Why Would You Need Door or Window Lintel Replacement ?

Lintels are essentially there to bridge a gap and provide support for any load that is above them. Lintels are commonly found above a doorway or above a window. To allow the opening below and safely have the brickwork above, it is necessary to properly fit a lintel.

The lintel installed could be a steel lintel or a concrete lintel. In older properties and before many of todays modern standards, it was very common to fit timber lintels which will still be in place today if we were to open a structure to expose them .

stone lintel repairTimber lintels posed a problem and where seen to be unsuitable due to a number of factors; They were a fire hazard, they were susceptible to rot, they would shrink and contract causing settlement and also not as strong as modern alternatives now available. Most lintels we replace are the older timber lintels but we still do replace or repair concrete and steel lintels as well, so call us today ! 

Perhaps the wrong lintel has been used to support the load above, or maybe there has been some corrosion or other damage caused to the lintel. Whatever the case, if it is in need of repair or replacement, then it has to be repaired to prevent any further structural damage occurring to the building.

What Is the Process In Repairing or Replacing the Lintel ?

Each job we handle with will have it’s own specification so we will reflect the work plan to what is required for the job in hand. However, where  a lintel replacement is concerned, this almost always involve propping the structure from above to ensure all the relevant loads are supported, allowing us to remove the failed lintel and to replace it with new.

After the lintel replacement has been achieved, the brickwork would be packed tight to prevent movement and should it involve the internal skin, then the necessary remedial plastering work would be carried out. When we come out to visit your property or premises, we will advise on the scope of works to be carried out. If we feel that more information or a structural calculation is required then we would advise that a structural engineer is needed. Either way we will let you know what you ought to do .

Our first priority is you the customer and to ensure that we are carrying out everything safely and as it should be. We have a dedicated team with many years of experience in all lintel repairs ,lintel replacement and lintel installations. We carry out all aspects of the job from the beginning to completion.
