Wall tie replacement for Loughborough properties
We cover Loughborough and the LE12 postcode district, including nearby Coalville, Leicester and Oadby. It is around 9 miles north of Leicester.
We never cold-call in Loughborough or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies. Where a Loughborough 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.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Much of Leicestershire 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.
On the rules side, if cavity wall insulation follows in Loughborough, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

Ties and cavity insulation
Ties should be checked before a cavity is filled. Fitting remedial ties does not normally stop a cavity being insulated later, and we can do both in one visit. Where cracking suggests movement, we recommend a structural engineer's view first.
What is included in Loughborough
