Specialist Facade Support Built on Experience and Excellence

Platinum Facades was established in 2019 with a clear mission: to provide UK contractors with reliable, high-quality facade support services they can depend on project after project.

Our team brings together over 100 years of accumulated experience in facade installation, testing and maintenance. Our combination of forward thinking and deep industry knowledge allows us to approach every project with both innovation and proven expertise.

We've deliberately focused our business model on two core services which are labour-only installation and CWCT facade water testing. This specialisation means we've become exceptionally good at what we do, and our partners know exactly what they're getting when they work with us.

Our Client-Centric Approach

Working in construction means dealing with tight deadlines, changing schedules, and the need for complete reliability. We've structured our entire business around the realities of contracting work.

⮕ Need a team on site at short notice? We make it happen.

⮕ Require testing to meet a handover deadline? We prioritise it.

⮕ Facing a repair that's holding up completion? We respond quickly.

This flexibility and responsiveness, is fundamental to how we operate.

UK Wide Coverage

Whether your project is in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow, or anywhere else across the UK, you work with the same Platinum Facades team and receive the same high standard of service.

Our nationwide coverage means you can build a relationship with one trusted partner rather than managing multiple regional contractors. We understand your processes, your standards and your expectations - and we deliver consistently regardless of location.

Why Big Brands Trust Platinum Facades

We are Specialists, Not Generalists

Unlike larger facade companies that spread themselves across supply, design, and installation, we've refined our focus to three specialist support services. This means every member of our team is an expert in their field - whether they're installing curtain walling systems, conducting CWCT water testing, or carrying out complex maintenance work.

Our operatives bring years of hands-on experience to your project. This specialisation translates directly into faster installation times, fewer issues, and consistently high-quality outcomes.

Technical Compliance

Every installation operative, testing technician and specialist holds the relevant qualifications and certifications for their role.

We invest continuously in training and equipment to ensure we're working with current best practices and the latest industry standards. When regulations change or new protocols emerge, our teams are already trained and ready.

This commitment to technical excellence protects you from compliance issues, reduces the risk of callbacks, and ensures your clients receive their products exactly as specified.

Our Commitment to You

When you partner with Platinum Facades, you're working with a team that genuinely cares about your project. We measure our success by your success. Projects completed on time and clients who come back to us again and again are of the utmost importance.

We're committed to maintaining the highest standards of workmanship, safety and professionalism on every project. We're committed to clear communication and responsiveness. We're committed to continuous improvement, learning from every project and every challenge to provide even better service.

Construction is a demanding industry at the best of times, and reliable partnerships make all the difference. We're here to be that reliable partner and the team you can count on to show up, deliver quality work and help you achieve your project goals.
