At Cutech, our rope access solutions provide a safe, quick and cost-effective way of performing inspection, maintenance, coating and cleaning at height. Our rope access specialists are IRATA or SPRAT certified, enabling them to deliver integrated NDT, coating and surface preparation services in high-risk, elevated and/or confined environments.
What is Rope Access?
Rope Access Overview
Rope access solutions involve the use of ropes, harnesses and specialist climbing equipment to reach difficult access areas without scaffolding or mechanical lifts.
This technique is widely used in inspection, maintenance and construction across industrial sectors.
Safe and Efficient Access to Elevated or Confined Work Areas
At Cutech, our rope access contractors work within strict safety frameworks to access elevated, vertical, or enclosed areas that would traditionally require scaffolding or cranes.
Rope access solutions are ideal for asset maintenance, shutdowns, tank inspections, and high-rise inspections.
Benefits Over Traditional Scaffolding or Cranes
Many rope access companies, including Cutech, use this method to safely complete inspection and maintenance tasks in difficult-to-reach areas.
It is a preferred alternative to scaffolding or cranes due to the following advantages:
- Faster setup and dismantling
- Lower cost and less disruption
- Minimal ground footprint and obstruction
- Improved access in confined or congested spaces
Why Use Rope Access for NDT and Maintenance?
At Cutech, we use rope access for NDT and maintenance procedures to reduce downtime while delivering accurate inspection results.
Our rope access contractors combine access with non-destructive testing, coating, surface preparation and insulation removal for complete service, delivering in one visit.
By comparison, traditional scaffolding can take days to erect and dismantle, adding cost, causing disruption, and requiring significant space.
