Architectural Metal Maintenance

Property managers also realize that the exterior metal of their buildings need a regular maintenance program. In most cases, in an effort to balance an owner’s budget, property managers are forced to apply the rationalization that “The neglect of the exterior metal is a lot less noticeable than the neglect of the interior shiny metals”. Unfortunately, years go by with little to no exterior metal maintenance, leaving the metal susceptible to atmospheric deterioration. A preventative exterior metal maintenance program of main entranceways, atriums and other high visibility areas is relatively inexpensive. The metal, if left unmaintained, will become susceptible to atmospheric pollution, pitting and oxidizing caused by the ultraviolet radiation from the sun.

In most cases, Scottie’s Building Services can restore these metals and apply a protective coating. In more severe cases, very costly painting is the only option. Scottie’s Building Services can help keep the exterior of buildings protected and looking pristine. We have developed an Aluminum Curtain Wall Restoration and Preventative Maintenance Program. We actually remove years of atmospheric pollution from the anodized aluminum frames and anodic finished panels. We then apply a protective coating to help combat recurring stains. With a preventative maintenance program established, the exterior metal curtain wall will shine for years to come. The owners can rest assured that their investment is indeed being protected.

Scottie’s Building Services has developed proprietary methods in accordance with the American Architectural Manufacturers Association to safely and effectively remove years of neglect and pollution from all exterior anodized aluminum and anodic finished frames, panels, columns etc.
