Surveying in Abu Dhabi

We have secured an offshore communications tower survey on an oil platform off Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

A team of corrosion engineers will attend the platform by helicopter, staying on board while the inspection is carried out using climbing techniques.

This is one of the many Middle East projects currently being secured by us via UAE office.

Following our extensive 2004 surveys at Battersea Power Station for the last owners, we are pleased to have been engaged once again by the present owners and are currently carrying our large packages of consultancy/surveys works.

Our works include surveys to the Facades as well as the 4 iconic chimneys where our roped access teams are climbing and descending each of them at the present.

On time and to budget

Bank of america

The Project Management Division of the Concrete & Corrosion Consultancy Practice Ltd was appointed by a major American Bank as technical project managers on a design and build project to refurbish the facade of the prestigious Grade 1 listed Newgate Building in St Pauls.

The building is 4 storeys high with extensive ornate facade elevations.

The project consisted principally of  scaffolding access, nebular spray cleaning with elaborate water control, timber repairs to the windows, redecoration of all previously decorated areas and stone repairs to a highly demanding specification.

The facade and envelope to the building consists of multiple finishes including limestone, redbrick, timber and decorative cast iron and rainwater goods.

The high level specification refurbishment was completed 10% ahead of an already tight program and kept to budget to the clients delight!
