Why our resin repairs make financial sense.
Structural Timber Beam Repair - A Smarter Alternative to Replacement
Save valuable timber, reduce building disruption and restore structural
strength with simple epoxy repair systems from Property Repair Systems.
Damaged, cracked or rotten timber beams do not always need to be replaced.
Our advanced structural epoxy resins, reinforcement bars and bespoke Timber-Resin
Splice Kits provide practical solutions for repairing structural beams,
joists, rafters, lintels and glulam timbers. Where suitable, decayed sections
can be removed and replaced with engineered resin-bonded repairs, retaining
sound original timber and potentially avoiding costly dismantling and
extensive building works.
We manufacture and supply specialist materials for both professional contractors
undertaking repairs and engineers developing repair specifications. Choose
from high-performance pouring resins, mouldable epoxy putties, injection
resins, primers and reinforcement bars, or explore our Timber-Resin Splice
Kits for more substantial repairs.
Need help with an unusual timber repair? Speak directly to our experienced
technical team for practical advice on selecting materials and developing
a suitable repair approach. Engineering calculation services are also
available.

How to choose a crack repair method and material
General principle - cut out the cracks with a saw, router, masonry grinder, or Allsaw (a superb slot cutting machine, available from Hire Shops), to form square edged slots, and remove all dust and debris. Avoid 'V' shaped slots - the repair will be much weaker.
Repair Thickness - the more material that we can put into the repair, in terms of width and depth, the better it will be able to accommodate natural movements caused by changing temperatures and therefore the better it will last.
Caution - Always consult a Structural Engineer and the building's Insurers before proceeding.
