Services

Inspection-led support for issues that are hard to reach.

The service offer starts with getting eyes, evidence and practical recommendations on the issue. When the next step is clear, remedial work can follow without arranging a separate access package.

Inspection-first support

Inspection deliverables for difficult areas.

Rope access is used to reach the issue, capture useful evidence and give FM teams, landlords and building managers a clear route forward.

  • Defect photography and condition notes
  • Leak tracing and roofline observations
  • Recommended next steps for records or approval
Checks and testing

Ladders, fixings, anchors and technical checks.

Support for ladder inspections, fixed-access checks, anchor bolt testing, fixing verification and torque checks where a focused rope-access visit is the most practical route.

Remedial follow-on

Cleaning, painting, mastic and sealant work.

When the inspection points to a practical fix, remedial work can be completed while access is already in place, keeping disruption low for the site team.

01

Send the issue

Share the building type, location, issue, photos and any site requirements or access restrictions.

02

Scope the access

IX Technical confirms whether rope access is suitable, what team size is needed and whether the work needs a straightforward visit or a tailored scope.

03

Attend and complete

The team attends with the planned access method, carries out the inspection, testing or in-scope works, and keeps disruption low for the building.

04

Handover clearly

Receive photo evidence, findings and recommended next steps for records, approvals or remedial follow-on work.

Typical projects

Commercial issues where fast evidence matters.

Inspection-led rope access is suited to external defects, roofline issues and follow-on remedial tasks where fast evidence helps the site team decide what to do next.

01

Roofline defect inspection

Access hard-to-reach elevations, photograph defects, confirm likely next steps and reduce guesswork before remedial spend.

02

Leak tracing and external checks

Review gutters, downpipes, joints and visible ingress points where access equipment would otherwise slow the response down.

03

Follow-on remedial visit

Complete mastic, sealant, cleaning or painting tasks where the scope is clear and the access plan is already suitable.
