Noticed a rusted steel bar above a window, door or garage opening? This is called a lintel, and its job is to support the brickwork above. Over time, lintels can rust, expand and fail, causing brickwork to crack, bulge or place pressure on windows and doors. We inspect failed lintels and provide replacement, rebuilding and remedial repair

Over time, lintels can rust, expand and fail, causing brickwork to crack, bulge or place pressure on windows and doors. We inspect failed lintels and provide replacement, rebuilding and remedial repair solutions to restore structural support and stabilise affected areas.
We carry out comprehensive on-site masonry inspections to identify issues such as rising damp, cracking brickwork, moisture intrusion, failed lintels, unstable masonry and general brick deterioration. Using specialised diagnostic equipment and industry knowledge, we assess the condition of the affected areas and determine the most likely cause of the problem.
We also provide detailed written assessments for homeowners, prospective home buyers, real estate agents, builders and property managers. Our reports outline our findings, identify likely causes and provide practical recommendations for repair, maintenance and ongoing management of masonry-related issues.
Rising damp occurs when moisture from the ground is drawn upward through porous building materials such as brick, mortar and stone by a process known as capillary action. Similar to how a sponge absorbs water, moisture travels through the masonry, often carrying salts that can cause damage to plaster, paint, mortar and other building materials over time.
Yes. Rising damp can often be treated using remedial damp-proof course systems designed to reduce further moisture movement through masonry. The most suitable treatment method will depend on the type and condition of the masonry, the extent of moisture damage present, and any contributing factors identified during the inspection. A thorough assessment is essential to determine the most appropriate repair solution for the property.
No. Not all wall cracks indicate structural damage. Some cracks are purely cosmetic and occur as buildings naturally age and materials expand and contract. However, other cracks may be caused by movement, moisture-related issues, foundation settlement or structural defects. A professional assessment can help determine the likely cause of the cracking and identify the most appropriate repair solution.
Yes. Depending on the cause, severity and condition of the masonry, cracked brickwork can often be successfully repaired using a range of remedial techniques. These may include crack stitching, anchoring systems, wall tie replacement, brick replacement and other repair methods designed to restore strength, stability and appearance to the affected area.
Yes. Poor subfloor ventilation can contribute to excess moisture build-up beneath a building, which may lead to musty odours, timber deterioration, mould growth and other moisture-related issues. Improving airflow through additional ventilation openings, passive vents or mechanical ventilation systems can help reduce subfloor moisture levels and promote a healthier, drier environment beneath the property.
