Crack Repairs in Manchester – Professional, Local & Trusted
If you’ve noticed cracks appearing in your property’s walls, floors or ceilings, it’s important to get them professionally assessed. At ASRS Ltd, we specialise in crack repairs across Manchester, offering practical and long-lasting solutions for both cosmetic and structural issues. Whether you’re dealing with vertical cracks, stepped brickwork fractures, or internal plaster damage, we can identify the cause and carry out the right repair. Cracks often indicate movement or stress within a building, especially in older Manchester properties or those built on shrinkable clay soils. Our team is experienced in handling everything from minor settlement cracks to more serious structural damage, using trusted techniques that ensure the problem doesn’t return. From homes in Didsbury to commercial properties in the city centre, we provide local, expert crack repair services designed to restore the safety and appearance of your building.
Causes of Wall Cracking in Manchester Properties
Cracks in walls and brickwork can develop for many reasons, and understanding the underlying cause is essential before any repair is carried out. In Manchester, one of the most common causes is ground movement due to the city’s mixed soil conditions, including areas of shrinkable clay and made-up ground. These ground shifts often result in subsidence, which in turn leads to cracks forming in walls, particularly above windows and doors. Other common issues include thermal expansion, inadequate wall ties in older cavity walls, water ingress, and corroding steel elements such as lintels or reinforcements. We also see cracks caused by structural overloading, previous poor-quality repairs, or simply the ageing of materials over time. At ASRS Ltd, we carry out a detailed site inspection to determine exactly what’s behind the damage. This helps us apply the most appropriate and cost-effective crack repair method for your Manchester property, ensuring both safety and longevity.
Structural Crack Repair Solutions We Offer
At ASRS Ltd, we provide a full range of structural crack repair solutions tailored to the condition and construction of each building we work on. Our most common approach involves crack stitching using Helifix bars, a non-disruptive method that reinforces the wall by inserting stainless steel bars across the crack and bonding them in place with structural grout. This helps to redistribute loads and prevent further movement. For cavity walls showing signs of separation or bowing, we may also recommend wall tie replacement or lateral restraints to stabilise the structure. In more severe cases, particularly where movement is ongoing, underpinning or ground anchors may be required to address the issue at its source. We carry out crack repairs across all types of buildings in Manchester, including brick, block and stone masonry. Our team works efficiently and with care, ensuring the repair blends in with the original finish wherever possible, preserving the look and value of your property.
