Remicon provides in-house remedial carpentry and structural building works for existing strata and commercial properties across Canberra. Our carpentry capability allows us to go beyond the visible defect, expose and reconstruct the underlying substrate, and reinstate the surrounding building elements as part of one coordinated remedial scope. When a window, door, balcony, roof or façade is opened up, the final repair often depends on what sits behind the finish. Having an experienced carpentry team within the remedial contractor allows the scope to account for framing, load paths, substrates, flashings, interfaces and reinstatement from the beginning rather than treating them as unexpected separate trades.
Water ingress, failed cladding, defective waterproofing and long-term deterioration leave concealed timber, framing and substrate materials requiring repair once external finishes are removed. Remicon exposes the affected construction, removes damaged or unsuitable substrate materials, completes the required framing and substrate repairs, and reinstates the building ready for the associated waterproofing, cladding, window, door or finishing system. This gives clients a complete repair pathway rather than a surface-level solution that assumes the concealed construction is sound.
Existing balconies present significant remedial challenges where the original construction has not achieved an appropriate step-down or threshold arrangement at the sliding door. Where the project design and existing structure allow, Remicon removes and raises a sliding door, reconstructs the supporting framework and substrate, and creates the space required for the nominated waterproofing, flashing and threshold detail. This type of rectification involves more than the door itself: the surrounding framing, lintel and support conditions, waterproofing upturns, cavity interfaces, sill support, flashings, cladding and internal and external finishes are all considered as part of the complete repair.
Remicon removes and reinstates existing windows, or supplies and installs replacement windows, where the existing installation prevents a compliant or durable remedial detail from being achieved. Typical reasons include missing or inadequate head flashings, incompatible interfaces with a replacement cladding system, deteriorated framing or substrate, water-ingress rectification, defective perimeter detailing, or a broader façade reconstruction. Removing the window allows the surrounding opening and concealed substrate to be assessed and reconstructed before the window, flashing and façade interfaces are reinstated.
Our in-house carpentry team installs new windows, external doors, internal doors and associated framing as part of standalone works or a broader remedial project. Remicon works with a range of Canberra and Sydney-based suppliers and sources window, door and associated building products competitively for the project requirements.
Remicon undertakes structural timber and framing repairs where existing building elements have deteriorated, been incorrectly constructed or require amendment as part of a remedial design. Where the repair affects structural capacity or load paths, the works are completed to the issued design or consultant and engineering requirements, so the carpentry scope supports the broader remedial solution without unsupported structural-design assumptions.
Roof leak rectification exposes issues beyond the roof sheeting itself. Remicon's carpentry capability allows roof remediation to incorporate amendments to timber substrates, framing, support details and associated building elements where required, particularly where new flashings, penetrations, skylights, roof interfaces or replacement roof components require changes to the existing supporting construction.
Where a remedial scope incorporates light-gauge steel framing or other designed steel framing components, Remicon coordinates removal and installation as part of the reconstruction works. Structural steel members, connections and load-bearing alterations follow the project design and relevant engineering requirements. Remicon executes designed structural works rather than acting as the structural designer.
A major advantage of Remicon's in-house carpentry capability is understanding how the surrounding building is assembled before a repair methodology is finalised. A leaking balcony door may involve the door frame, supporting timber, waterproofing, cladding, cavity, flashing and internal finishes. A failed window may require façade removal and substrate reconstruction before a durable flashing detail can be installed. A roof repair may expose framing that must be amended before the external system can be completed. By considering these connected elements from the outset, Remicon develops remedial scopes that allow for realistic construction sequences and a more complete repair.
Remicon provides remedial carpentry and structural repair services for strata managers, owners corporations, commercial property managers, builders, consultants and asset owners across Canberra. The service is particularly suited to existing buildings where a defect cannot be properly resolved without removing and reconstructing part of the surrounding building envelope or supporting substrate.
