Is Facade Retention Right for Your Letchworth Project?

Not every building is suitable for facade retention, but where it is, it offers a fantastic blend of old and new. Factors like the condition of the existing facade, the proposed new design, and site access all play a role. Our team at Rokk Demolition & Salvage Ltd can assess your building to determine if facade retention is a viable option, considering its structural integrity and what you hope to achieve with your project.

The Rokk Demolition & Salvage Ltd Facade Retention Process: A Step-by-Step Guide

We believe in transparency, so here's a glimpse into how we approach facade retention projects in Letchworth:

  1. Detailed Site Assessment: We conduct a thorough survey of the existing facade, noting its condition, construction type, and any potential challenges.
  2. Structural Design & Planning: Working with structural engineers, we develop a detailed plan for supporting the facade during demolition and construction.
  3. Careful Demolition: We meticulously demolish the building behind the retained facade, taking utmost care to avoid any damage.
  4. Support & Stabilisation: We install temporary steel support structures to keep the facade stable throughout the project.
  5. Integration with New Construction: We work closely with your building team to ensure the new structure is seamlessly integrated with the retained facade.

Structural Support is Essential for Facade Retention

Unmatched Reliability and Speed

The key to successful facade retention is robust structural support. We use temporary steel frameworks, carefully designed by experienced engineers, to brace the facade and prevent collapse during the demolition and construction phases. The design of this support is specific to each project, accounting for the facade's height, condition, and the surrounding environment.
