Challenging to access, high level and complex building maintenance problems simplified and safely delivered on a planned and re-active basis. Practical and cost-effective solutions, which help you avoid expensive future repairs or help keep your building safe.
Building Transformation provides flexible high level cleaning and painting services for commercial and domestic properties. Commercial building maintenance comes with many challenges, including difficulties accesses areas of the property for cleaning, maintenance, painting, surveys etc.
Given the overall size and scope of many commercial and industrial properties, which are often multiple storeys high, accessing specific areas is often impossible without suitable equipment. This where high level cleaning and maintenance services come into play.
Our high level cleaning is conducted using a rope access system. As the name suggests, this involves uses rope-based systems to access hard to reach areas of a building. The system is used in many sectors and industries, for everything from construction to building maintenance.
Rope access cleaning involves a technician ascending and descending a building using practical ropework. This allows them to move across the building exterior to complete routine maintenance like washing windows, cleaning stonework, fixing lighting etc.
Rope access painting uses the same rope and harness system to traverse a building exterior when repainting the property. Again, this system allows the painter to reach those difficult areas and awkward spots that other access equipment (such as scaffolding) cannot reach.
Whether you require rope access cleaning or rope access painting, using this system for building maintenance offers many benefits.
This includes more flexible access to the entire building exterior. While other access systems like scaffolding and GMUs are great for scaling the surface of a building, they lack the manoeuvrability of a rope system.
Technicians are less restricted in their movement, allowing them to reach those more challenging spots where other equipment struggles to reach. Simply put, it makes all kinds of building maintenance tasks quicker and more efficient.
For example, because only rope and harness systems are attached to the building, less time is wasted setting up for maintenance. Compared to scaffolding and other systems, rope access takes a fraction of the time to get set up, meaing less downtime and minimal disruptions.
Window cleaning is one often most common uses of rope access systems. Cleaners can reach virtually any window on a building using this system. Ladders, scaffolding, and platforms are limited in their reach, meaning rope access cleaning is often the most efficient for window maintenance.
The same benefits apply to other building maintenance tasks. For instance, rope access painting offers unlimited access to the entire building exterior, allowing for a complete paintjob where no spots are missed because they are hard to reach.
Similarly, building surveys and inspections can quickly be conducted using this system. Given that inspections often involved just a few people, it makes sense to use a more streamlined system such as rope access.
Plus, rope access is a proven system. It has been used for building maintenance for decades, with all the procedures being incredibly safe – often safer than other high level cleaning systems!

Buildings, no matter how smartly constructed are vulnerable to weathering and decay over time. As we continue to build higher and higher, the requirements to access tall structures become gradually more complex. Simple tasks such as regular maintenance and more in-depth condition knowledge become limited, leading to failures.
Every project has its unique access plan and building working specifications. From listed buildings through to contemporary or commercial buildings – we use the latest technology, modern rope access methods, industrial abseiling solutions, traditional skills and craftsmanship, to stabilise, clean, repair, fix, respray and restore your building fabric.

A 200,000 sq. ft., four-storey leisure venue in the heart of Nottingham city centre surrounded by major traffic routes needed work to be done overnight. The Building Transformation staff were flexible and able to work around dynamic operational issues completing the project within three weeks.
May & Co have worked with Building Transformation on a number of projects which have included external building cleaning and refurbishment. They provided a great service, supported by the high level of documentation from the initial quotation to books and industry-related guidance, all relevant to our project.
I am using Building Transformation’s work to help justify façade restoration works around our business. They have produced excellent presentations on what can be achieved and is a brilliant piece of informed marketing that is helping win people over in our business to take façade cleaning and restoration more seriously.
Building Transformation is always mindful of the environments they are working in and take the time to understand the restrictions of each site; whether they be physical or due to the client’s day to day activities. They are extremely proactive and ensure that any issues are flagged to a client immediately, and when doing so always make sure a solution is provided. I couldn’t recommend Building Transformation more highly.
I had a walk around today with Dave and am impressed with the work so far. Dave and the team have done a great job.
I’d certainly love to work with you in the future so perhaps before the job is completed we could look at what opportunities there are for the future.
At this stage, from my point of view your team has been extremely professional, informing us of what was happening at all times and most importantly no disruption whatsoever to our guests and business.
The team at Building Transformation understood our challenge of finding a facade cleaning solution that would initially restore the glazing to its original state, protecting our building for years to come. Through intelligent and thorough testing right through to the full restoration of Block D, we have been very satisfied with the project management and delivery of the cleaning programme.
