Building Facade Maintenance FAQs
The lifespan of a building’s facade depends on the materials used, design, and exposure to weather conditions. With proper preventive maintenance, such as repointing, glazing repairs, and protective coatings, a facade can last several decades while retaining its appearance and performance.
Typical facade defects include cracked masonry, loose cladding panels, deteriorated pointing, water ingress, glazing issues, and damaged paintwork. If left untreated, these defects can compromise safety and accelerate structural deterioration. Planned maintenance helps address these issues before they escalate.
Regular facade maintenance not only enhances the appearance of your building, but also protects against structural deterioration, improves safety, and extends the lifespan of materials. For businesses, a well-maintained facade helps project a professional image and reduces the risk of unplanned disruptions or costly emergency repairs.
A facade inspection is a professional assessment of a building’s exterior to check for structural integrity, weathering, cracks, loose materials, glazing issues, and safety hazards. Regular inspections ensure that defects are identified early, helping prevent costly repairs and ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations.
Having had difficulties with previous contractors due to the shape & access issues of my building it has been a pleasure to find such a reliable firm as NSS.
