Lintel Replacement

Coastal Wall Ties provide an expert lintel replacement service throughout Sussex and Hampshire.

What are lintels

Lintels are installed to support the weight of the brickwork above openings on windows and doors. They are generally made from steel or concrete, but can also be made from wood, brick or stone. They may be installed on the external wall only, or as one complete lintel that sits on both the external and internal walls.

Why do lintels fail

A lintel will rust, expand or rot over time, causing cracking which in turn reduces support to the brickwork above it.

Some properties don’t have lintels above the windows or doors due to the installation of metal framed windows and/or doors (during the original build) that acted as a lintel. Over the course of a property’s history, owners may have replaced these windows or doors for modern UPVC units, often with no advice from the window fitters that a lintel is needed. In time this lack of support creates sagging of the brickwork, putting pressure on the door or window frame itself.

At some stage in your property’s life it may be necessary for lintel replacement above your windows and doors to ensure that the brickwork remains fully supported.

We had some wall ties replaced by Coastal Wall Ties and the work was excellent. The wall also needed repointing so it was a great way to combine both jobs and we are very pleased we chose CWT. Alex's advice was spot-on and the work was completed to a very high standard, and quickly. We spoke with a number of companies before going ahead with this work and are glad we chose this firm. Would highly recommend.

Alex did an excellent job on our leaky lintel. When it became clear that his original proposed fix was not possible as the original lintel type is no longer made, he quickly suggested an equally effective (and cheaper!) alternative solution. Very happy to recommend him.

Alex was fantastic, the work he completed for us was excellent - replacing our wall ties, repairing a lintel and a number of cracks in the mortar. He was professional, took the time to explain the work he was doing and cleaned up thoroughly after himself every day. He offered advice, on other areas of required work, which was much appreciated and was polite and considerate. Would highly recommend him and Coastal Wall Ties.

We had used another company to remove paint from our brickwork at the front of the house and were left disappointed that a lot of stubborn paint was left behind making the front of our house look scruffy. Alex was able to remove almost all these marks and has left our brickwork looking much cleaner, thanks so much!

Excellent service, very professional and went over and above to finish the job, gave me a quote which I thought was fair but when it came to do the work realised not all bricks needed work, so reduced the price, not all trades people are that honest! I would definitely use again if needed and have no hesitation in recommending Coastal Wall Ties. If you need repointing or wall ties then Coastal Wall Ties should be your first port of call.
