a builder licence and a different business model.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, that is the normal case. Protection, containment and scheduling are planned in from the start.
Do you provide the engineering?
We work with structural engineers on repair design and can arrange it, or work to your engineer specification.
How do you price unknown quantities?
Investigation first where the extent is unclear, then a rate based contract with agreed measurement. It beats a lump sum built on guesswork.
Facade needing attention?
Send photos and the building address. We will tell you what we think is happening and what the access will cost.
