No Lintels above the windows, any advice

[Andy Holland]

Good afternoon all,

I have been looking at a potential rental and on further inspection of the property there are no lintels above the windows in the home.  This has resulted in a few cracks in the brickwork above them, the home is about 30 years old, how expensive is this issue to resolve, there are about 7 double windows and 3 single windows.  It is a single story ranch home.  

I know that it depends on contractors, but just wondering if anyone had dealt with this and would you do it again?

Thanks in advance

Andy
