Timber Resin Repairs
MacLennan use a timber resin system for structural repairs on commercial, domestic and historic buildings across the UK.
Our timber resin repair system can be applied to strengthen timber beams, replace timber ends that have decayed, and join any timbers where traditional joinery or steel work is not possible.
A common installation is to upgrade the beams that have to be retained but need to support a greater load than they are able to.
MacLennan offer a full design and installation service, thought calculations can be provided for your engineer where required.
All work is carried out by fully qualified carpenters with experience in all aspects of timber repairs.
MacLennan guarantees timber resin installations for a period of 10 years.
Timber Resin comes in many forms but TRS (Timber Resin Splices) is the most commonly used, mainly due to the fact that they are available in several forms depending on the accessibility of the repair i.e. side slot, top slot, etc. The repairs are relatively non-destructive and in most situations there is either no alternative,or the alternative would be more costly and destructive. Another common repair method used by MacLennan is the bower beam. These metal repair plates come in several sizes to suit the timber being repaired and the amount of timber that has been affected by decay. Again, they are less destructive and more cost effective than the alternate in most situations.
