Frequently Asked Questions
How often does an exterior refurbishment need doing?
A quality render can last 20+ years. Painted exteriors typically need attention every 5–10 years. We advise on the best system for each building at the survey stage.
Do you manage scaffold and access equipment?
Yes. We manage all scaffold and access requirements as part of the exterior refurbishment project, including liaising with the council for any scaffold permits required.
Can you refurbish the exterior while the building is occupied?
Yes. Exterior refurbishments are typically carried out with the building occupied. We maintain safe access at all times and agree the works programme with the management company.
