What making the façade safe includes
-
Rope access inspection
We survey the façade section by section and tap the render to find hollow areas.
-
Removing loose pieces
We take down render, cornice fragments or tiles that could fall to the street.
-
Protecting the pavement
We cordon off the area and fit netting where needed while we work.
-
Treating reinforcement
We clean off rust and passivate the steel in balcony edges and slab fronts.
-
Rebuilding
We restore the original shape with repair mortar, respecting mouldings and edges.
-
Matching finish
Paint or render in the same shade so the repair blends in.
Loose façades in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi: what we check
In 1960s and 70s buildings in areas such as Sarrià and Les Tres Torres, the steel in slab edges has little concrete cover and, as it rusts, it bursts the concrete. We arrange roof access with the property manager and cordon off the pavement before breaking anything out.
On buildings in areas such as Sant Gervasi - Galvany, Sant Gervasi - la Bonanova and El Putxet i el Farró, we inspect the façade inch by inch from the ropes, tapping the render and the edges. Each risk point is marked and photographed, and the first job is always to remove anything that could fall on the street.
A site manager coordinates the rope access team with the residents and, when we finish, we clear the rubble and leave the pavement clean. We work in the surrounding areas too: Les Corts, Gràcia and Horta-Guinardó.

Frequently asked questions
01Making safe loose façade elements in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, in areas such as Sarrià, Les Tres Torres, Sant Gervasi - Galvany, Sant Gervasi - la Bonanova, El Putxet i el Farró, Vallvidrera, El Tibidabo and Les Planes, and also nearby: Les Corts, Gràcia and Horta-Guinardó. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
02A piece of the façade has already fallen. What should we do first?
Cordon off the area below and contact us. Our first step is to remove the remaining loose pieces to eliminate the risk; the permanent repair is then set out in the quote.
03Is scaffolding needed?
On most façades, no. We use rope access, working on twin ropes from the roof, so the pavement is not taken up by structures and windows are not covered.
04Can you carry out the repairs listed in an inspection report?
Yes. With the building inspection report in hand, we check each point on the façade and quote for each repair item separately.
