Cracks in masonry are commonly caused by factors like ground movement, subsidence, heave, environmental conditions (such as freeze/thaw cycles), increased loads or stress, replacement of doors or windows, drain failures, and the addition or removal of large vegetation. ASRS Ltd are helifix crack repair specialists, expertly diagnosing the cause of these cracks and designing effective solutions.

As certified installers of Helifix Masonry Repair Systems, we provide Helifix insurance-backed guarantees for most projects. Additionally, we offer expert advice, free site visits, and tailored structural programs. When masonry has cracked or failed, the Helifix Helibeam System offers horizontal bed-joint reinforcement, eliminating the need for demolition and rebuilding. This system utilizes high-tensile stainless steel helical bars combined with cementitious, thixotropic grout to securely bond the bars to the masonry.

Bed joint reinforcement, also known as masonry beaming, ties the masonry together to form deep beams that help redistribute structural loads. Additional helical ties and fixings can be added as needed for crack stitching and to provide lateral and vertical restraint, completing the system. This approach is suitable for all masonry types, including brick, block, and stone structures. The Helibeam System provides a structurally sound, cost-effective alternative to underpinning and other traditional repair methods, with much less disruption and stress. It minimizes impact on the ground, building, and occupants, and after repointing and finishing, the building remains virtually unmarked.
