Remediation

Our remediation work involves fixing issues that can compromise the safety and stability of a building. These projects can include: 

• Structural repairs: Correcting issues that affect the building’s load-bearing capacity and stability 
• Waterproofing: Addressing water damage and ingress 
• Concrete repairs: Fixing concrete cancer, which occurs when the steel reinforcement in concrete rusts 
• Facade and cladding repairs: Addressing damage to the building’s exterior 
• Mortar and brickwork repointing: Fixing deterioration in the mortar between bricks 
• Fire risk assessments: Checking for fire barriers and their placement 

Remedial work projects typically involve the following steps: 

• Initial inspection: A comprehensive assessment of the building’s condition
• Diagnostic testing: Determining the underlying causes of any issues
• Expert consultation: Bringing in specialists, such as structural engineers or waterproofing experts
• Developing a remediation plan: Creating a plan for fixing the issues

Remedial work is important for maintaining the integrity and longevity of any structure, whether it’s a small home or a large commercial building.
