Whilst we are known for our high profile restoration work on landmark projects such as the Bank of England, Somerset House, Thomann-Hanry® also play a key role in ongoing routine commercial building repairs, commercial facade refurbishment and maintenance across London and the UK.
The importance of regular maintenance and inspections – periodic maintenance to façades will prolong the life span of a building.
Manage and minimise risks from façade defects
Whilst it can often be deprioritised on financial grounds, regular façade maintenance is critically important. Neglected façades can conceal severe structural issues, such as rust and spalling, that can deteriorate undetected. Not only can this result in significantly increased repair costs that could have been avoided by earlier remedial action but, more importantly, also pose a serious risk to the safety of occupants and passers-by.
Just as with the health of people, the health of buildings is immeasurably enhanced by the early detection and treatment of problems.
Safe and efficient access is key
With a fleet of Palfinger truck mounted MEWPs and access platforms, all of the required equipment is on hand wherever and whenever needed. Our own Palfinger truck mounts are also available separately for operated hire.
Quickly deployed and causing minimal disruption to the day to day activities within and around a building, our agile access systems extend to heights of 37 metres and avoid the need for costly and unsightly scaffolding. They also enable us to conveniently carry out façade repair works overnight or during weekends and public holidays, minimising disruption still further.

In so doing, we help preserve the safety of all who occupy, visit and pass by buildings, thereby protecting the interests and budgets of those responsible for their upkeep.
