Facade Maintenance Projects Sydney CBD

23/02/2010

Recently, we have undertaken Industrial Rope Access Facade Maintenance works at a prominent CBD building, which was built several decades ago when building codes allowed for windows to be open and shut on multi storey properties.

The owners of the building had concerns regarding the OHS issues surrounding having openable windows at height and also had a handful of windows which had rusted at the hinge & were causing concerns as to whether they would fall to the street below.

The owners realised they needed an emergency repair and called us to offer solutions. Our expert abseil team were onsite the same day, and were able to reglaze and re-hinge the handful of windows that threatened to detach from the building – much to the client’s delight.

We then undertook a Rope Access Survey, which revealed the extent of damage and wear to the existing windows on the 14 storey building. Many windows were in bad shape in addition to being able to be opened. The aluminium frames on many of the windows at the property had warped and worn over the years, causing many cracks to window panels as well as developing rust issues which would over time, escalate the threat of windows falling from the structure.

Our rope access team provided a detailed report on the locations and numbers of problems identified at the property and provided a series of quotes, aimed at accommodating for the client’s budgetary requirements and also a task list in order of OHS & aesthetic priority.

We are about to commence works to the property to replace all the cracked glass panels and also to permanently close every window on the 14 storey building. We are proud to provide this solution to our valued client and look forward to commencing these works.

Stay tuned for updates on this project’s outcome!!!
