Helifix Solutions: Innovative Repair and Reinforcement for Structures
At VG Builders Ltd., we specialize in providing advanced Helifix solutions to address a wide range of structural problems in residential, commercial, and historic buildings. As Helifix approved installers and designers, we have a dedicated in-house team of experts who are trained to assess, design, and implement tailored solutions. Helifix systems offer efficient, non-invasive, and cost-effective methods to repair and reinforce structures, ensuring long-term stability and durability.
Our skilled team works meticulously to minimize disruption while delivering exceptional results, giving you peace of mind that your project is in safe and capable hands.
Below depicts common problems that we are able to assist with.



Cracks in Masonry or Brickwork
Cracks in walls are a common issue caused by various factors, including structural movement, ground settlement, thermal expansion and contraction, or exposure to harsh environmental conditions. Over time, these cracks can worsen, compromising the structural integrity of a building and leading to water ingress, energy inefficiency, and potential safety risks.
At VG Builders Ltd., we utilize advanced Helifix Crack Stitching Systems to effectively stabilize and repair cracked masonry. The process involves embedding high-strength stainless steel helical bars into mortar joints or within the masonry itself. These bars work to reconnect and reinforce the cracked area while allowing for slight, natural movement without causing further damage.
Key Benefits of Helifix Crack Stitching:
-
Non-Invasive Solution: Minimal disruption to the structure during installation, preserving the building's original appearance.
-
Restores Structural Integrity: Stabilizes walls by redistributing loads and preventing cracks from worsening.
-
Durable and Long-Lasting: Made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, ensuring long-term reliability.
-
Versatile Application: Suitable for brick, stone, block, and other types of masonry across residential, commercial, and historic buildings.
-
Cost-Effective Repair: Provides a fast, efficient, and cost-effective alternative to extensive rebuilding.
Whether you're dealing with small hairline cracks or significant structural fractures, our Helifix-approved installers will assess the extent of the problem and design a tailored solution to ensure your walls are secure, stable, and protected for the future.








Wall Tie Replacement and Reinforcement
Wall tie failure is a common structural issue that can compromise the stability and safety of cavity walls. Over time, wall ties may corrode, weaken, or even be absent in older buildings, leading to bulging, cracking, or separation of the inner and outer wall leaves. If left unaddressed, these problems can escalate, posing risks to both the structure and its occupants.
At VG Builders Ltd., we offer Helifix Helical Wall Tie Solutions to effectively replace or supplement failing wall ties. These high-performance stainless steel helical ties are installed using advanced techniques to secure the two leaves of the cavity wall, restoring strength and stability without requiring extensive rebuilding.
Key Benefits of Helifix Helical Wall Ties:
-
Non-Disruptive Installation: Installed with minimal impact to the building, avoiding the need for large-scale demolition or reconstruction.
-
Superior Corrosion Resistance: Made from high-grade stainless steel to withstand environmental conditions and ensure longevity.
-
Adaptable to Various Structures: Suitable for brick, block, stone, and other cavity wall constructions in residential, commercial, and historic buildings.
-
High Strength and Flexibility: Designed to allow for minor movement without compromising the structural bond, accommodating thermal and structural shifts.
-
Cost-Effective and Efficient: Provides a durable solution to wall tie failure, saving time and money compared to traditional repairs.
Our team of Helifix-approved installers and designers will assess the condition of your walls and determine the most appropriate wall tie solution for your property. Whether addressing localized problems or widespread tie failure, we deliver targeted, effective reinforcement to ensure your walls remain secure and resilient for years to come.
