Older brick stock with rising damp pressure, mixed with newer balcony failures across the King Street strata towers. Period sandstone retaining walls add facade and crack-injection work to the mix.
The Supcon approach is the same anywhere in Sydney metro: find the source, scope it properly, fix it once. The suburb’s build wave and exposure profile change the diagnosis, not the standard.
Buildings move. Materials expand and contract. Concrete shrinks. Structures respond to environmental conditions and loading. Cracks can develop for many reasons.
The important question is not whether a crack exists. The important question is why it exists.
Assessment of crack patterns, movement, structural implications, moisture ingress and associated defects.
Identification of the cause before selecting a repair method.
Preparation of a detailed remediation strategy.
Epoxy Injection, Polyurethane Injection, Acrylic Resin Injection.
Long-term solutions designed to reduce deterioration and improve structural performance.
Send through the issue with photos. Thomas will walk the building in Newtown, investigate the source, and put a detailed scope of works together. Inner West coverage.
