Estates & Property Groups
For over two decades, Styles Façade Solutions® (formerly Thomann-Hanry®) has been the trusted partner to some of the largest estates and property groups in Europe, offering a full complement of solutions to inspect, maintain and restore prestigious heritage and commercial properties of all shapes and sizes; delivering reliable facade cleaning services for property groups who demand the highest standards.
Using our specialist fleet of MEWPs (Mobile Elevating Work Platforms), we ensure that all façade inspections, cleaning, repair, and restoration requirements are conducted without the need for scaffolding wherever possible. This reduces the inconvenience and additional costs that shrouding a building for months at a time can cause to your tenants.
Throughout every stage of occupancy for your properties, Styles Façade Solutions® acts as your primary strategic façade solutions partner, keeping your buildings clean, repaired and structurally sound to help manage long-term asset value while reducing unnecessary maintenance costs.
FAÇADE SURVEYS
Understanding the risks that damaged and degraded façade materials pose is key to preventing financial and reputational damage. Falling masonry and dislodged building materials present a significant risk across heritage and commercial properties in high-density urban areas, where they can cause severe injury or death. When maintaining a diverse portfolio of properties, establishing a clear priority maintenance plan is vital to reducing risk.
Our team can plan, implement and execute comprehensive condition surveys across your property assets, providing a better understanding of what repairs are required and when. This critical data helps you to effectively plan and manage your capital expenditure budget throughout the year.
Our qualified team of façade specialists will inspect your buildings, and, where necessary, can immediately remove or remediate any urgent issues identified. A detailed, colour-coded report will then be produced, categorising and highlighting issues within structured one, six, or twelve-month priority windows, allowing you to prioritise and plan with total confidence.

FAÇADE CLEANING
Delivering an unbeatable restoration result, Façade Gommage from Styles Façade Solutions® offers a cleaning solution perfectly suited to heritage and commercial properties due its exceptionally low impact on the material fabric of the façade’s surface. This low-pressure, water-free and solvent-free cleaning process, gently lifts and removes all surface dirt and grime.
The added benefit of Façade Gommage, is that the system does not require the erection of vast swathes of expensive, time-consuming and unsightly scaffolding. The cleaning process is conducted from a self-contained truck-mounted cabin, which can be removed from the site at the end of each day to leave the building secure and uncompromised.
With a system which is fast and effective, we can strip years of dirt, grime and biofilm from the façade to reveal its original colour and architectural detail. As a mobile operation, works can be conducted out-side of normal business hours, ideal for properties which are in high foot-fall areas or have specific operational hours to help minimise on-site disruption.

FAÇADE MAINTENANCE, RESTORATION & REPAIR
There is a popular misconception that you must shroud your building in unsightly, expensive and time-consuming scaffolding to undertake façade maintenance works.
However, with over 20 years of heritage restoration experience, our maintenance team has a proven track record of delivering virtually all types of maintenance and restoration works from MEWPs. This offers a significant advantage, allowing for minimal disruption to the day-to-day operations of busy commercial office sites.
Using MEWPs instead of scaffolding, we have completed expert stone repairs, repointing, roofing, painting, mastic replacement and bird-proofing at many high-profile locations across London and further afield. There is no element of façade work that our restoration and repair team cannot carry out.
