Facade retention involves supporting existing façades or party walls for renovation and is often used for works on listed buildings.

 

By retaining the façade, the overall look of the building is preserved while new internal floor structures and layouts can be constructed to meet the needs of modern occupants.

 

Following our engineers’ investigation of the building, utility services and dependent upon its location, condition and neighbouring structures, we will provide guidance on the most suitable façade retention system.

 

Liaison with the local authority at an early stage within the design process is essential, as not all systems of support are permitted by the respective Boroughs. Access requirements, traffic and pedestrian volumes also need consideration.

 

We will arrange meetings with the City Engineers to run through our proposals for the temporary works; quite often we will have undertaken very similar projects.
