Restoring and Protecting Buildings through Remedial Construction, Cladding Solutions and Fire Safety Compliance
Made by Divulgo Digital Powered by Webflow
In Sydney, many combustible cladding replacement projects are driven solely by fire compliance. However, strata managers and building owners often overlook the biggest opportunity: transforming the replacement into a high-performance building envelope system. Simply swapping one panel for another misses critical steps related to water ingress, thermal efficiency, and overall durability.
When the old façade is removed, you have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to inspect and remediate the hidden defects within the wall cavity that cause long-term water damage and energy leakage.
Waterproofing: The primary layer of defence against water is the waterproof membrane and flashing system behind the cladding. We meticulously check and upgrade all critical junctions – windows, doors, balconies, and slab edges – to ensure a continuous waterproof barrier.
Thermal Performance: Modern, compliant cladding systems, when paired with high-quality insulation and an airtight installation process, drastically improve the building's thermal performance. This translates directly to lower energy bills for owners and a more comfortable living environment, adding tangible asset value.
Regulatory compliance is the minimum standard. A professional remedial contractor treats recladding as a full overhaul of the façade system, ensuring:
Water Management: Installation of rainscreens, air gaps, and new weather-resistive barriers.
Airtightness: sealing all penetrations and joints to prevent air and moisture transfer.
Durability: Selection of non-combustible cladding (e.g., fibre cement, deemed-to-satisfy aluminium) appropriate for the harsh Australian climate.
Cladding replacement is a high-risk project. Selecting a contractor with a proven history of managing large-scale, occupied-building façade works is non-negotiable.
