Wollongong: Apartment Building Repaint by Rope Access
The building
A four-storey apartment building in Wollongong, with balconies on the upper floors and a row of shops under an awning at street level. Before the job, the façade was painted orange.
The challenge
The whole exterior was to be repainted in a lighter colour. The façade rises straight above the shopfronts and the footpath. Working on ropes from above meant no scaffold standing on the footpath in front of the shops.
What we did
Our technicians worked the façade on ropes from the top down, one drop at a time. The new colour went on in vertical bands, so the progress is easy to see in the photos below.



Result
The exterior was repainted from top to bottom by rope access, changing the building from orange to a light, neutral colour.
