Access Methods for High-Level Glass Replacement
Safe access is a critical part of any high-level glass replacement project. Where façades, atriums or glazed roofs cannot be reached safely using scaffolding or powered access, rope access provides a controlled and efficient solution.
Our IRATA-qualified specialists plan and deliver site-specific access strategies that support the safe removal and replacement of glass at height. Rope access allows precise handling of glazing, sealing works and component upgrades while minimising disruption to occupants and reducing the footprint of access equipment.
Every project is supported by detailed risk assessments, method statements and safety management processes, ensuring glass replacement is carried out in full compliance with regulations while maintaining building operations throughout.
Health & Safety Regulations
At Evander, our dilapidations surveys fully comply with UK health and safety legislation, including the Health and Safety at Work Act, the Work at Height Regulations and Regulation 14 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations, which governs the safety of glazing in the workplace. Our specialists assess the condition of glazing systems, surrounding building components and any hazards that could affect compliance, occupant safety or future maintenance. Each report outlines any regulatory breaches, associated risks and the required actions, helping duty holders maintain a safe environment and meet their legal obligations during property handover.
