Facade Remediation and Repair

Facade remediation and repair for Sydney buildings affected by harbour salt spray corrosion, sandstone deterioration and coastal weather exposure.

Overview

Facade remediation and repair for commercial towers and residential highrises across Sydney. Sydney coastal environment creates aggressive conditions for building facades: harbour salt spray corrodes metal fixings, sandstone heritage facades suffer from spalling and erosion, and strong easterly winds drive rain into sealant joints. Many 1980s and 1990s CBD towers now require major facade remediation programmes. We combine glazing expertise with construction knowledge to deliver lasting facade repairs that restore weatherproofing, structural adequacy and appearance in accordance with NCC performance requirements and AS 3600.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes facade deterioration?

Common causes include UV degradation of sealants, thermal movement stress, water ingress, corrosion of metal components, concrete carbonation and poor original construction. Our assessments identify the root cause before recommending solutions.

How do you access facades for remediation work?

We use rope access, elevated work platforms, building maintenance units and swing stages depending on the building configuration and scope of work. Rope access is often the most cost effective method for spot repairs.

Can facade remediation be done while the building is occupied?

Yes. We plan and schedule facade works to minimise disruption to occupants. Hoarding, dust barriers and noise management are standard parts of our methodology.
