Description:
With the ever increasing complication and performance demands on buildings, there is a need to accurately communicate the client and designers’ intentions to those who have a responsibility for executing the façades of modern buildings. Wintech is a Façade Engineering Consultancy whose primary objective is to bring to the table Design & Audit Services to improve the quality of façades whilst reducing associated risk and cost. Our Engineers are proactive members of the design team & are able to help deliver best value to projects by being fully involved in the early iterative strategic stages of the development of major projects.

The external envelope of any building is one of the 

most important and expensive elements of the 

construction of modern buildings and can represent a 

significant contingent risk to existing building owners 

and new purchasers.  A condition report is a significant 

consideration in the value of a building and any potential 

liability thereafter in the context of invest decisions.  

Aquisition inspections, condition and due diligence surveys providing 

information that allows Clients and Professional Teams to make informed 

decisions on future maintenance and replacement of the facade. 

Diagnostic reports, defects investigations and fault finding surveys that 

allow an accurate understanding to be formed and decisions made on the 

most appropriate route to facade correction once the magnitude of the 

defect has been established. 

Consultancy, site testing and design departments all employ fully 

qualified, highly competent engineers who have a grounded appreciation 

for issues blighting a facade at any stage throughout its life; from 

conception to decommissioning.

Intrusive surveys include plant and the labour needed to make-good any 

evidence of intrusion recognising that Clients need to be able to operate 

their buildings with the minimum disruption. 

Double Glazed Unit life expectancy predictions, endoscope surveys and 

glass coating analysis are just some of the diagnostic methods employed in 

the evaluation of buildings, providing the Client with appropriate analytical 

data in support of any reports. 

Specialist rope access inspections on tall or limited access buildings can 

be provided, using our own M.Sc. qualified consultants abseiling to parts 

of buildings normally considered inaccessible.

There is no substitute for practical design based experience 

supported by proper academic qualifications to underpin 

facade services.

Wintech façade consultants are qualified with the majority having

a Masters Degree in Façade Engineering (University of Bath) 

and are members of the Society of Façade Engineers, affiliated 

to CIBSE, IStructE and RIBA. Previous industry experience gives 

further appreciation for the factors that influence performance 

and life expectancy of existing buildings.

Wintech have a proven track-record in diagnosis survey and 

design of remediation schemes on major international projects 

throughout the world.

Wintech offer a warranty backed design for any consequential 

‘nuts and bolts’ remediation scheme adopted following a 

consultancy survey. Site monitoring of remedial schemes ensures 

the construction is completed to an appropriate standard by the 

relevant subcontractor.
