Facades are complex systems made up of multiple components including render systems, brickwork, concrete elements, sealants, flashings, expansion joints, coatings and waterproofing interfaces.
Failure of one component can impact the performance of the entire facade system.
Assessment of facade condition, water ingress, structural movement, material deterioration and building performance.
Identification of contributing factors and underlying defects.
Preparation of a detailed remediation strategy.
