Arch Repairs at Tewantin, Queensland.

The Problem: The arch had cracked due to subsidence in the area caused by trees too close to the house.

The Solution: First we braced the arch to keep it in place. We then installed our Rapid Set GoBar system which fully cures within 30 minutes. We then repointed using colour match mortar to match existing. We were able to take the prop away the same day using this method.

Underpinning at Sunnybank Hills, Queensland.

The Problem: The concrete foundation for the brick fence was less than 300mm deep causing the brick fence to subside. There is a power box near by so the builder chose not to go the full depth with the foundation.

The Solution: First we located the power so we knew where to avoid, it went straight under the pillar near the power box. Next we used lateral force to push the fence back to its original position. We then dug 600mm down and underneath the concrete foundation, we managed to get pretty close to the pillar with no disturbance. We then added reinforcing steel boxes for strength and filled the holes with concrete.

Pillar Repairs at Sinnamon Park, Queensland.

The Problem: The affected pillar had been hit by a car and unfortunately was too far gone for us to repair.

The Solution: We dismantled the pillar by removing each brick and individually cleaning. The cracked bricks were replaced with ones that match the existing. We went down to the concrete foundation which was still in excellent condition. Once the area was prepared we laid the bricks to match the existing and finished with a pier cap on top. The finish is a bagged rendered look hence the messy repointing. Once painted the pillar will blend in perfectly with the existing brickwork.

The Problem: We believe the mortar between the bricks had broken down due excessive water flowing into the affected area. This is most likely caused by poor drainage and water rising up through the brickwork.

The Solution: We removed all the loose bricks and cleaned them up. We also cleaned up the affected area before relaying the same bricks with colour matched mortar to match existing.b

Pillar Rebuild at Greenslopes, Queensland.

The Problem: The customer knocked over the 100+ year old pillar with their car.

The Solution: We removed the original brick footing then dug a 550mm - 600mm deep hole for a the new concrete footing. We made up a reinforcement cage then poured the concrete and let it set. We managed to find the closest possible bricks to match existing, with it being over 100+ years old this is no easy task. Next we laid the bricks with rebar going up through the concrete footing and all the way up the brick pillar. This pillar will now last another 100+ years!
