Design and Build Overcladding Specialists

D+b Facades is the UK’s leading design and build overcladding specialist in the HE/FE sector with an unrivalled track record of delivering high-quality external refurbishment projects on time, within budget and with minimal disruption. We provide total building envelope solutions, with particular expertise in aluminium rainscreen overcladding integrated with high-performance replacement windows. Projects are delivered whilst buildings remain fully occupied. Single point responsibility is taken for the entire project, from design through installation to handover of completed building and all works are fully warranted.
 
Sustainability Statement

As external refurbishment specialists, our expertise is in sustainably recycling existing buildings by transforming them from ageing, unappealing, poorly-performing buildings into contemporary structures indistinguishable in appearance and performance from an equivalent new-build but for a fraction of the cost, thereby meeting the many faces of sustainability. The new aesthetic enhances the institution’s brand and competitiveness, heating energy consumption and operational carbon emissions are reduced by up to 70% and the building’s useful life is extended by a further 60 years. Our proprietary aluminium rainscreen is comprised of predominantly recycled materials which are themselves 95% recyclable at the end of their 60 year expected life.
