ABOUT 4CONSTRUCT'S FACADE REPAIR SERVICES
We have repaired the facades of buildings across the UK
Here at 4construct, we can provide large-scale façade repairs and restoration across the UK. We know that a building's façade is more than just its face; it's a critical component of its structural integrity and a key factor in its commercial value. Our facade repairs services are designed to address the specific challenges that commercial and residential properties face, from weathering and pollution to structural issues and aging materials.
Façade damage often builds up slowly over time, making regular maintenance crucial. We handle a wide range of common defects, including:
-
Cracked or crumbling masonry and brickwork: We undertake structural repairs and re-pointing to restore the strength and appearance of the building's exterior.
-
Deteriorated mortar and sealants: Failing mortar joints and sealant around windows and doors can lead to water ingress, which can cause significant internal damage. We replace these to ensure the building remains watertight.
-
Damaged cladding and rendering: From loose panels to hairline cracks, we repair and replace cladding and rendering systems to maintain the building's aesthetic and protect its structure.
-
Discolored and stained surfaces: We use specialized cleaning methods, such as DOFF steam cleaning, to gently remove pollution, algae, and other biological growth without harming the underlying material.
-
Corrosion of embedded steelwork: This is a serious issue that can compromise structural integrity. We have the expertise to address and repair corroded steel, often using techniques like resin anchoring to reinforce load-bearing elements.
Common Issues With Facades We Help With
We don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Our process begins with a comprehensive survey to assess the building's condition. This involves a detailed inspection of all materials—be it brick, stone, cladding, or glass—to identify the root cause of any damage. By understanding the building's unique composition and the factors contributing to its deterioration, we can develop a targeted, cost-effective repair strategy that not only fixes the problem but also prevents future issues.
