Then you need to pick up the phone and give Insite (Southern) Ltd a call right away. With many years of remedial and building experience, we possess knowledge of the correct method of restoring compromised masonry – helibars. Southampton customers, if you’d like to request our expertise, call us today on 023 8063 7264.
Cracks, fractures, and distortion to masonry and walls are more common than many realise. As well as being a product of damage or sub-standard construction, they also result from gradual wear and tear which occurs with time. Ground and/ or thermal movement, weathering, and inadequate lateral restraint all play a part. As loads and stresses are incorrectly distributed, the effects start to show. Helibars, Southampton customers, are the key to solving any issues concerning cracked masonry.
At Insite (Southern) Ltd, we specialise in remedial services but are also adept at carrying out structural stabilisation too. As the two services are often connected, it makes sense that we’d be knowledgeable of both. Customers in Southampton, helibars are the go-to solution for cracked, fractured, or distorted masonry. However, they must only ever be installed by a professional team with the correct knowledge and skillsets.
The first question many people ask us is ‘what exactly are helibars?’ In Southampton and beyond, we provide services which make use of these bars to reinforce properties of all shapes and sizes. A helibar is a helical, stainless-steel reinforcing bar that possesses substantial tensile properties. Its primary function is to strengthen and stabilise masonry and can be used both in new builds and for remedial projects.
The lengths used vary from one application to the next. How they work is that they are cut to length and inserted to form masonry beams. These beams help to correctly re-distribute structural loads, and, in the process, correct issues caused by ground and/ or thermal movement. They can also be used to address situations where sub-standard construction and/ or materials are the cause of the problem. Shorter lengths can be used for crack stitching, and helibars can also help with reinstating failed lintels.
If the masonry is the problem, the solution are helibars, Southampton customers. To get started, just give us a call.
Our team will start out by completing a survey to determine the extent of the problem. Following on from this, we’ll consult with you to discuss the problem and the best solution moving forward. You’ll be quoted for the work with no obligation on your part to commit. If you’re happy to proceed, our team will set a time and date to carry out the work. Customers in Southampton, helibars are always installed by our highly trained and fully certified team.
The methods we employ will work across a wide range of building types and will provide complete protection against further cracking, fracturing, and distorting. Once in place, the helibars will re-distribute the loads sufficiently enough for the remaining masonry to accommodate natural building movement. So, you and your family will be able to sleep easy, knowing that your property is secure and safe once more.
