The illustration shows a typical two storey Victorian property of solid wall construction with a later cavity wall extension. Masonry repair strategies using Helifix products have proven to be fully effective in virtually every type of masonry structure from medieval churches to modern tower blocks, from bridges and tunnels to all forms of housing.
They provide secure, lasting connections in all forms of brick, blocks, concrete, stone and timber as well as traditional local building materials such as Devon Cob, Wytchert and Norfolk Clay Lump. |
Highlighted are some of the most commonly occurring structural faults that affect every type of commercial and residential property of all ages and construction. In conjunction with the Helibeam System other products are able to remedy specific problems.
These are installed externally in the vast majority of situations leaving buildings visibly unimpaired and causing negligible disruption to their occupants.
Clearly there are other situations which are not shown here such as failed parapet walls, separated cornices, blown render and many more besides.
Using various combinations of Helifix ties, fixings and reinforcing rods virtually any situation can be dealt with so do not hesitate to call us if you have a particular problem which is not covered here. |
