Expert Evaluation
To professionally renovate old or damaged buildings it is essential to carry out a building diagnostic examination beforehand, with a complex approach. These examinations- during which it is imperative to identify the cause-and-effect relationships- aim to solve problems in the long-term. Without these, without the detection of the source of the damages the problems disappear only seemingly or only for a short period of time.
Our company has an expert history of 17-years in providing professional advice in building construction and in providing comprehensive building diagnostics for monuments and historic buildings. The most critical topic in the field is to remedy damp problems in buildings; professional repair of incomplete or outdated waterproofing, damage to bathrooms and industrial kitchens. However, in many cases, an overall building structure diagnosis may be required to reveal the causes of problems affecting other structural systems of buildings (roofing, drainage systems, doors and windows, facade systems, etc.).
The findings of diligent on-site visits are confirmed, if required, by laboratory test results, which help to select the most applicable economical and efficient technologies for the required works. During renovations, we give preference to complete renovation concepts and their implementation in one phase, but if necessary, we propose renovation plans that can be carried out in a fixed order, but in several stages - and thus are cost effectve.
Resulting from the design approach of our company, besides the renovation proposals based on diagnostic tests, we prepare a complex insulation and technical renovation plan for the entire building, from waterproofing line design up to detailed plans.
