What is a Lintel and Why is Replacement Necessary?
A lintel is a critical structural component located above doors, windows, or other openings. It supports the weight of the masonry or structure above the opening, ensuring safety and stability. Over time, lintels can corrode, crack, or fail, leading to issues such as masonry cracks, sagging, and water intrusion. Replacing a damaged lintel promptly is essential to prevent further structural problems and costly repairs.
