FAÇADE REMEDIATION AND RETROFIT SERVICES
Specialist expertise for
complex buildings.
IRS is a specialist Principal Contractor delivering Façade Remediation and Fire Safety Compliance, External Wall Insulation and Whole-House Retrofit across occupied residential buildings.
Different projects demand different technical solutions. Our approach remains the same: understand the building, identify the risk, bring the right expertise together and take control of delivery.
Three areas of specialist expertise.
One disciplined approach, one point of accountability, whatever the building needs.
Façade Remediation
and Fire Safety Compliance
Replacing hazardous materials, with works delivered through the BSR Gateways in England and Building Standards in Scotland.
- External cladding and EWI replacement
- Cavity barriers and fire barriers
- Compartmentation and fire doors
- Balcony replacement
External Wall
Insulation
Where the business began. Building envelope knowledge put to work on occupied homes.
- Thermal performance and reduced heat loss
- Weather protection and appearance
- PAS 2030 approved installers
- Members of SWIGA and INCA
Whole-House
Retrofit
Coordinated retrofit built around how the whole building works.
- Roofing, windows and doors
- External, internal, loft and floor insulation
- Heating and ventilation upgrades
- Air source heat pumps
The service is only part of the solution.
Complex projects involve far more than the work visible on the building. Design information, regulation, materials, programme, quality, residents, specialists, change and evidence all have to remain connected.
As Principal Contractor, IRS brings those elements into controlled construction delivery.
Direct teams.
Direct procurement.
Practical expertise.
Progressive evidence.
Some of the most valuable work happens before construction starts.
Through early engagement and PCSA, IRS can support buildability, material selection, sequencing, logistics, programme, cost and resident impact while there is still time to influence the solution.
Resolve risk before it reaches site, and before it reaches residents.
People live here while we work.
Working in occupied residential buildings changes how a project needs to be planned. Access, communication, sequencing, working hours and disruption all form part of the delivery plan.
Different regulations. The same discipline.
IRS delivers across different regulatory environments. The route depends on where the building is; the discipline behind construction control, quality, information and evidence does not.
