In modern homes and buildings for various purposes, damage to load-bearing structures occurs after the first 3 years of operation. Although some damage is not worth worrying about, others may indicate subsidence or deformation of the foundation and, as a result, the walls. If you don’t fix the problematic cracks in the structures, deforming the foundation can quickly devalue your property and lead to a dangerous condition.
The best long-term solution for repairing large cracks is to raise the structures to their design position, and then strengthen the structures. That is, re-strengthen the load-bearing components of your house. This complex process is called “reinforcement” in one word, and often confuses owners, because it is a two-step process. As the structure aligns to the design marks, the cracks may close or shrink. Then the cracks are stitched together and, if desired, decorated. Windows and doors also tend to start working properly again.
First, consult a structural engineer (also known as a designer) to assess the cause of the crack and get recommendations for a solution, and then contact a Premium Technologies expert.
Cracks (vertical, horizontal, or inclined) can indicate weak points in the foundation or base of your property. There may also be obvious signs of problems when:
Problematic cracks usually start in the window and door openings or corners of a building. However, if you find small cracks with an opening of less than 1 mm and they (importantly) do not develop, then most likely these are cracks on the decorative layer, and are not worth immediate concern. Most likely, they can be easily earned without consequences for the entire building. In any case, it is important to consult a design engineer, or preferably a geotechnical engineer, to make sure that the underlying sources of problems are taken into account or excluded. Such problems develop non-linearly, that is, they are waiting for a critical moment for a sharp manifestation.
If you have reached this block, then you care about the future of your property. By applying for help from qualified specialists in time, you will significantly save your time and financial costs.
The first step to save an object that is subject to destruction is to examine the building by specialists. This will help you avoid making rash or ill-considered decisions about measures aimed at stopping this process.
Premium Technologies specialists will go to the site and determine the type of foundation deformation and find out its causes. Depending on the data obtained, they will perform the necessary calculations, determine which measures will help to stop the destruction of the building, and which method of strengthening the foundation will be optimal.
Almost instant results
Only top-end equipment and tools
Post-project monitoring and responsiveness when improvements are needed. Communication 24/7
Parallel improvement of hydro -, heat-and vibration insulation characteristics of structures
Performing work using Premium Technologies technology does not require moving out residents or stopping the operation of the house.
The materials we use are durable and resistant to aggressive environments. Premium Technologies has the ability to guarantee works for up to 60 years.
We use Premium Technologies geopolymer resin injection technology, which is similar to a "microsurgical operation" without excavation and excavation or clutter management.
Cracks in the walls are closed as the building structure rises. Windows and doors will work normally again if there were misalignments before.
The injected material is environmentally inert and does not have a harmful effect on the environment.
