Structural cracks need more than a cosmetic fill if they are connected to movement in the building. Cracks can occur around windows, doors, corners, extensions and changes in construction, and their pattern can help indicate what is happening.
We assess the crack and surrounding masonry before selecting an appropriate repair method. Where movement needs to be addressed first, we make that distinction clear so that the repair is not simply covering up a continuing problem.
The right repair depends on the masonry, crack type, movement and underlying cause. We aim for a repair that is appropriate to both the structure and the finished appearance.
We examine the location, direction, width and surrounding condition of structural cracking.
Where suitable, structural repair techniques can help restore continuity and strength to damaged masonry.
Damaged bricks and mortar can be repaired or replaced where appropriate to the existing construction.
Where cracking is associated with ongoing movement, the underlying structural issue should be considered before cosmetic restoration.
| Service | Estimated Cost | Average |
|---|---|---|
| Minor structural crack | £300–£800 | £550 |
| Moderate masonry repair | £800–£2,500 | £1,650 |
| Extensive structural crack repair | £2,500–£6,000+ | £4,250 |
Indicative figures only. Actual prices depend on crack severity, masonry type, access, repair technique and whether an underlying structural issue also needs attention.
We consider why the crack formed before treating the damaged masonry.
Repair materials and techniques should suit the existing construction rather than creating an incompatible patch.
Where practical, we aim to make repaired areas blend with the surrounding masonry.
If a crack is widening, stepped or accompanied by movement, get it assessed rather than simply filling it. [CTA:estimate]
Free — no obligations
We look at the crack itself and the surrounding structure to understand its pattern and severity.
We assess whether the cracking appears related to movement, settlement, local damage or another issue.
The repair method is selected according to the masonry and the behaviour of the crack.
The damaged area is repaired using an appropriate structural and masonry technique.
