Repairing Balustrade Wall Issues

Low-rise apartment blocks built in the 1930s to circa 1970s, conventionally constructed with solid brickwork and concrete floors, with open access decks and private balconies, are ones that most commonly suffer from balustrade wall issues.

The half-brick thick balustrade walls on walkways and private balconies suffer similar issues to those of any other external wall to your building – weathering and moisture ingress, hygrothermal movement and stress, coupled with the potential for embedded reinforcing bar and handrail balusters corrosion damage.

If your property’s balustrade walls are exhibiting signs of cracking, bowing or movement, then our experienced team of masonry specialists will be able to:

1. Promptly identify the issue at hand.
2. Recommend a solution from those available, or create one if an innovative approach is required.
3. Carry out the work in a swift and affordable manner, with the minimum of impact on the lives of those who live in and around the building.
4. Make good with materials of a similar style and colour to blend with your existing building.
