When does a façade need making safe?

  • Pieces have fallen onto the pavement
  • Render that bulges or sounds hollow
  • Balcony edges with exposed steel
  • Defects flagged in an inspection report

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.

Balconies, cornices and render: where the damage starts

In apartment blocks in areas such as Capaspre and Les Roques, many flats are closed out of season, so damage to balconies and slab edges is spotted late. We agree roof access with the residents' association and, in most cases, work without entering the flats.

On balconies in areas such as Dalt de Calella, Sant Quirze and Valldengulí, we break out damaged concrete to expose the steel, wire-brush it, apply a passivating coat and add new bars where it has lost section. Then we rebuild the edge with repair mortar and a drip.

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: Pineda de Mar, Sant Pol de Mar and Sant Cebrià de Vallalta.

Frequently asked questions

01

Making safe loose façade elements in Calella: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Calella, in areas such as Capaspre, Les Roques, Dalt de Calella, Sant Quirze, Valldengulí and Quilòmetre Tres, and also nearby: Pineda de Mar, Sant Pol de Mar and Sant Cebrià de Vallalta. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

A 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.

03

Is 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.

04

Can 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.
