Façade Retention Services
Preserving Heritage. Enabling Progress.
At Primal Demolition, we specialise in façade retention—a technique that allows for the preservation of historic or architecturally significant building exteriors while enabling modern development behind them. It’s the perfect balance between conservation and innovation.
What is Façade Retention?
Façade retention involves carefully supporting and preserving a building’s exterior walls while the internal structure is demolished or redeveloped. This approach maintains the historical character and streetscape of a building, often required in conservation areas or heritage-listed sites.

We provide full-service façade retention solutions, from early-stage planning and engineering design to on-site structural works and project management. Whether it’s a full-height steel retention frame or a partial façade support system, our team delivers tailored solutions to meet architectural, structural, and regulatory requirements.
