Leak Detection, Recladding & Structural Remediation Specialists

Wellington’s wind-driven rain and coastal exposure can place significant stress on residential buildings. When moisture penetrates the building envelope, the damage is often hidden - and can compromise framing, cladding and structural integrity over time.

Our Wellington weathertightness and structural repair specialists provide professional assessment, remediation and rebuild solutions to protect your property long term.

We work with:

• Homeowners
• Property investors
• Property managers
• Body corporates
• Insurance-related projects

From leak investigation to full structural reinstatement, we manage the process end-to-end.

Signs You May Have a Weathertightness Issue

Weathertightness problems are not always obvious. Warning signs may include:

• Damp internal walls
• Bubbling paint or plasterboard damage
• Musty smells
• Visible mould growth
• Soft or deteriorating exterior cladding
• Interior cracking around joinery

If left untreated, moisture ingress can lead to timber rot, corrosion and costly structural damage.

Early investigation significantly reduces long-term repair costs.

Our Weathertightness & Structural Repair Services

Leak Detection & Investigation

Identifying the source of moisture is critical.

We assess:

• Cladding systems
• Window and door flashings
• Roofing junctions
• Balconies and penetrations
• Deck connections
• Building envelope detailing

Clear reporting and recommendations are provided before repair work begins.

Rot & Structural Timber Repairs

Moisture-damaged framing and structural components must be properly addressed - not patched.

Our services include:

• Removal of compromised timber
• Structural reinforcement where required
• Framing replacement
• Subfloor repairs
• Reinstatement to current building standards

All work is carried out by licensed building professionals.

Recladding & Exterior Remediation

In more serious cases, partial or full recladding may be required to restore weathertightness.

We manage:

• Targeted cladding replacement
• Full recladding projects
• Cavity system upgrades
• Flashing improvements
• Compliance documentation

Our goal is long-term protection - not short-term fixes.

Structural Repairs After Water Damage

Where leaks have been ongoing, structural components may require remediation beyond surface repair.

We coordinate:

• Moisture removal and drying
• Structural rebuilding
• Internal lining replacement
• Insulation reinstatement
• Finishing and restoration

Everything is managed as a structured project — not isolated trade work.

Why Weathertightness Matters in Wellington

Wellington properties are exposed to:

• High winds
• Horizontal rain
• Salt air in coastal areas
• Older cladding systems
• Seismic movement

These factors increase the importance of a properly detailed and maintained building envelope.

Professional weathertightness repairs protect:

• Structural safety
• Property value
• Insurance compliance
• Long-term durability

Cutting corners with superficial repairs often leads to recurring issues.
