Some building issues require immediate attention and assessment. RM Watson has the capacity to mobilise an experienced team of tradespeople to make safe dangerous building defects within hours of your request.
The proper preparation of corroding steel is as important as the correct choice of material. Without careful cleaning and decontamination of steel surfaces, the performance of even quality coating systems will be compromised and require retreatment in the short term. RM Watson’s tradespeople ensure all stages of the process are completed to ensure the full life cycle of the treatment is achieved.
When correctly designed and monitored by an experienced team, cathodic protection can form part of an effective maintenance strategy to extend the life expectancy of your concrete structure. RM Watson has been successfully installing and monitoring bespoke cathodic protection solutions for over 20 years.
Causes of building defects are often difficult to source and even more difficult to remedy. Engaging the RM Watson team to delivery preliminary testing and investigative works is an effective method of ensuring certainty of project cost and programming.
Prevention is the best form of cure when it comes to remedial building. Engaging RM Watson to undertake regular building inspections is an effective way to identify and remedy building defects in their early stages before they become major structural issues which can be costly to remediate.
From corrosion of steel reinforcement, deterioration of structural steel supports or overloading of retaining walls, over time, structures can fail. Bespoke repair can address these issues to avoid the worst-case scenario. From carbon fibre strengthening of concrete to underpinning of footings or installation of supplementary support structures, RM Watson will design and install a solution to address the most challenging of issues.
