When a building suffers from widespread defects, deterioration, or non-compliance, a piecemeal approach wastes time and money. Full building remediation projects take a holistic, engineered approach — identifying all critical issues, prioritising them, and delivering coordinated works that return the building to a near-new condition while meeting all relevant Australian Standards and regulatory requirements.

This process not only restores the safety and function of the building but also significantly improves its appearance, asset value, and marketability. By tackling all major repairs in one integrated program, we eliminate repeat scaffolding, reduce disruption, and ensure that all components work together as a complete system.

Our Process

1. Initial Investigation & Reporting
   • Comprehensive building condition assessment using physical inspection, non-destructive testing, and drone surveys.
   • Identification of structural issues, waterproofing failures, compliance gaps, and safety hazards.
   • Engagement with engineers, façade consultants, and building certifiers to develop a detailed remedial scope.
2. Remediation Master Plan
   • Develop a project program that sequences works logically — e.g., façade crack repairs before painting, roof replacement before waterproofing.
   • Coordinate with owners corporations, tenants, and strata managers to minimise disruption.
   • Secure necessary approvals, permits, and compliance documentation.
3. Execution of Works
   ‍Full building remediation can involve multiple scopes delivered in parallel, including:
   • Structural Repairs: Spalling, crack stitching, and load-bearing element upgrades.
   • Façade Repairs: Brick repointing, render restoration, concrete patching, cladding replacement.
   • Waterproofing: Balcony, terrace, podium, and roof membranes.
   • Compliance Upgrades: Fire safety, balustrade heights, glazing, access systems.
   • Aesthetic Improvements: Full repaint, coating systems, new glazing, and modernised finishes.
4. Quality Assurance & Certification
   • All works inspected and tested against relevant Australian Standards.
   • Full photographic documentation before, during, and after.
   • Final certification from engineers and consultants for compliance and warranty purposes.

Why Full Building Remediation Makes Sense

• Cost Efficiency: One program means one scaffold hire, one mobilisation, one set of approvals — saving owners significant costs.
• Long-Term Integrity: Coordinated repairs ensure all elements integrate properly, preventing one repair from undermining another.
• Value Uplift: Post-remediation, buildings often see substantial increases in valuation and rental potential.

Full building remediation is not just about fixing defects — it’s about resetting the clock on your asset’s lifespan. With Atomic Projects, you get a partner who understands the technical, regulatory, and logistical challenges of large-scale remedial projects and delivers them with Tier 1 quality and mid-market agility.
