What we do

Full-service climbing wall care, to one standard

Inspection, maintenance, repair and design — delivered against BS EN 12572, by an IRATA Level 3 technician who reaches every part of the structure up close. One practice for the whole life of the wall.

01

Inspection

The core of what we do. Every wall is assessed against the same three-tier framework — routine visual, operational, and main (annual) — with every finding categorised 1–5 against a fixed action timescale and referenced to the clause it's assessed against. You get a report whose conclusions follow from what was found.

  • Protection points mapped and referenced individually
  • Wall surface, holds and substructure
  • PPE and belay equipment in the same visit
  • Anchor pull-testing where required
  • Defect history with photographs
  • Findings reported on-site, to BS EN 12572
02

Maintenance

Keeping a wall serviceable between inspections — the routine care that stops small issues becoming reportable defects. Scheduled or responsive, and documented so the record stands up at the next examination.

  • Hold cleaning, tightening and re-tapping
  • Fixing point and T-nut servicing
  • Lower-off and quickdraw replacement
  • Route stripping and re-setting support
  • Matting checks and tab replacement
  • Corrosion treatment in adverse environments
03

Repair

Putting right what inspection finds — from resin and surface damage to structural connections and anchor replacement. Work is carried out to the manufacturer's requirements and the relevant standard, and documented so remediation can be closed out and verified.

  • Surface, resin and GRP repair
  • Anchor and protection point replacement
  • Substructure and fixing remediation
  • Corrosion protection and re-coating
  • Post-repair verification and sign-off
  • Remediation records for the duty holder
04

Design

New structures and modifications designed to BS EN 12572-1 and -2. A deliberate part of what we do — bringing the same standards knowledge that underpins our inspection work to the way a wall is built in the first place.

  • New climbing structure design
  • Modification and extension design
  • Protection point layout and spacing
  • Design to BS EN 12572-1 and -2

How an inspection works

What to expect, from booking to sign-off

Commissioning an examination for the first time? It's straightforward. Three stages, one visit, one clear report.

Stage 01

Book it in

Tell us the wall, the site and when it's due. We confirm scope — inspection, PPE, any known issues — and arrange a date that works around your timetable.

Stage 02

On-site examination

We inspect the structure up close using rope access — protection points, surface, holds, substructure and PPE — assessing every finding against the standard, on the day.

Stage 03

Report and sign-off

You receive a report with every finding categorised 1–5 and referenced to its clause, so you know exactly what needs doing, by when, and what can simply be monitored. Each report is produced from a structured inspection record, so findings stay consistent and traceable from one visit to the next.

The standards we work to

Everything traces back to a requirement

Our reports name the standard and edition they're assessed against — not "industry best practice" in the abstract. The core references:

BS EN 12572-1ACS with protection points — safety requirements and test methods
BS EN 12572-2Bouldering walls — safety requirements and test methods
