How often should I maintain exterior coatings?
Exterior coatings and cladding need maintenance every 7-10 years as the layers deteriorate over time due to weather conditions & earth movement. This can cause your home to be ‘leaky,’ damage the internal structure and cost more money in the long run.
What are monolithic repairs?
Monolithic cladding refers to an exterior building surface that is constructed from a single, continuous material or system, providing a seamless and cohesive finish to enhance both aesthetics and structural integrity.
Some areas will always be more prone to wear and damage, so instead of replacing an entire facade, we can repair small sections at a time as needed.

What types of issues can monolithic repairs address?
Monolithic repairs can address a wide range of issues including cracks, spalling, delamination, and surface damage in building exteriors.
How long do monolithic repairs typically last?
The longevity of monolithic repairs depends on various factors including the extent of repairs performed, and environmental conditions such as weather conditions & earth movement. However, with maintenance scheduled every 7-10 years, your monolithic repairs and facade can last a lifetime.
How can I determine if my building needs monolithic repairs?
