WHAT'S REALLY HAPPENING TO YOUR BUILDING

Water ingress damage visible on building facade

WATER INGRESS

Moisture enters tiny cracks and seams, causing internal damage you can't see.

Failed sealant above a window frame, showing mould behind it.

FAILED SEALANT

Broken or missing sealants allow water penetration, leading to leaks and structural issues.

Concrete spalling and cancer on building structure

CONCRETE DETERIORATION

Exposed steel corrodes when moisture penetrates concrete, causing cancer and spalling that spreads over time, weakening the structure and safety.

Painted wall with paint blistered and peeled away exposing patchy substrate beneath

COATING FAILURE

Failing paint and coatings expose surfaces to UV, water and pollutants, accelerating decay.

Black and green biological growth colonising a window sill, reveal and frame

BIOLOGICAL GROWTH

Algae, lichen and mould trap moisture against surfaces, breaking down coatings and accelerating structural decay if left untreated.

Aged concrete roof tiles with heavy cracks and missing pointing on the ridge tiles

ROOF DETERIORATION

Cracked tiles, failed pointing and blocked gutters allow water in — causing leaks, internal damage and costly repairs over time.

THE COST OF DOING NOTHING

Minor unknown issues left untreated become major repairs

"Very impressed and grateful for Nick and team, from quote to finished product. We had an awkward area to reach on a busy street. Excellent communication, punctual and great workmanship. Highly recommend."
Carly C
"The team at Upkeep did a great job on a tough site in the middle of Coogee. Nick and the teams management of public safety was outstanding. I would definitely recommend them and will get then back on out next project."
John Currenti
"Highly recommend Upkeep's Painters!! Nick, Jesmond and team were very professional, kept us up to date on where our job was at with weeks of terrible weather and did a fantastic job repointing our roof and colour! House looks incredible and we couldn’t be happier! We recommend Upkeep for anyone looking for roof services!"
Bel K
"Nicholas and the Upkeep team were absolutely fantastic on our job in Turramurra. There was a reasonable level of complexity with a steep roof and gabled windows meaning they needed to rope up to get the painting done. All the lads were highhly professional and kept us informed throughout, we're a repeat customer and will use them again when needed. With appreciation."
Andrew Beer
"Jesmond is super honest, reliable and takes pride in his work. Excellent service and attention to detail. Our job was made tricky due to a slate roof and Upkeep took great care setting up access. Paint job was great with excellent attention to detail and a perfect colour match. Highly recommend."

FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS

What areas of Sydney does UPKEEP Co service?

We work across Sydney, including the CBD, Eastern Suburbs, Northern Beaches and North Sydney. We service strata and commercial buildings throughout the greater Sydney region.

Are your technicians qualified?

Yes. Our team holds IRATA and SPRAT rope access qualifications, and we're Dulux Accredited for painting. All work is carried out to Australian standards with full insurance.

What building maintenance services do you offer?

We cover painting, facade maintenance, remedial repairs, roof maintenance, pressure and soft washing, caulking and sealing, window cleaning, anchor installation and building inspections, all delivered by rope access where needed.

Do you provide building inspections and condition reports?

Yes. We carry out detailed facade and building inspections, documenting defects and maintenance needs so committees and managers can plan and budget with confidence.

Is rope access safe?

Yes. It's one of the safest methods of height work when performed by certified technicians. Our team follows strict IRATA and SPRAT protocols, with backup systems and rigorous safety checks on every job.

What is rope access and why use it?

Rope access is a certified method of reaching height using ropes instead of scaffolding or cranes. It's faster to set up, less disruptive to your building, and more cost-effective, with no scaffold hire or lengthy installation.

Do you work with strata and building managers?

Absolutely. Strata and commercial property is our core focus. We're set up to work with strata committees, building managers and facilities teams, and provide clear reporting and documentation.

Can you access high-rise or hard-to-reach areas?

Yes. Rope access lets us safely reach facades, high-rise exteriors and confined areas that are difficult or costly to access by scaffold or lift. It's what we specialise in.

How does the quote process work?

Get in touch with your building details and the work you need. We'll assess the scope, on-site where required, and provide a clear, itemised quote with no obligation.

Do you install and certify height safety systems?

Yes. We install anchor points, static lines and ladder brackets, including fall arrest and abseil systems, and provide certification and inspection to keep your building compliant.
