Sustainability is often a key concern in the conservation of existing buildings or a new site development.

Façade retention aims to preserve the uniformity of the surrounding environment. The façade of a structure is to be retained in the same style when a historic / listed building, architecturally unique structure or obsolete premises is redeveloped for a new purpose.

Special project façade retention typically involves the design and installation of:

• Temporary facade support systems
• Temporary weather proofing
• Underpinning

We have 35 years of specialist experience and knowledge demanded on projects where facade retention is required for a number of prestigious public and civic buildings, medieval buildings and churches as well as traditional high street landmarks such as banks, post offices or public houses.

Our trained and qualified project coordinators work closely with a client who requires the retention of historic facades built with high quality materials and detailed features displaying the skills of traditional craftsmanship.
