TERRACOTTA REPLACEMENT

Despite its many advantages, terracotta is suspect to several deterioration mechanisms, notably freeze thaw actions compromising the glaze, thermal cracking due to its brittle material, inappropriate cleaning and commonly, the corrosion and subsequent expansion of embedded fixings, used in the original construction with no understanding of potential future issues.

Our masons can record, analyse and rebuild terracotta clad facades including remedial works to the underlying steel frame if required.

  • Supply & Fit.
  • Structural Repairs.
  • In-situ Repairs.
  • Detail & Design.

BRICKWORK

Bricks are notably one of the oldest building materials in the UK, having been used for thousands of years and continue to be used as a popular construction material today. Despite its continued use bricks can suffer deterioration over time for a variety of reasons.
