Water ingress

Leak detection, water ingress and caulking

When water is getting in, we find where from — investigating the facade from the outside, replacing failed sealant and caulking at height, and reporting clearly when a bigger repair or an engineer is needed.

01 / What it covers

What’s included.

Many leaks on towers come from failed seals and joints that can only be reached from outside. Because we are already on the facade for cleaning and inspection, investigation and repair can often be done in the same visit.

  • Water-ingress investigation from the outside of the building
  • Failed sealant and caulking replaced around glazing and joints
  • Flashings and joints checked
  • Photographic reports for owners, builders and engineers
  • Follow-up checks after repair

02 / How we work

Planned before we leave the ground.

01

Investigate

We work from the leak outwards, checking glazing seals, joints and flashings on the facade.

02

Report

What we found and where, with photographs.

03

Repair

Failed sealant and caulking is removed and replaced at height.

04

Confirm

Where needed, we come back to confirm the repair has held.

03 / Questions

What facilities teams ask us.

How do you find where a building leak is coming from?

We inspect the facade from the outside around the leak — glazing seals, joints and flashings — and photograph and locate each possible entry point.

Can you replace window sealant on a high-rise?

Yes. We remove failed sealant and caulking and replace it at height by rope access, BMU or EWP.

What if the leak is structural?

We give you a photographic report of what we found, and bring in trusted third-party engineers for structural advice.
