Nature of the project- Task

Remove moss and unsightly and algae growth from all pathways
To remove redecorate steel cladding in appropriate matching paint
Make minor repairs to some exit doors and re decorate
To enhance visual appearance

What you actually did
We carried out a fully property survey with the client management team and discussed the various options and approach to the job including the repairs rather than replacement of security grills, broken glazing and doors

Task
We hired in the specialised lift access equipment
We carried out stripping off affected cladding using high pressure washers with special oscillating heads to strip off old coatings.
We then treated with steel cladding with anti-rust primers
We soda blasted the metal grills and treated with appropriate primers and undercoat  
We treated pathways to remove moss after treating with high pressure jet washing
We delivered the project to standard required by the client.
