Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Why does concrete and structural work fail?
A: Most façade failures trace back to a mix of age, design flaws, and environmental exposure:
• Weathering & UV breakdown of coatings and sealants.
• Thermal movement causing cracks in render or brickwork.
• Corrosion of reinforcement or fixings leading to spalling concrete and loose finishes.
• Construction shortcuts at joints, flashings, and penetrations.
Without remediation, small cracks or leaks evolve into structural risk,water damage, and costly disputes.
Q3: What does façade remediation involve?
A: True remediation goes beyond patching. It means investigation, repair, and long-term protection:
• Invasive testing to uncover root causes.
• Repairing render, brickwork, and sealant joints.
• Replacing corroded ties, flashings, or coatings.
• Applying engineered waterproofing and protective systems.
• Delivering full DBP compliance, so the works are legally defensible.
The goal is not just to “fix cracks” — it’s to restore the façade’s integrity and extend building life by decades.
Q5: How much will it cost?
A: Façade remediation varies widely depending on height, access, materials, and scope:
• Localised repairs may cost tens of thousands.
• Full mid-rise façade upgrades typically range $500k–$3m+.
We provide itemised scopes and transparent budgets, so committees, insurers, and managers can compare apples with apples — not risk hidden costs later.
Q7: What warranties are provided?
A: Our façade works come with layered protection:
• Manufacturer warranties on coatings, membranes, and renders (7–15 years).
• Workmanship warranty covering installation quality.
• Defects liability period built into contracts.
• Full DBP compliance pack, protecting committees, managers, and owners from liability.
This means stakeholders don’t just get repairs — they get assurance, backed by documentation.
Q2: What are the signs of façade failure?
A: Common red flags include:
• Cracks or bulges in render, cladding, or brickwork.
• Water staining, bubbling paint, or mould inside units.
• Rust streaks showing hidden corrosion.
• Loose render, tiles, or concrete that could become falling debris.
• Energy inefficiency from failed insulation or seals.
These are not cosmetic issues — they are indicators of underlying defects that must be addressed.
Q4: How long will it take?
A: Every building is unique, but typical durations are:
• Localised repairs: 2–6 weeks.
• Mid-rise buildings: 3–6 months.
• Complex façades with balconies: staged over longer periods.
We prepare staging and access strategies upfront, ensuring owners and residents know exactly what to expect.
Q6: What is the impact on residents and tenants?
A: Remediation is intrusive — scaffolding, noise, and restricted balcony use are often unavoidable. But Atomic Projects minimises disruption by:
• Sequencing works to keep downtime as short as possible.
• Using dust and noise control systems.
• Providing clear advance notices to all residents.
• Sending daily progress updates to strata managers and committees.
We know these projects happen in live, occupied buildings — so our job is to keep stress and disruption to a minimum.
