Barker Goodwin provide timber resin repairs of structural timbers with minimum disturbance to the surrounding building structure. Services incorporate timber treatments of retained timber to prevent decay and to eliminate the wasteful destruction of sound materials.
Traditional “scrap and replace” practices are being increasingly phased out as the benefits of resin repairs become apparent and more widely accepted as they offer.
Low disturbance and disruption to others
One of the key benefits of employing Timber-Resin Repairs is that it avoids the unnecessary removal of entire timbers, floors, ceilings, etc. Only areas requiring attention need to be exposed as necessary to undertake localised repairs. For example, where new sections of stress graded, pre-treated timber can be resin spliced to the existing parent timber using steel reinforcing bars.
Avoid Needless damage to the environment
Repair units can be cast by pouring epoxy resin into pre-formed shutters and existing beams can be upgraded by inserting reinforcing.
Avoid unnecessary destruction of solid structures
In cases of refurbishment or more importantly renovation, the need to retain as much of the original building fabric is of upmost importance. Timber resin repairs allow for the retention of as much of the old timber as is structurally safe in the circumstances.
In general Barker Goodwin will provide the design service free of charge and based on their practical experience.
Structural Calculations
The design service does not constitute a structural calculation to the extent required by architects, engineers and building control. Should the need for formal structural calculations be required these can be prepared by a qualified structural engineer for a nominal fee.
