Managing a complex heritage environment

This heritage residential complex presented unique access and planning challenges. Original brickwork, modern glazing and multiple elevations required a tailored approach that protected the building's character while allowing work to be completed safely. Bax Clean also coordinated closely with building management to minimise disruption for residents.

A tailored approach for every elevation

Bax Clean developed a site-specific cleaning plan that addressed the property's heritage features, varied elevations, and restricted-access areas. Appropriate access methods were selected for each section of the building, allowing the team to safely clean external windows while protecting surrounding materials.

By coordinating closely with building management, the project was completed efficiently with minimal disruption to residents and day-to-day activities.
