Specialist Window Lintel Replacement Services
Most people don’t think about a lintel until they spot a crack above a window and start wondering what has caused it. Sometimes the crack has been there for years and hasn’t changed. Other times it seems to appear out of nowhere and gradually gets worse.
We’ve seen properties where the brickwork had only moved slightly and others where it was obvious that the support above the opening had reached the end of its life. Every house tells a different story, which is why it’s important not to assume the same fix will work in every situation.
The first step is simply finding out what’s going on. Once the cause has been identified, it becomes much easier to decide whether a repair is possible or whether replacement is the better option.
Stronger Lintels. Safer Homes. Longer Lasting Protection.
