CAVITY WALL TIE REPLACEMENT

STRUCTURAL REPAIRS AND WALL STABILISING

How a building was constructed, the age of the building, the soil conditions and the weather can all cause buildings to suffer problems with subsidence, cracked brickwork, bowing or leaning walls. Helifix repairs will be required when, there is the lack of lateral support due to the building's age, the property was built on reactive soils, such as clay, and how the building was initially built.

EXPANSION JOINTS

Expansion joints may need to be created from defects such as thermal expansion and contraction, brick growth, foundation movement. There are various methods for the creation of expansion/movement/control joints. All involve cutting through the face of the masonry with the use of cutting saws, grinders or even chain saws with diamond teeth. We carry all the specialist cutting equipment.
