The building, which is about 40 metres high, was built in the 1970s. 202 balconies, distributed over the two building fronts, were to be renovated and repaired. The concrete surfaces of the balconies required renovation. For the typical concrete fascias, repair was out of the question. In order to save costs, the entire refurbishment was carried out with the aid of rope-operated suspended scaffolding. This was lowered from the roof which made it possible to renovate 13 balconies in one step.

- Short description
- The concrete surfaces of the balcony parapets were repaired and a surface protection was applied. This has a hardening effect, is alkali-resistant, open to water vapour diffusion and water-repellent. The prepared substrate was then painted with a mineral paint in accordance with a specified colour concept. In order to implement this individual concept, a special colour shade was produced that exactly met the customer's requirements. The balcony fronts were replaced and covered with a metal sheet.
