Water Ingress Solutions

Water ingress in buildings is always bad news, but when it comes to high rise buildings the problem is magnified.

Even a small leak could result in extensive repairs if left untreated, which naturally could become very costly. Excess moisture can often be because of building defects, and once water gets in through an opening (whether via cracks or building movement) it will quickly spread through the building and make the problem a lot worse. That’s why it’s so important to get assistance from someone who can check your building thoroughly, and remedy any issues before they get out of hand.

Ropesafe Access is the perfect choice if you’re looking for a comprehensive yet cost-effective solution for your facade waterproofing and leak repair. High rise buildings can make for difficult access, yet we can reach those areas that others can’t or won’t, thanks to our industrial abseiling expertise. We’re able to quickly and safely move around the facade of your building, closely inspecting the surface to check for water ingress and other defects. It can be hard sometimes to find the root of the issue as well, but we know how to find where your building leaks are stemming from.

Our team can offer a range of water ingress solutions, depending on the size and scope of the issue. From the sealing of windows and facades, to replacement of old expansion joints, we’ll do what’s necessary to quickly and efficiently solve your facade waterproofing issues. We can even carry out water testing to nail down the exact location and cause of your water ingress, making leak repair much easier. Industrial rope access is often the only way that these problems can be diagnosed, especially with taller buildings, and our certified technicians will operate safely and thoroughly.

Water ingress in buildings is a serious issue, that can be exacerbated the longer you wait to rectify it.
