Facade and balcony restoration

Restoration, not just a coat of paint

Painting over cracked render and failed sealant looks good for a year. Real restoration fixes what’s underneath first: drummy render removed and replaced, movement joints re-formed, balcony hobs and edges repaired, balustrades refixed, then a quality paint system over the top.

Much of this work can be delivered by rope access, so residents keep their views and the building isn’t wrapped in scaffold for months.

Typical scope

• Render removal and re-rendering to match existing texture
• Crack repair and movement joint installation
• Backing rod, bond breaker and flexible sealant replacement
• Balcony hob, upstand and slab edge repairs
• Balustrade removal, repair and reinstatement
• Protective coatings and repainting

How we approach remedial work

1. Investigate. Close inspection, often by rope access, plus testing, scanning or controlled breakout where needed, with a photo report.
2. Scope and price. A clear, staged quote based on what we actually found, with any engineer hold points built into the programme.
3. Repair. Works carried out to the specification, with the least possible disruption to residents and tenants.
4. Close out. Photos of completed works, product details and any recommendations for ongoing maintenance.

Licensed work is carried out by appropriately licensed trades in line with NSW requirements. Ask us about licensing for your specific scope.
