Newman’s specialise in concrete repair investigation and specification helping councils, management companies and landlords with cost effective concrete and structural repairs.
Many concrete structures built in the 1960s and 70s such as this car park in West London are suffering from concrete failure, large sections of concrete crumble and fall from the structure resulting in a risk to the safety of the general public and vehicles.
Newman’s have started carrying out a detailed Concrete Survey to the tallest building in Watford Charter House.
The survey is expected to take between 7 and 10 days to complete and includes a detailed written report of all defects found and a full specification of repair, it is likely that the repairs will also be carried using Rope Access Technicians saving thousands of pounds on tube and clip scaffolding.
Newman’s are IRATA accredited rope access trained allowing us to offer a very bespoke package to our clients.
We utilise this method of access where conventional access is either impracticable, due to site conditions or the extensive cost or time implications that traditional methods such as scaffolding or cradle erection impose.
Rope Access compliments our vast array of specialist services and are extremely useful when carrying out surveys to high rise structures.
We are currently carrying out concrete inspection surveys and repair to the largest building in Watford, which is a 14 storey tower block, on behalf of the YMCA. Our recent rope access projects include feasibility surveys in central London, Structural Survey and Repair to 3 tower blocks in Hackney, East London and a Bridge Inspection in West London.
With the councils budgets slashed, cost effective solutions to structural inspections and repair solutions are required in order to upkeep the integrity of these streets in the sky. Newman’s carry out surveys and repairs such as concrete repair, wall tie replacement, movement joint installation, bed joint reinforcement, brick slip repair to name but a few.
If you have a high rise structure that is in need of a survey to assess the condition of the building or the building has been surveyed and is in need of repairs be sure to contact us today.
