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.

Loose façades in Vilanova i la Geltrú: what we check

On houses and estates in areas such as Centre Vila and La Geltrú, sun, damp and salt loosen cladding, tile slips and render on walls and eaves. We remove anything that sounds hollow and refix or replace it, with the joint sealed.

On buildings in areas such as Barri de Mar and Ribes Roges, 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.

Over 20 years in building repair: a visit, a written quote item by item and an orderly job, with the street protected while we work. Other areas we cover close by: Sant Pere de Ribes, Cubelles and Canyelles.

Frequently asked questions

01

Making safe loose façade elements in Vilanova i la Geltrú: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Vilanova i la Geltrú, in areas such as Centre Vila, La Geltrú, Barri de Mar, Ribes Roges, Sant Joan, L'Aiguacuit, La Collada and Sis Camins, and also nearby: Sant Pere de Ribes, Cubelles and Canyelles. 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.
