9 Dorp Street – The Construction Co.

This was a highly visible and sensitive project in the busiest section of the CBD. The heritage aspects of the old building had to be carefully preserved while refurbishment took place. A customised steel system had to be engineered to preserve certain heritage elements of the façade.

The entire concrete façade had to be mechanically grinded and treated with a specialised product followed by specialist coating to achieve an off-shutter concrete finish.

The work took place in windy conditions with special care being taken not to disrupt traffic below and the neighbouring office and residential blocks.

Due to delamination of the concrete we had to repair it and then match the new specialist coating to the existing heritage off shutter concrete finish of the building.

The end result was particularly pleasing to the eye.
