Do you need a solid and durable solution to guarantee the safety of your home or building? As specialists in structural reinforcements in Mallorca, we have incorporated the latest techniques and materials to ensure the stability of any building and prolong its useful life. We have more than 50 years of experience in the construction sector and our specialised team has mastered the different methods of reinforcement, both in new construction and in old buildings or houses.
We have helped hundreds of homeowners, communities and companies to protect their assets and comply with current regulations and we can help you solve any stability problems with your building.
We replace functionally deteriorated joists with metal beams, which are installed under the affected joists and absorb their loads to ensure the stability of the slab. The fit is very precise and does not require on-site welding.
It is a very strong and lightweight synthetic material used to reinforce and repair concrete, masonry or wooden structural elements.
It is ideal for beams and floors and, because it is so light, it does not add extra weight to the structure.
Finally, in our structural reinforcement interventions, we also use special, highly resistant concretes and mortars for localised repairs or specific reinforcements in pillars, beams and slab faces.
At Construcciones Armalutx we are known for combining the construction tradition of Mallorca with technical innovation when it comes to structural reinforcements. What advantages do you get when you trust us?
Integral service: We take care of the detection of the problem as well as the execution of the reinforcement, the processing of licences and the coordination of all the industrialists involved.
Although structural reinforcement is usually associated with the renovation of old buildings, it has a wide range of applications. Some of the scenarios where reinforcement is essential are:
Historic buildings and protected heritage: Mallorca has a valuable architectural legacy. In these buildings, reinforcements must be as non-invasive as possible and respect the original construction elements. Techniques such as carbon fibre or mechanoviga allow discreet interventions that extend the life of the construction without altering its appearance.
Housing and residential buildings: Occasionally, wooden joist floors or concrete beams are damaged by leaks or excessive loads. Applying solutions such as mechanoviga or repair mortars resolves these pathologies and guarantees the safety of residents.
Hotels, commercial premises and offices: In the tertiary sector, regulations require structures to meet very strict safety standards. Structural problems can lead to the temporary closure of a business, resulting in financial loss. Our reinforcement systems offer the advantage of being effective and, in many cases, allow business to continue while the work is being carried out.
Extensions and changes of use: If you are planning to renovate your home, install a lift or change the function of premises, it is likely that you will need to reinforce some elements to adapt them to the new regulations or to the increased loads that the structure will have to bear.
The duration of a structural reinforcement project in Mallorca can vary depending on the magnitude of the pathology affecting the structure and the reinforcement technique chosen.
For example, a punctual reinforcement of beams by means of mechanobeams can be carried out in a few weeks, while the rehabilitation of a complete structure could take several months. At Armalutx we can give you a realistic estimate of the timeframe after the diagnosis.
In many cases it will not be necessary to completely vacate the property, but in situations where your safety may be compromised, it may be advisable to relocate temporarily.
Our aim is to make the chosen solution as non-invasive as possible. Techniques such as carbon fibre or mechanoviga allow discreet interventions that, once completed, can be hidden or integrated with the rest of the construction.
In most cases, yes. Any intervention affecting the structure of a building usually requires municipal licences.
We can't give you a standard figure right now because the cost depends on the type of intervention needed, but we can give you a detailed quote as soon as we do the inspection.
Ideally, this should be done as soon as possible after detecting a pathology. If you detect cracks, fissures or any sign of weakness in walls, beams or floor slabs, you must act quickly to avoid damage and higher costs.
You are just one step away from rehabilitating your home with structural reinforcements in Mallorca.
