Retrofit Balcony & Terrace Solutions
The Benefits of Balcony Retrofitting
Retrofitting offers numerous advantages over full-scale renovations, especially for commercial properties that need to balance improvements with operational continuity. By opting for retrofit solutions, you can:
- Save on Costs: Retrofit installations often require fewer materials and resources, leading to cost savings compared to new installations.
- Reduce Downtime: Our retrofit products are quick and easy to install, minimising downtime and disruption to the property.
- Enhance Sustainability: Retrofitting extends the life of existing structures, reducing waste and preserving resources that would otherwise be used in a full replacement.
Our retrofit systems integrate seamlessly with existing balcony and terrace frameworks, enabling you to elevate older buildings to modern standards efficiently and affordably.
Durable Surface Finishes
-
Aluminium Decking
View moreKnown for its resilience against harsh weather and foot traffic, aluminium decking is an ideal choice for retrofit projects. Its light weight makes it easy to handle and install, especially on older structures with weight restrictions.

Porcelain Paving

Safety and Compliance
Safety and regulatory compliance are paramount, especially in retrofits where older structures may need enhanced protection. Our drainage and wind-uplift solutions are designed to integrate easily with existing setups, ensuring compliance and promoting safety:
- Efficient Drainage: Proper drainage is essential to prevent water pooling and potential damage to underlying structures. Our retrofit drainage solutions direct water away from the surface, preserving both the finishes and the structural integrity of your balcony or terrace.
- Wind-Uplift Resistance: Our wind-uplift solutions ensure that surfaces remain secure, even in high winds. This is particularly important in retrofit applications where existing support structures may not have been built to modern wind-load standards.
With these solutions, you can confidently upgrade balconies and terraces, knowing they meet all necessary safety regulations.
