We can help with
We assess and repair concrete deterioration, spalling and structural damage at height using rope access methods. Our repairs are carried out in line with industry best practice to restore performance and extend the life of your building.
Crack injection repairs
Cracks appear over time due to suboptimal results at pouring, age, or ground movement. We’ll fill any cracks with a high-quality epoxy which, once hardened, improves the strength and water tightness of the building.
Concrete spalling repairs
Spalling occurs when moisture seeps into concrete, causing the surface layer to delineate. Our specialist technicians remove and replace the deteriorated layer of concrete, and in more severe cases of water penetration where the reinforcing steel is also affected, we can carry out more comprehensive repairs.
Reinforced concrete repairs can be complex, predominantly because they can affect the structural integrity of your building or structure – that is why it’s essential you get the right advice. The most common problem with reinforced concrete is that the rebars have corroded and need to be repaired before any new concrete can be applied.
Our specialised steel repair services include;
- Steel passivation – This process repairs corroded steel bars using an acid wash that removes rust residue, leaving a protective film.
- Sacrificial anodes – This process applies a corrosive inhibitor that is designed to slow down further corrosion. It involves attaching more active metal elements that will corrode instead of the reinforcing steel.
Failed or ageing sealants can compromise weatherproofing and energy performance. We remove and replace degraded joint sealants quickly and precisely – keeping your façade watertight and compliant.
We provide full-surface painting, recoating and waterproofing of building exteriors using rope access. This includes industrial coatings, texture painting, and systemised finishes applied to a wide range of cladding types.
Cracked, loose, or failed glazing can be repaired or replaced without scaffolding. Our team specialises in safely accessing and servicing glazed façades and multi-level window systems.
