Mixed-use buildings can contain different façade systems and construction details across residential, commercial and public areas. Remediation may be required because of fire safety concerns, defective cladding, water ingress, deterioration, failed interfaces or other façade defects.
The way the works are delivered also needs to consider the different uses within the building. Resident access, commercial operations, public areas, deliveries, working hours, temporary protection and phasing may all need to be coordinated as part of the remediation programme.
We work across a range of mixed-use developments, including:
Our remediation services cover ACM, HPL, rainscreen cladding, EWI, brick slips, curtain walling and associated façade elements.

Mixed-use buildings can experience façade defects across different areas of the building, including interfaces between residential, commercial and public spaces.
Combustible materials within external wall systems can present significant fire safety concerns and may require replacement or other remediation measures.
Loose, damaged, displaced or deteriorating cladding can create safety, weatherproofing and building performance issues.
Missing, damaged or incorrectly installed cavity barriers and fire stopping can compromise the intended fire performance of an external wall system.
Façade defects can allow water penetration, leading to damp, deterioration, corrosion and damage to internal finishes and building components.
Curtain walling can develop failed seals, defective interfaces, movement issues and other defects affecting weather resistance and overall façade performance.
Windows, balconies, spandrel panels and junctions between different façade elements can be sources of water ingress, deterioration, thermal issues and other performance defects.
Every remediation project starts with understanding the existing façade construction and the defects present.
Our dedicated survey team, Trident Facades Surveys, can undertake façade condition surveys and intrusive opening-up to establish existing construction, materials, fixing methods and defects.
Where required, findings can be developed into a FRAEW, technical assessment or remediation strategy defining the appropriate scope of works.
We can develop the required design and specification before delivering repair, replacement, cladding removal, insulation, fire-stopping and associated façade works.
Investigation → Assessment → Strategy → Design → Remediation → Completion
We support building owners, freeholders, managing agents, property managers, asset managers, facilities teams and other parties responsible for mixed-use developments.
Mixed-use façade remediation often involves coordinating different occupants and building uses. We plan works around:
Where appropriate, works can be phased around resident requirements, tenant operations, planned maintenance programmes and wider capital works.
The appropriate remediation route depends on the findings of the survey and assessment. Options can include:
The extent of remediation will depend on the existing construction, condition, defects identified and the requirements of the overall remediation strategy.

Investigating and addressing defects across façades serving residential, commercial, retail or other uses within the same development.
What Types Of Mixed-Use Buildings Do You Remediate?
Investigating and addressing defects across façades serving residential, commercial, retail or other uses within the same development.
Can Works Be Carried Out While The Building Is Occupied?
Investigating and addressing defects across façades serving residential, commercial, retail or other uses within the same development.
Do You Carry Out Façade Surveys?
Investigating and addressing defects across façades serving residential, commercial, retail or other uses within the same development.
Can You Remediate Different Façade Systems?
Investigating and addressing defects across façades serving residential, commercial, retail or other uses within the same development.
Can Mixed-Use Remediation Be Phased?
Investigating and addressing defects across façades serving residential, commercial, retail or other uses within the same development.
Can You Replace The Entire Façade?
Where required, full or substantial façade replacement can be undertaken based on the survey, assessment and remediation strategy.
