Building Fabric Maintenance

Regular fabric maintenance plays an essential role in keeping your building functional while maintaining its appearance. As the experts say, prevention is always better than cure. The costs involved in emergency repairs to restore your building can be very unforgiving, no matter your organisation. However, it cannot be ignored as you need to meet legal requirements or develop aesthetic appeal. PPVS offers the building fabric maintenance you need.

    Finishes

    Most builders use finishes as the final part of any manufacturing or construction process, which forms the final or last surface of an element. Finishes are there to offer protection for your building surfaces from factors like abrasion, corrosion, frost, water, and so on. However, they can add a creative effect and improve the general aesthetics of your building. Although finishes usually have to do with internal surfaces of buildings, they can also be applied on external ones- either wet or dry.

    Insulation

    We also offer insulation services to help protect you by preventing the transmission of elements. Insulation may come in various forms, including thermal, electrical, fire, and acoustic insulation. Thermal insulation prevents the transmission, and in effect, loss of heat. This type of fabric focuses mainly on the space between the inside and outside of your building. Acoustic insulation prevents sound transmission, while fire insulation works on prevention the passage of fire between components or spaces. Fire insulation is essential to any building fabric maintenance. Electrical insulation is used to separate or contain electrical conductors and ensure their safety.
