Recladding

Recladding specialists for commercial and residential developments across the UK.

At REL Maldon, we offer nationwide recladding services you can trust — ensuring your building stays safe, compliant, and built to the highest standards of safety.

What Is Cladding Remediation?

Cladding remediation, also known as recladding, involves inspecting, removing and replacing unsafe or non-compliant external cladding systems to meet the latest fire safety and building regulation standards. This process is essential for reducing fire risks and ensuring long-term compliance with UK safety legislation.

Why Recladding Matters

After the Grenfell Tower tragedy in 2017, the UK brought in stronger regulations to improve cladding safety in high-rise and multi-occupancy buildings. Since then, a nationwide recladding effort has been underway to replace unsafe cladding, improve fire safety, and make buildings safer for everyone.

Why Choose REL

Recladding projects require experience, technical expertise, and clear accountability. Here's why clients across the UK choose to work with us:

FIRAS Accredited

Our FIRAS certification confirms we're qualified to deliver fire protection works that comply with UK regulations and statutory safety standards.

£10 Million Professional Indemnity Insurance

We're fully insured, giving you real protection and confidence at every stage of your project. Clients rely on us for clear communication, strong documentation, and full accountability from start to finish.

In-House Design Team

Our dedicated design team works directly with you — no outsourcing, no handovers. That means faster responses, clearer coordination, and solutions that are tailored, compliant, and build ready.

Tested In-House Cladding Systems

We design and rigorously test our own rainscreen cladding systems in-house. Built for fire safety, durability, and performance, these aren't off-the-shelf products, they're proven systems we know inside and out.

How we can help

We work closely with building owners, managing agents, and leaseholders to deliver recladding projects that meet post-Grenfell safety requirements and that are fully aligned with FRAEW guidance and BSR standards.

We prioritise fire safety at every stage of the recladding process. In line with the Building Safety Act, we apply the Golden Thread - ensuring compliance, transparency, and safer buildings from design through to completion.
