WEATHERTIGHTNESS

Weathertightness is a building’s ability to prevent water from penetrating the building envelope. It depends on the building’s location, materials, and design. Preventing damage caused by moisture makes it safer and healthier for occupants.

Leaky Building

If you live in a leaky building, it’s important to deal with the problem as soon as possible, to minimize property damage. A rise in moisture levels in your cladding can cause mould and rot to set in to your timber. Moisture filled homes can also have a detrimental effect on health. 

Leaky buildings can be caused by substandard design, wrong building materials or untreated building materials. As a licensed building practitioner, we can assess your current home’s cladding, and offer solutions to restore the value and integrity of your property.

Re-Cladding can also be an option if you don’t live in a leaky home but simply wish to update the exterior of your property. Re-Cladding is usually much cheaper than a full home re-build and can improve the value of your home by making your home look new and fashionable. 

Our experienced team are happy to discuss all available options with you.
