FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What Is Remedial Building Work?

Remedial building work involves the repair, rectification or remediation of defects, damage or deterioration commonly found in existing buildings. Such repairs can include concrete spalling and concrete cancer repairs, structural repairs, waterproofing repair, repairs to façades and other problems caused due to water ingress or lack of water deflection. The aim of these works is to restore the buildings integrity, safety and ensure
longevity.

A building that require remedial repairs generally have tell tale signs and these
problems develop long before they are visible. Common defects include;

  • Cracking visible in concrete or brickwork
  • Spalling Paint or Render
  • Corrosion showing on concrete surfaces
  • Water leaks or dampness
  • Water pooling or lack of drainage
  • Tiles that are either loose or drummy
  • Waterproofing membranes that have failed or delaminating
  • Settlement or movement cracks
  • Water ingress into Living Spaces

If these defects are left untreated they can become significantly more expensive to repair over
time – Early Attention to defects are key!

Concrete Spalling or otherwise known as Concrete Cancer is caused by the formation of rust or corrosion within the Reinforcement Steel which typically forms part of the concrete structure. This usually occurs when the reinforcement steel is exposed to the atmosphere or moisture. Over time the steel corrodes, expands and causes cracking to the surrounding Concrete causing it to break away. This can significantly affect the structural integrity of the Building. Professional repairs including stopping corrosion through the application of protective coatings, removing damaged concrete and rebuilding the concrete with Structural Compounds

Yes. In most cases leak investigation is the first step before any repair works can take place. Identifying the source of a leak allows us to determine the cause of water ingress and provide the most appropriate repair solution. Anything else is just a bandaid solution.

This is not always the case. Certain cracks are cosmetic in nature, however it is best to never ignore a crack as it may develop into larger cracks and create serious issues. Having cracks assessed early always prevents expensive repairs later down the track.

The common cause of these leaks include;

  • Failed waterproofing membranes
  • Cracking tiles or grout
  • Inadequate drainage or falls
  • Cracked sealants and caulking
  • Movement within the structure leading to cracks and water ingress

Whatever the cause, we can always help identify the issue and prevent further leaks.

This is not always the case. Certain remedial repairs may not require an Engineers advice and can be repaired with best Industry practices. Certain works such as Structural repairs however may require an engineer’s Assessment and to provide a Regulated Design. We can always however assess the defects in your building and provide the best advice on what type of repair method is required.
