Owning and maintaining a building presents many unique challenges. Usually, the building or facilities manager is responsible for arranging maintenance on-site, with work being conducted by their team of specialists. But what about a high-rise building?

High-rise buildings require a specific set of skills to access the areas of a building that a regular maintenance team might not necessarily be equipped for. From high-rise window cleaning to external building maintenance, a team of abseiling experts who understand the complexities of high-rise buildings must look after your building’s needs while appreciating things like budget and time involved in conducting maintenance works.

Abseilers United have years of experience in high-rise building rope access in Sydney. In this article, we share how our range of abseiling services helps businesses stay on top of their building maintenance and how a regularly maintained building helps keep expenses down.

High-Rise Building Maintenance in Sydney

Everywhere you look in Sydney, you are surrounded by buildings of all shapes and sizes. But have you ever considered how they are maintained?

Just any maintenance company doesn’t carry out this kind of high-risk work, it requires a combination of building maintenance and repairs, but also the added skill of abseilers who specialise in high-rise and difficult-to-access building maintenance.

Maintenance costs aren’t as expensive as you might think – especially when you weigh the cost of general building maintenance against significant building repairs that can occur over time from neglecting general repairs and maintenance.

At Abseilers United, our expert team of industrial abseilers looks after high-rise buildings and difficult-access building maintenance needs for a wide range of Sydney-based businesses.

We offer a range of abseiling services for building maintenance to service your building needs that won’t break the bank while leaving your building in tip-top shape now and for years to come.

High-Rise Window Cleaning

Throughout any given year, the exterior of a high-rise building accumulates a significant amount of built-up grime and dirt – including windows. And the longer it is left, the greater the cleaning costs will be.  

We are experts in high-rise window cleaning at Abseilers United to prevent cleaning costs from adding up. We get the job done and use our know-how to guide businesses on the best regular maintenance plans so that your building is always at its most efficient.

Pressure Cleaning and Soft Wash via Rope Access

A clean building is an efficient building. That’s why periodic cleaning of the exterior building surfaces retains value and ensures the longevity of the building.  

Investing in external cleaning saves you money and the hassle of massive clean-up and repair bills that may likely occur down the track.

At Abseilers United, we have the technical know-how to wash any high-rise building in the Sydney CBD and suburbs using high-quality pressure cleaning and soft building wash techniques. 

We use state-of-the-art industrial abseiling techniques to access buildings without needing expensive, disruptive, and unsightly scaffolding or powered machinery, which can save thousands of dollars.

Caulking and Sealing

Over time, buildings suffer from water leakages in inaccessible areas and need windows sealed. Caulking and sealing at height requires professionals with rope access.  

Whether the problem is at heights or in hard-to-reach confined spaces at Abseilers United, we perform a localised and highly detailed water-testing solution to find the source of the leak and fix the issue accordingly, so you won’t need to worry about leakages for a long time.

Waterproofing

Waterproofing your building can improve its lifespan and avoid water leaks, potentially saving you thousands. Think of it as an insurance policy for your building. Not only can we prevent water leakages without permanent waterproofing and leak repairs, but we can also handle emergencies.  

This way of waterproofing is ideal for those seeking a cost-effective building maintenance solution while still ensuring the building is well looked after.

Mortar Replacement, Tuck Pointing and Brick Repointing

Mortar joints between bricks or masonry elements can perish over time and must be repaired. Regularly repairing the brick walls and mortar can be costly and time-intensive, especially when the building maintenance manager needs to tackle this work.  

We can replace mortar, repoint bricks on high-rises efficiently and professionally, and work with your maintenance team to get the job done right. Depending on the composition of the wall, the brickwork may require painting work to finish it up. We can handle this too. After thoroughly inspecting the issue, we ensure that the whole area is free of hazards from the old mortar.

Painting, Rendering and Concrete Repairs

Painting and rendering at heights is a specialist skill. You need qualified professionals to ensure your job is carried out properly, quickly, and safely. The Abseilers United team blends years of industrial abseiling experience with painting and rendering expertise. We pack up at the end of every day (or night). That means no inconvenient, cumbersome scaffolding or powered machinery will disrupt your business.

Installations and General Repairs

Need an air-conditioning unit installed or a lightbulb replaced in a hard-to-reach area? Abseilers United can help. Our expert team of tradespeople means we can offer our clients a wide range of trades and services for difficult-to-reach areas.
