Facade Repair & Restoration in Leichhardt

Inner West suburb with a strong 1990s-2010 strata wave and a continuous run of Victorian terraces.

Facade Repair & Restoration across Leichhardt buildings

Balcony rectification across the 1990s-2010 strata stock as original waterproofing membranes reach end of life. Rising damp work across the period terraces, often where post-purchase renovations bridged the original DPC.

The Supcon approach is the same anywhere in Sydney metro: find the source, scope it properly, fix it once. The suburb’s build wave and exposure profile change the diagnosis, not the standard.

Understanding Facade Defects

Facades are complex systems made up of multiple components including render systems, brickwork, concrete elements, sealants, flashings, expansion joints, coatings and waterproofing interfaces.
