    Good Morning Konrad, Received with thanks. Both we and the client were impressed by the stand of service.

    Sterling Estates

    Hi John, Just wanted to pass on some compliments to a contractor that was just on site (George Downing Estate), they were excellent and really helpful around an issue we had with the roof. Think they were called Rope Access in London or something like that. They appeared to have a bit of freedom to identify and carry out a solution all in one visit. Just wanted to let you know.

    George Downing Estate

    Hello Wiktoria, I wanted to express my appreciation for the excellent work your team carried out on the boiler flue at 17 Aldermans House. The entire process was handled with great professionalism, punctuality, and attention to detail. It was a pleasure dealing with your team, and the work was completed to a very high standard.

    FAQ - find out more about Rope Access Pointing & Re-Pointing

    What is rope access pointing?

    Rope access pointing involves using ropes and specialised abseiling techniques to repair and maintain the mortar between bricks on a structure. This method is efficient, safe, and cost-effective as it eliminates the need for extensive scaffolding.

    Why is re-pointing necessary?

    Re-pointing is crucial because faulty mortar can lead to water infiltration, which compromises the structural integrity of a building. Over time, rain and wind find their way into cracks, accelerating masonry deterioration. Addressing this issue helps maintain the beauty and safety of your property.

    Where do you offer your services?

    While based in London, RAIL provides rope access pointing services across the UK, Europe, and worldwide.

    How cost-effective is rope access re-pointing?

    Using innovative rope access methods reduces costs associated with erecting scaffolds. This approach also minimises disruption to the building's occupants and allows quicker project completion. Therefore, it's a budget-friendly solution without compromising on quality.

    Is rope access safe for high-rise buildings?

    Yes, using IRATA-certified abseilers ensures that all work conducted on high-rise buildings adheres to stringent safety standards. Our experienced team performs thorough inspections and employs best practices to ensure, a secure working environment at all times.
