Crack Stitching

So, how does crack stitching work?

It's simple yet ingenious. High-quality stainless steel bars or helical rods are inserted into mortar joints or grooves cut into the masonry, spanning the length of the crack. These bars are then bonded securely using a specialised grout or resin, effectively stitching the cracked sections together. This process distributes stress along the length of the crack, preventing further damage and restoring the structural integrity of the wall.

But crack stitching isn't just a quick fix; it's a long-term solution that offers a multitude of benefits:

  • Strength and Stability:

    By reinforcing cracked masonry, crack stitching restores the structural strength of your building, ensuring it can withstand the test of time.

  • Cost-Effectiveness:

    Compared to traditional methods like rebuilding or underpinning, crack stitching is often a more economical option, saving you time and money on extensive repairs.

  • Minimal Disruption:

    Crack stitching can be carried out with minimal disruption to your daily activities. It's a non-intrusive solution that allows you to continue using your building as usual during the repair process.

  • Versatility:

    Whether you're dealing with hairline cracks or more severe structural damage, crack stitching can be tailored to suit your specific needs, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

  • Sustainability:

    By extending the lifespan of existing structures, crack stitching promotes sustainability by reducing the need for demolition and reconstruction.

Don't let cracks compromise the safety and stability of your building any longer.

Trust crack stitching to deliver durable, reliable, and cost-effective structural repairs that stand the test of time.
