We help our clients gather critical information and evidence to support with planning and budgetary action for effective tall building maintenance and asset management.
Our PFI-compliant technical façade surveys and tall building façade audit assessments enable you to truly understand the condition and risks of your façade at high level. Everything we do is driven by the desire to help building managers and owners truly understand what action to take: as well as where, when and how. Our number one priority is to help the building fabric live for longer, supporting lifespan maximisation through effective, proactive and best practice tall building management methods.
Are you confident that your current supplier is prepared for the challenges of looking after a tall building? Traditional façade procurement is often limited, reactive and high risk as defects turn into failures. Our services buck this trend, since our highly trained engineers, surveyors and maintenance technicians are in-house; making auditing, reporting and maintenance works part of a seamless process for our clients.
Our tall building condition audit services involve comprehensive assessments carried out by abseiling and/or cradles. We inspect the building fabric and capture vital information for our meticulously detailed reports, using digital façade mapping to help with both reactive and planned maintenance programmes.

- PFI-compliant surveys for modern façades, curtain walling, photovoltaic, biophilic and green façades.

We provide our clients with transparent, expert information, enabling them to make informed decisions best suited to their property’s condition or budget. We can help at every theoretical and practical stage, from pre-construction right through to restoration and maintenance planning.
The level of information demonstrated within our reports is tailored to the specific needs of each tall building and client. We specialise in tall building façade condition audits, collating information about the likelihood of any potential defects and obtaining details on the existing condition of your façade. We undertake detailed condition surveys of either part or whole façades for planned preventative maintenance (PPM), often required by asset and building managers. Our reports are comprehensive, containing a schedule of likely defects, allowing our clients to reliably plan and cost remedial works. This helps to significantly reduce the potential for costly surprises in the future!

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.

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.
Novotel Sheffield
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.
Novotel Leeds
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.
