Rope Access Pointing

When it comes to maintaining the structural integrity and aesthetics of your building, pointing is a crucial aspect of the process.

Pointing is the process of renewing the external mortar joints between the bricks or stones that make up the facade of a building. These mortar joints can deteriorate over time due to exposure to the elements, such as rain, wind, and temperature fluctuations. When the mortar starts to crumble or crack, it not only affects the structural stability of the building but also diminishes its visual appeal. Pointing is essential to prevent water ingress, maintain the building’s integrity, and enhance its overall aesthetics.

Rope access for pointing

Rope access, is a versatile and efficient method used for various maintenance tasks, including pointing. This technique allows our trained professionals, to use specialised equipment and skills to access difficult-to-reach areas on buildings, such as facades, roofs, and high-rise structures. This completely eliminates the need for bulky and expensive scaffolding.

Benefits of rope access for pointing

Rope access allows technicians to reach even the most challenging locations with ease, providing access to areas that would be difficult or impossible to reach using traditional methods. It is also a far more cost-effective method than erecting scaffolding, which can be a time-consuming and expensive process. That’s why with rope access, you can significantly reduce the cost of equipment, labour, and downtime.

Rope access is unobtrusive and causes minimal disruption to the surrounding environment and occupants of the building. This is especially crucial for buildings in busy urban areas. Rope access also offers our technicians a much safer method of access when carrying our building maintenance such as pointing.
