Bath is a beautiful city known for its historic buildings, but those same older properties can be prone to cracking over time. The natural Bath stone used in much of the local architecture is durable but still susceptible to wear, weather and movement. Cracks can be caused by changes in temperature, moisture levels, or even natural settling in the foundations. In some parts of Bath, underground watercourses and shifting ground can also play a role in structural movement.

For newer properties, issues like poor drainage, ground heave, or tree roots growing too close to the foundations can all contribute. Whatever the cause, it’s important to get cracks checked professionally rather than assuming they’re harmless. At ASRS, we use our knowledge of local conditions and materials to get to the root of the problem quickly. Once we understand what’s behind the crack, we can recommend a suitable repair that prevents further damage.

At ASRS, we follow a straightforward but thorough process when dealing with crack repairs. First, we’ll carry out a full inspection to assess the type, size and location of the crack. We’ll also take time to understand the building’s history, surrounding environment and any recent changes that could have contributed to the problem. Once we’ve identified the cause, we’ll explain the repair options clearly and suggest the most appropriate method.

Depending on the situation, we might use resin injection to fill and seal the crack, install crack stitching bars for added structural strength, or carry out repointing with suitable mortar. For internal cracks, we’ll make sure repairs blend in smoothly with the surrounding plaster or decoration. Our repairs are designed to be long-lasting, not just a quick cosmetic fix. We always use materials that are compatible with the building and appropriate for Bath’s architectural style. Throughout the job, we’ll keep you updated and work with minimal disruption.
