Cladding Remediation & Recladding Services

Investigation, replacement and rebuilding of existing cladding, with fire and cavity-barrier coordination and recorded QA.

One bay, four states.

How a remediation package reads on site — from the as-found elevation to the recorded handover.

01 · Existing

The as-found elevation — weathered cassettes, open joints, the survey zone marked for opening-up.

02 · Opened

Panels drawn back under controlled opening-up: membrane, insulation, carrier grid and cavity-barrier datums exposed for the assessors.

  • Breather membrane
  • Mineral-wool insulation
  • Carrier grid & brackets
  • Cavity barrier on the floor datum

03 · Rebuilt

The specified assembly reinstated as one system — barriers seated on the floor datums, new skin closed out.

04 · Recorded

Every concealed layer photographed and referenced before cover — bay, level and datum — into the handover file.

Delivery record

A certified remediation record.

The delivery history behind this family includes a major remediation package on a residential high-rise in London N1 — roof and cladding remediation, balcony waterproofing and 90-minute structural intumescent protection from level six to ground — undertaken by Dmitro Development and supported by project delivery records.

Held as an internal project record; not yet published as a named case study.

The sequence

Opening-up to handover, one accountable process.

Every stage produces something the project team can hold: a record, a sign-off, a file. The order below is the order on site.

  1. 01Investigation & opening-up

    Controlled opening-up so the appointed assessors can record the as-built condition. Each position is protected, kept weather-tight and reinstated.

    Produces — Opening-up schedule and location records

  2. 02Design-team coordination

    Buildability and interface input to the remediation specification that the project’s designers and fire engineers produce and own.

    Produces — Agreed details and sample sign-offs

  3. 03Controlled strip

    Sequenced removal of the existing system, planned so every elevation is closed and weather-tight at the end of each working day.

    Produces — Strip sequence and daily closure records

  4. 04Specified rebuild

    Barriers, insulation, membranes, carrier grid and the new skin installed strictly to the issued specification — one buildable system, not separate trades.

    Produces — Installation QA sheets per bay and level

  5. 05Concealed-work records

    Every layer photographed and referenced before it is covered — tied to bay, level and datum so nothing concealed is unrecorded.

    Produces — Concealed-works photo register

  6. 06Handover

    The record set compiled with O&M input into the handover file, ready for the project’s own assessment and certification route.

    Produces — Handover pack for the project file

Recorded work

If it gets covered, it gets recorded first.

Capability

Three lanes, one workface.

Dedicated service pages will follow — the scope is delivered today under this family.

Recladding

Full strip-and-recover of elevations, including complete cladding replacement — new support grid, cavity barriers, insulation, membranes and panels rebuilt as one system, sequenced so occupied elevations are closed and weather-tight between shifts.

Cladding remediation

Remedial works to existing cladding systems, built to the remediation specification issued by the project design team — barrier lines reinstated and recorded at floor zones, openings and compartment boundaries.

Cladding investigation & opening-up

Controlled opening-up so assessors can record the as-built condition — positions protected, kept weather-tight and reinstated, with the findings recorded for the design team.

Straight answers

What stays with the assessors.

  • Dmitro does not issue EWS1 certificates — those remain with qualified assessors.
  • Dmitro does not provide independent fire-engineering sign-off — packages are built to the specification that fire engineers and designers produce.
  • Water and fire testing is coordinated with qualified specialists where the project requires it.
  • CHAS and Constructionline support contractor credibility; they are not a substitute for fire engineering, EWS1 or statutory assessment.
