Why Lintels Fail
Lintels can fail for a number of reasons , primarily we have found that most lintels in Chester fail because they where installed many years ago and are made of timber so they have aged so much that they can no longer do there job properly .
Many older homes have timber lintels because this was common to use at the time . We now know that timber lintels are an inefficient lintel and that concrete / steel lintels are much better to use because they last longer and are not susceptible to things such as termite invasions which weaken the timber lintel .
The Steps Needed For A Proper Lintel Repair
The first step in any proper lintel repair would be to structurally support the loads above the lintel . Doing this would ensure that the above loads will not fall and create structural problems . An example of a common structural problem that develops due to a lintel failing would be structural cracks forming above the lintel because they are no longer structurally supported from beneath.
We would support the loads above the lintel be temporarily installing structural supports called Strong Boys and further support this by placing propping devices called Acrows underneath these structural supports .
After this has been done the lintel can be taken out and new modern concrete or steel lintel can be installed . When this has been done we can then take out the temporary structural supports and propping devices and after one final clean up the job would be complete.
