When it comes to special
media like terracotta and faience, Quadriga has the technology and
skills to restore or repair using a variety of methods, either working
insitu or by supplying and fixing new material.
Any conservation project demands meticulous planning and research
and working with clays and plasters such as terracotta and faience
is no different.
The failure of terracotta and faience facades is frequently due
to iron or steel reinforcement behind the surface which has inadequate
protection from the weak mix clinker concrete surrounding it. Water
penetration through the joints and the resulting expansion and corrosion
will crack the terracotta or faience blocks and lead to still more
decay. Injection resins behind the face can fill the voids, strengthen
the mortar fill, re-bond the blocks and often save costly cutting
out and replacement.
We ensure that the work we do is primarily of high quality, professional
and cost effective. Contact us NOW on 0808 100 3777 to discuss how
