Structural reformations are all different. At M3BT we work closely with qualified Surveyors, Architects and Technical Architects to provide the solution as cost effectively as possible. Often we are working with and insurance company so repairs have to be guaranteed and to a very high quality.
This property in Alcoy had serious movement and cracking issues because of poor foundations laid in clay soil. Heave and Subsidence from wet and dry spells makes it impossible to repair the property without stabilizing the terrain. In this instance the house could not cost effectively be piled so the alternative was to control the terrain with drainage. French Drainage was fitted around the house and all the internal floors were dug out. We then fitted specialist anti heave products and refloated the floors with reinforced concrete. The walls internally were treated with flexible mortar and the outside with a weatherproof flexible mortar with a fiberglass mesh.
