Vertical Rope Access (VRA)
Rope access is a form of work positioning, initially developed from techniques used in climbing and caving, which applies practical ropework to allow workers to access difficult-to-reach locations without the use of scaffolding, cradles, or an aerial work platform. Rope access technicians descend, ascend, and traverse ropes for access and work while suspended by their harnesses.
We pride ourselves on our quality craftsmanship, excellent safety record, and creative solutions for challenging access problems.
Our team has the background and experience to handle complex jobs, such as the following:
Wind turbines need to be thoroughly inspected at various stages during their life cycle, namely after manufacturing, storage, transportation, or any suspected damage, as well as on a routine maintenance schedule. Our technicians will carry out thorough internal and external inspections and recommend any necessary repairs or parts replacements.
Bridges connect our society, so it is imperative that they be in good working order. We work with engineers and governing bodies to increase the longevity of these bridges by providing protective coatings, annual cleanings, and general maintenance services. Our premium services remove the need for heavy lift equipment, snooper and bridge maintenance trucks.
Our anchor inspections adhere to the rigorous standards and procedures set by Occupational Health & Safety and signed by a professional engineer.
Elevate your brand to new heights! With nearly a decade in the industry, our sign division specializes in sign and graphic installations. By using rope access, Highmark has pioneered installation techniques that allow our clients to save on costs while maintaining a high visual standard.
High Rise Window Cleaners, our window cleaning division, works on condominiums and commercial buildings to provide tenants with a streak-free view. Our rope technicians have a range of techniques, allowing them to cover more windows in a shorter amount of time, including those in hard-to-reach places.
We work with building owners and property managers to repair and maintain their condominiums and commercial towers. Our maintenance services include caulking, sealing, window repair, concrete repair, dusting, cleaning, and other procedures that preserve building quality and inspire tenant satisfaction.
We assist engineers, building owners, and project managers in completing challenging structural maintenance and installation projects.
Whether you need to apply protective coating to a widely-used bridge, do routine maintenance on a wind turbine, or clean the windows of a city center high rise, Highmark will find ways to safely reach the most difficult places and do a job that exceeds your expectations, not your budget.
