Dutchman repairs performed at 1785 Mass Ave.
Facade Inspections
We provide a complete testing service for building envelopes. This includes but is not limited to cladding systems, curtain walls, windows, doors, roofing systems and space frames. These inspections include an assessment of any damage, discoloration or functional deficiencies. Our specialists will visually inspect as well as test pointing, joints and seals and will open for internal inspection any potentially problematic areas. Detailed reports and repair proposals, where appropriate, will be provided to the client.
Building Access
Many of the projects we've completed, both for historic and modern structures, involve active buildings, where people are conducting business on a daily basis. The UBG team is quite accomplished at designing and providing safe entry and egress for the individuals visiting the building. In addition, we utilize mitigation techniques whereby our craftsmen and supervisors keep any interruptions to the site’s ‘business as usual’ atmosphere to a minimum.
Catalogue Support
We're here to help analyze, document and access your modern or historic structure to identify the potential for damage to your asset. We are able to support our clients establishing the best path forward on the maintenance or restoration of their assets through value engineering and our extensive experience in the restoration and maintenance space.
Facade Stabilization
UBG approaches facade stabilization by first identifying the structural method utilized in connecting the facade with the supporting structure of the building, i.e. whether it is load-bearing, structural or a veneer. A detailed assessment is made of both the condition of the facade, the causes of any failure and the approach to stabilization. Following stabilization, our team can provide restoration of parapets, railings and other elements of the structure.
Leak Investigation
UBG provides comprehensive leak investigation services. These include a detailed analysis of the leak, including an assessment of damage to structural and non-structural materials, including any potential structural failure, determination of root causes for the leak, whether due to design issues, original installation or subsequent repair, sealant failure, as well as flashing failure or design flaws. Repair or remediation plans will be developed for consideration by the client.
A/E Support
When necessary UBG can provide architectural/engineering support to the client, within appropriate guidelines for institutional and/or governmental projects.

Structural Repair

UBG provides a wide range of repair services for the structural envelope of historic and modern buildings. These services focus on an accurate assessment of the structure’s condition, identification of deteriorated areas, investigation regarding the cause of the damage and a detailed, prioritized and costed plan for the repair.

Concrete Repair

UBG provides concrete restoration services for both historic and modern structures. Following assessment of the structure, including cracks, major damage, efflorescence, biological growth, etc., a remedial plan is prepared. Structural repairs which contributed to the damage are repaired. Replacement pieces are custom fabricated as needed, with texture and color matching. Cleaning and stripping techniques are utilized to restore the concrete to its proper color and texture.
