What are Heli Bars?

Heli bars are stainless steel reinforcement bars installed horizontally within brick joints to strengthen walls and prevent further cracking or movement. They provide a cost-effective, minimally invasive solution for stabilising your property without the need for full reconstruction.

By distributing structural loads evenly across the wall, heli bars help prevent further damage caused by subsidence, frost, or natural settling.

Our Heli Bar Installation Process

Precision & Safety First

We carefully remove mortar along the affected brick joints using dust-free mortar raking systems, ensuring minimal disruption to the surrounding brickwork. The stainless steel heli bars are then inserted into the joints and bonded with high-strength mortar to provide immediate reinforcement.

Long-Lasting Results

Once installed, heli bars are virtually invisible, preserve the appearance of your walls, and offer durable structural support. This method is ideal for retaining the integrity of period homes, listed buildings, or domestic properties where minimal intervention is required.

Signs You Might Need Structural Reinforcement

Look out for these common indicators that small structural repairs or heli bars may be required:
Vertical or horizontal cracks in brickwork
Bowing or leaning walls
Cracked or loose mortar joints
Minor subsidence visible around doors or windows
Our team will carry out a professional inspection, advise on the best solution, and recommend heli bar installation or other minor repairs as needed.
