Comprehensive Condition Surveys for External and Roof Areas
At Spider Rope Access, we specialize in delivering detailed condition surveys for external facades and roof areas, helping facilities managers, property managers, and building owners maintain the longevity and safety of their assets.
Why Condition Surveys Are Essential
Over time, external building elements deteriorate due to weather exposure, aging materials, and general wear and tear. Small defects can quickly escalate into major structural issues if left unchecked, leading to costly repairs, safety risks, and compliance concerns. A proactive approach ensures that buildings remain safe, compliant, and structurally sound, reducing liabilities and future maintenance costs.
How We Conduct Condition Surveys
We utilise specialist rope access techniques to safely reach hard-to-access areas without the need for costly scaffolding or disruptive access equipment. This allows us to inspect and report on:
- Roof coverings & waterproofing systems – Identifying cracks, deterioration, and weak points
- Facade conditions – Checking for cracks, loose materials, missing mortar, and weather damage
- Drainage systems & gutters – Assessing blockages, leaks, and proper water flow to prevent damage
- Cladding, glazing & sealant conditions – Checking for sealant failure, leaks, and panel misalignment
- Structural integrity – Identifying movement, corrosion, or potential failure points And more……
What We Deliver
- Comprehensive photographic reports detailing all defects and areas of concern
- Recommendations for maintenance and repairs, tailored to your building’s condition
- Cost-effective, proactive solutions to help you plan budgets and avoid emergency repairs
- Minimal disruption to operations, as our rope access teams work swiftly and efficiently
