Rope Access Cleaning, painting and Maintenance

Rope Task specialist rope access teams carry out varied maintenance painting and cleaning contracts using rope access techniques.

The speed at which Rope Task can respond to call outs and the installation of the rope access system can in most cases be less than 24 hours. Rope Task’s abseilers have over 10 years experience of industrial and commercial contracting on long and short term contracts. From using abseil painters through to abseilers removing large sheets of exterior glazing, all areas of building maintenance is covered by our rope access teams.

Contracts that Rope Task have recently completed are removal of curtain walling from Beetham Tower, these pieces of glass, weighing up to 900kg each were removed and replaced by rope access technicians. Glazing panels were safely removed and replaced using a detailed procedure and risk assessment that was completed by Rope Task and approved by leading UK construction contractors.

Rope access painting services were carried out at Liverpool Bulk Terminal on behalf of eon UK. This contract required rope access teams to slurry blast and apply specialist coatings to the two ship un-loaders at the site. Along with difficult access to the boom ties of the cranes, this contract was also carried out above the open dock area. This again proved that Rope Task could overcome the problem of difficult access to the work site and working over water. Our rope access team completed the slurry blasting and specialist coating of the front boom ties and “A” frame shaped structure of the ship un-loader.

Window cleaning is also a regular requirement of building managers. Rope Task teams offer a fast and cost effective cleaning service to many large property management companies such as Initial, CBRE, Lambert Smith Hampton, King Sturge and The Beetham Organisation. Over the years Rope Task have built up a reputation of high quality work with a friendly service. Our rope access window cleaning team covers the whole of the UK.

Specialist services can also include rock drilling that is again carried out using rope access techniques. Here we see a Rope access technician rock drilling on a cliff face in Northern Ireland.
