Rope Access Silo Cleaning Birmingham

We deployed 3 Rope Access Technicians to carry out the internal cleaning to a silo over the weekend.
Our multi skilled technicians are all highly trained and certificated for entry, egress and rescue in confined spaces

The silo which contained polypropylene pellets was emptied to make way for a different product. Our services were engaged to de-contaminate the silo, which consisted cleaning off plastic dust residue on the internal walls and roof.

The works were carried out on behalf of a Global Automotive Company, we have been the preferred contractor for specialist cleaning solutions for a number of years.

Rope Access Petzl Asap & Asap'sorber

We have today, supplied all of our technicans with new 'back up' devices......Petzl Asaps & Asap'sorbers.

We have had to address the current situation on Petzl's statement not recommending the Petzl Shunt be used for Industrial Rope Access purposes........we have been using the Shunt for 12 years!

Although our technicians have used Asap's during training......there was a bit of trepidation on the change over.......after using them for a day....the feedback was good!

Rope Access Window Cleaning Birmingham

We have started a new contract today in Birmingham City Centre at the Birmingham Ormiston Academy or BOA for short.......the BOA is a purpose built college that was completed lastyear.

The problem with cleaning windows on a new build is......that the builders clean usually hasn't been carried out to the highest standard......this building is no exception.....mastic and glazing manufacturers window stickers everywhere....!!!
We deployed 3 technicians to carry out the rope access window cleaning which we are contracted to deliver 3 cleans per year.

Rope Access - Facade Maintenance Leicester

We are at the start of a 5 day task to remedy fixings to exhaust vents to a 15 storey building in Leicester.

Initially the works were completed by the main contractor.....which included replacement of the windows and installation of the vent covers which were installed via scaffolding ........scaffold struck.......aftercare management kicks in.....re-scaffold or MEWP no longer a contender for high level access!

Works consisted of insertion of intumescent foam to the exhaust holes (which are no longer functional) and then adding extra screwfixings to the vents...hammer drilling into precast concrete...even with a Hilti drill proved hard work.


Our techs are highly trained...not only in rope access but in the health and safety issues that are associated in industry.....IOSH, CCSNG and NEBOSH are some of the qualifications our staff hold.
We as a company have also been successfully achieved Safecontractor Status
and SM&MS Contractor Plus .....each for 3 years in a row

Rope Access Mastic Insertion Cardiff

We have completed some remedial tasks for Opco Construction today......we were called in as part of their aftercare management to install shrowds to cover the existing vents to prevent the ingress of rain to the apartments....this involved screwfixing and mastic sealing the covers......we were also tasked to re-point with mastic, leaking window frames ...also on the exposed elevation..........Opco Construction had initially priced the works to be completed using MEWP's or scaffolding....both of which sygnificantly outweighed the cost of using our Rope Access Services to complete the task.
