Since the damaged blocks and bricks had already been identified, the rope access technicians were able to work in a targeted and methodical manner.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The project site, located in a densely populated urban area, presented an added logistical challenge: several other construction projects were underway on nearby buildings, further limiting available ground space. The team therefore chose to begin with the most accessible fa\u00e7ade, then adjusted its strategy for the remaining three sides of the tower based on space constraints and surrounding conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To maximize efficiency, the rope technicians used green stickers to mark intervention zones on the fa\u00e7ade from the roof. This visual mapping system allows them to target areas for repair more precisely, without wasting time, a particularly useful technique in rope work, where the perspective is quite different from that offered by scaffolding, where defects are visible at eye level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each workday begins with a mandatory safety meeting. All potential hazards, such as heat exposure, allergies, and more, are discussed. Preventive measures are recorded, emergency contact information is confirmed, and all team members sign the safety log. This daily protocol ensures a secure and well-controlled work environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On this project, the interventions focused primarily on:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2003<\/span><b>Repointing<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Several mortar joints showed visible cracks, often identifiable by fissures running through the bricks or blocks. The rope access team worked in stages, removing the old mortar by grinding, carefully cleaning the joints, and applying fresh mortar.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2003<\/span><b>Caulking<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Some sealants were cracked or deteriorated. They were carefully removed and replaced to restore the fa\u00e7ades\u2019 waterproofing integrity.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2003<\/span><b>Replacement of cracked blocks<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Damaged masonry blocks were removed and replaced with new blocks, in keeping with the building\u2019s original appearance.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2003<\/span><b>Treatment of exposed rebar<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Over time, some structural reinforcements had become visible and started to rust, causing visible streaks on the fa\u00e7ades. To address the issue, the team cleaned the exposed steel with a wire brush, then applied a protective product (Armatex) to prevent future deterioration of the elements.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Throughout the project, photographs were taken before, during, and after each intervention. This thorough documentation ensured full traceability and confirmed that every item in the plan was executed as intended.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks to these well-established methods, Atwill-Morin successfully completed the project with both efficiency and transparency, a level of diligence reflected in the client\u2019s satisfaction and the continued trust of its partners.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4856,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"categorie-etude-cas":[174],"class_list":["post-4851","etude-de-cas","type-etude-de-cas","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categorie-etude-cas-multi-residential"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v27.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Preventive Maintenance on a Condo Tower in Montreal: A Vertical Approach Designed for Efficiency | Atwill<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/atwill-morin.com\/en\/case-study\/preventive-maintenance-on-a-condo-tower-in-montreal-a-vertical-approach-designed-for-efficiency\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Preventive Maintenance on a Condo Tower in Montreal: A Vertical Approach Designed for Efficiency\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"From the very beginning, the Atwill-Morin team followed the intervention plan established by the consulting firm with precision.
