Cracks Above Windows, Failed Lintels & Structural Brickwork Repairs

Liverpool has thousands of traditional terraced houses, Victorian properties and larger family homes, many of which were constructed using building methods that differ considerably from those used today.

In older properties, timber lintels can deteriorate over time, while steel supports may eventually suffer from corrosion. When this happens, cracks can develop in the brickwork above windows, sometimes accompanied by movement around the frames.

At Lintel Repairs North West, our work focuses on identifying and repairing these structural problems. We undertake window lintel repairs, replacement of damaged supports, brickwork repairs and alterations to existing openings.

Before starting a job, we examine the affected area to establish what has caused the damage. This helps us determine whether the existing lintel can be repaired or whether replacement is necessary.

Our aim is to leave the surrounding brickwork secure, properly supported and neatly finished.
