Poulton Remedial Services - Foundation Movement

This property in London was affected by a defective drain, which caused foundation movement to the bay and front corner. The drain was repaired and the helibeam system was installed by cutting slots in mortar joints using a wall chaser with dust extraction to 40mm deep around the bay returning along the flank elevation installing Helibond grout, followed by twin helibars and making good the pointing.

Helifix bow ties were used to tie the masonry to the floor structure See www.helifix.co.uk for more details. We have carried out many other repairs of this type sometimes using localised underpinning, spanning between with Helibeam. Sometimes the movement has stabilised and reinforcement is all that is deemed necessary.

This Church in Hastings was affected by structural movement causing the rear corner to pull away from the building. We successfully repaired this using the Helibeam system.

Helifix offer a full design and backup service with qualified structural engineers to deal with technical details and offer underwritten guarantees to approved installers.
