What are the common masonry repairs that you do?
Common masonry repairs address a variety of issues. These typically include the following.
Fixing cracks in the masonry structure, a frequent problem that can compromise the stability of the building.
Repointing, another common repair, involves replacing the mortar joints between bricks or stones.
Salt damp treatment is also often necessary, particularly in structures affected by moisture-related problems. If you notice a chalky or floury residue on the masonry, it may serve as an indicator that salt damp treatment is needed to mitigate the effects of moisture infiltration and ensure the long-term stability of the masonry.
Are there any masonry repairs that you don’t do?
No. We take pride in offering a comprehensive range of masonry repair services.
From repairing cracked bricks to restoring crumbling foundations, we have the expertise and experience to get the job done right.
When it comes to our capabilities, there are no limitations.
Can you fix salt damp issues?
Yes, we can fix a range of salt damp issues. One of the key methods is to use a damp course cream or (silicone ) DPC cream (Damp Proof Course) cream to manage salt damp issues effectively.
This solution is designed to be drawn into the capillaries of the brickwork, creating a chemical barrier that prevents moisture from penetrating the porous masonry. Water minerals, particularly those from stormwater, can cause structural damage and masonry deterioration as they crystallise inside the material.
Resolving these complex issues require a seasoned specialist like us who can accurately diagnose the underlying problems, and implement the appropriate solutions to safeguard your property from further damage and ensure its long-term stability.
Are masonry repairs important?
Masonry repairs are important. They can evolve from mere aesthetic concerns into potentially severe structural issues, as seen in the case of salt damp or rising damp.
These problems can escalate, and will possibly require substantial structural interventions. In extreme cases, the wall's structural integrity may be seriously damaged, to the extent that rebuilding or "undersetting," requires reconstructing the bottom part of the wall where the problem is concentrated.
Undersetting might involve removing and replacing deteriorated bricks and mortar to reinforce the foundation and ensure the wall's stability and longevity.
