Crack stitching is a method of repairing structural cracks in brickwork using stainless steel helical bars installed into mortar joints.
This strengthens the wall, redistributes loads, and prevents cracks from reopening.
Commonly used on houses across Norwich and Norfolk, it is a cost-effective alternative to rebuilding damaged brickwork. Suitable for step cracks, lintel cracks, and general movement in walls.
