Wall tie replacement for Ramsgate properties
We cover Ramsgate and the CT11 postcode district, including nearby Broadstairs, Margate and Deal. It is about 39 miles east of Maidstone.
Where a Ramsgate wall does need work, bricks are lifted and rebuilt in matching mortar, and the cavity is checked with a camera before it is closed up. If your Ramsgate installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. Much of Kent sits in the more sheltered driving-rain zones of the UK, which widens the choice of fill. Exposed elevations, coastal sites and high ground still get checked wall by wall.
As for paperwork, if cavity wall insulation follows in Ramsgate, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England

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.
