Issues associated with the performance of building elements can have significant implications on the safety or functionality of a building or structure. The cause of the issue and its mechanism/s are often difficult to determine, particularly where there are several contributing factors.

We are able to assess all forms of structures using industrial rope access and other high access techniques, permitting a close-up site-based assessment that provides our clients with a high degree of confidence that their asset is being comprehensively assessed. Our assessments broadly comprise- Compliance with construction documentation - Emergency assessment of risk to public safety - Condition of cladding materials and systems - Aluminium Composite Panel (ACP) & Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) cladding assessment & investigation - Assessment of remaining service life - Cause & source of water leaks. Our team members have a thorough knowledge of all forms of structures and we offer a suite of services that include not only inspection and diagnosis, but also the formulation of repair and maintenance strategies. We have extensive experience in assisting our clients with formulating repair and maintenance strategies and developing the optimum remedial solution for numerous issues, including- Spalling & cracking concrete - Detaching render or other applied finishes - Chemical deterioration & degradation of materials - Water penetration through façades and roofs - Rectification of poor construction practices - Cladding deficiencies.
