Cladding remediation covers the assessment, approval and removal or replacement of external cladding on buildings to improve fire safety and meet current building regulations. A solicitor in this area handles investigations into liability for defective cladding, drafts and negotiates remediation contracts, coordinates with building owners, managing agents, contractors and fire-safety consultants, and negotiates funding and participation in government schemes. They orchestrate timelines, document risk allocations, and manage claims or disputes arising from defective façades and remediation works.
