Wall tie replacement for Lisburn properties
Lisburn is among the towns we cover in County Antrim, alongside Belfast, Newtownabbey and Carrickfergus. It is roughly 7 miles south-west of Belfast.
Defects such as failed pointing, leaking gutters and bridged damp-proof courses are listed and priced separately for Lisburn properties, so you can choose who fixes them. We never cold-call in Lisburn or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Parts of County Antrim face some of the heaviest wind-driven rain in the UK, especially exposed coastal and upland sites. Here the survey is stricter: some walls suit only certain certified systems, and some should not be filled at all.
On the rules side, if cavity wall insulation follows in Lisburn, inserting cavity wall insulation needs a building control application to the council before work starts.

Signs of wall tie failure
Horizontal cracks in mortar joints at regular vertical intervals, bulging brickwork, or lifting of the roof verge. Older galvanised ties, especially in walls built before the 1980s, are the usual suspects.
