Structural Repairs in Birmingham

Commercial and Residential Structural Repairs in Birmingham

Buildings in Birmingham may be in need of structural repair due to a variety of issues, and subsidence is a common problem. Subsidence can lead to structural damage, and it is important that any damage is fixed quickly to avoid further problems.

There are several reasons why buildings may suffer from structural damage caused by subsidence. Environmental factors such as rain impacting the foundational soil may lead to subsidence. Many historic buildings in Birmingham will have foundations that have become weakened through years of wear and tear caused by natural and man-made factors.

Properties in busy areas of Birmingham may also need structural repair. Vibrations from traffic and heavy machinery often put stress on the foundations of buildings, causing movement in the soils beneath and ultimately causing subsidence.

For business and property owners in Birmingham who need structural repairs, We provide the best solution. Resin Injection Technology has a team of expert engineers who are dedicated to providing the most effective structural repair work.

Cracked Wall Repairs Birmingham

Resin Injection Technology specialises in solutions for cracked walls for customers in Birmingham. The experienced team are on hand to provide repairs and preventative work on a variety of projects. All work completed to the highest standard with minimal disruption.

One of the first signs of significant structural damage caused by subsidence is cracked walls. Although in some cases, the appearance of cracked walls might not be significant, it often the case that immediate attention is needed. It may be the case that the foundations of the property are sinking or are damaged. If this is the case, fast action is needed to prevent further damage.

Large cracked walls are usually a sign that the foundations of the building have weakened. These cracks may begin to form around windows, doorways or corners of the building. Thinner, hairline cracks are usually a sign of less significant issues that may need so be patched and repainted.

Why are larger cracks appearing?

This is usually a sign of weakened foundations, this has then lead to the building sinking into the ground. This is known as subsidence and it may be caused by issues with the soil underneath the building becoming too wet or too dry. Properties in busy areas of Birmingham are often affected by environmental factors. High traffic areas in Birmingham can lead to ground vibrations that may impact the foundations of a property and lead to movement.

Keep a close eye on cracks that appear, if they become larger then it is a sign that action needs to be taken to avoid significant damage.

Solutions for cracked walls Birmingham

At Resin Injection Technology , we provide solutions for both domestic and commercial properties with cracked walls. Regardless of the size of the project, our team of experts are on hand to provide effective and long lasting support to customers nationwide.

Experts at Resin Injection Technology will carry out an initial inspection of the property to identify the cause of the cracked walls. Once a plan has been drawn up, work will begin immediately.

If the cracked walls are caused by problems with the foundations, it is usually the case that the property will need to be re-levelled. At Resin Injection Technology , we employ modern and effective approaches to re-levelling. This approach is superior to traditional concrete underpinning methods, and is far less invasive.

Once re-levelling work has been carried out, large cracks will close as the property is raised, leaving only hairline cracks that are then patched and painted.

Treatment for cracked walls

The treatment for cracked walls that is caused by subsidence involves the re-levelling and strengthening the ground under the building. As the foundations are re-levelled the cracked walls will close up and the remaining cracks can be easily repaired.

Usually this process, known as underpinning involves excavation of the foundations to allow for pouring of concrete. This process can be extremely costly and time consuming, with projects often taking weeks and months to complete.

At Resin Injection Technology we do use a modern approach to underpinning which does not involve any excavation of the site, instead our resin injection method is far more efficient and less costly. Without the need for excavation, the time taken to repair the foundations is a fraction of what it would be with traditional underpinning, and there is no need for customers to vacate the building as work is completed.

Causes of Sinking Floors

There are several causes of sinking floors, it is often the case however, that subsidence caused by water interference is the main cause.

Water interference may come from several factors both natural and man-made, these may include:

• Flooding
• Damages drains and burst pipes
• Extensive rainfall
• Removal of resources such as gases, liquids or minerals from the ground
• Tree roots absorbing the water from soils
• Vibrations from traffic and heavy machinery

Solutions to Sinking Floors in Birmingham

Sinking floors can happen at any property and although there are several causes, it is usually the case that it is being caused by subsidence.

Resin injection solutions by Resin Injection Technology can repair the cause of sinking floors and in most cases, lift the floor to its original place.

In most cases, sinking floors are caused by the concrete slab set within a buildings structural walls. The team at Resin Injection Technology can fix this issue in one day; by using resin injection through drilled holes in the affected area, the expanding resin will lift concrete floors back into place.

The process of resin injection is non-invasive as it does not require the use of excavation. Resin injection with Resin Injection Technology is a far superior alternative to traditional underpinning and it can be completed in as little as one day, without the need for homeowners to vacate the property.
