DIFFICULT ACCESS? WE HAVE A WAY UP.
Some building maintenance problems aren't difficult because of the repair — they're difficult because of access.
American Rope Access specializes in reaching challenging areas of commercial and high-rise buildings using the most appropriate access method for the project.
OUR ACCESS CAPABILITIES
Rope Access
Reach elevated and difficult areas without the setup required for traditional scaffolding.
Boom & Aerial Lifts
For projects where powered access provides an efficient solution.
Swing Stage & Suspended Access
Effective access for larger façades and multi-story buildings.
Specialized Access & Rigging
Solutions for unusual structures, architectural features, and challenging work environments.
Whether the project involves a water leak, inspection, window work, painting, caulking, or exterior maintenance, we determine the safest and most efficient way to reach it.
If it's difficult to access, that's where we come in.
WHAT WE OFFER
Water Leak Detection & Water Intrusion Testing
Water intrusion doesn't always enter where the damage appears. A leak can travel behind walls, through building assemblies, along window frames, or through failed sealants before becoming visible inside a building.
ARA provides professional water leak detection and water intrusion testing to help identify where water is entering and determine the likely source.
Our process includes:
- Visual inspection
- Controlled water testing
- Moisture detection & thermal imaging
- Documentation & findings
Our rope access capabilities allow us to investigate elevated windows, curtain walls, façades, skylights, exterior joints, and other difficult-to-access areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
Please reach us at Contact@americanropeaccess.us if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Most leaks come from failed window seals, cracked façades, or improper waterproofing. The fastest and most accurate method is a controlled water test performed from the exterior. American Rope Access (ARA) uses rope access to reach the exact leak source without disturbing tenants or requiring heavy equipment.
We offer same-week leak inspections across Los Angeles.
Rope access allows our certified technicians to reach any part of your building efficiently and safely—often at a fraction of the cost of scaffolding. It’s quicker, cleaner, and ideal for high-rise leak detection, façade inspections, and repairs.
ARA’s SPRAT-certified team minimizes downtime and lowers project costs.
Yes. In many cases rope access can still be performed safely using temporary anchor systems, portable rigging setups, or non-penetrating weighted anchors—depending on your roof structure. Our team inspects the site and determines the safest method that meets industry safety standards.
ARA can evaluate your building and recommend the right anchor solution so work can begin quickly and safely.
