Installation & cladding in Melbourne
Installation work at height - cladding, glazing, signage, anchor points, services and bird control - needs the same discipline as maintenance: certified access, controlled drop zones and compliant fixings.

Frequently asked questions
Can you install cladding and glazing without scaffolding?
In most cases yes. Rope access handles panel replacement, glazing, signage, anchor points and services at height, with controlled drop zones instead of a scaffold on the ground.
Do installed anchor points come with documentation?
Yes. Anchor points are installed to the applicable Australian Standards and handed over with documentation for future inspection and recertification.
How do you protect the public below during installation?
Exclusion zones, spotters, tethered tools and staged work outside peak hours. The controls are set out in the Safe Work Method Statement before work starts.
Do you work with the manufacturer's specification?
Yes. Cladding, glazing and fixings are installed to the manufacturer's specification, and we flag anything on site that conflicts with it.

What affects the price of installation & cladding
Every building is quoted after we have seen it. These are the factors that move the number up or down - ask us about any of them and we will explain how they apply to your site.
| Height and access method | Rope access, elevated work platform or suspended platform - the method is chosen for the building, and it sets the crew size and setup time. |
| Surface area and condition | Heavy soiling, salt, traffic film or construction residue take longer and need specialised products. |
| Facade complexity | Recesses, angled or domed glazing, tight gaps between buildings and heritage detailing all slow the descent down. |
| Access and anchor points | Buildings with certified anchor points are quicker to set up. If there are none, temporary systems or installation are quoted separately. |
| Scheduling | Work outside trading hours, staged access or occupied tenancies affect the programme. Regular maintenance cycles are cheaper per visit than one-off jobs. |
Quotes are free and carry no obligation. Where the work is subject to a compliance requirement, the quote states which standard it is carried out to.
