The block's facade sorted without scaffolding or months of building work.
We work with managing agents: a fixed quote to put to the residents' meeting, short programmes and the least possible disruption for residents.
Site visit and quote with no obligation. We reply within 24 working hours.
Answers ready to take to the meeting.
"What about the cost?"
A fixed quote, itemised by work package, with no open-ended figures — ready to set against other tenders. No scaffold erection costs and no licence for occupying the public highway.
"What about the disruption for residents?"
Days, not months. No structure standing in front of the windows, no noise from erecting it, and notices posted before we start, with dates and simple guidance.
"And if something goes wrong, who is liable?"
Public liability and employers' liability insurance, IRATA-certified technicians and compliance with Decree-Law 50/2005, the Portuguese regulations on work at height. The insurance policy can be inspected before the contract is awarded.
"How do I present this to the meeting?"
We provide a photographic report on the current condition of the facade and a proposal with programme and method statement — documents ready to circulate to residents.

Frequently asked questions from managing agents
Do residents have to leave home or clear their balconies?
No. The work is carried out from outside. We only ask that, on the dates given in the notice, they take in washing and keep windows closed on the elevation being worked on.
How are residents notified?
We give the managing agent notices ready to post, with the dates, the elevations covered and the guidance. If you prefer, we will put them up ourselves in the entrance to the building.
Can the quote be compared with other tenders?
Yes. It is itemised by work package and quantity, with programme, precisely so that it can be set side by side with other proposals at the meeting. On the services that carry a guarantee, the period is set out in the quote. No open-ended figures that grow as the work goes on.
Is a residents' meeting coming up?
Send photographs of the facade and take a preliminary figure and a report on its current condition to the meeting.
