Wall tie replacement for Pontypridd properties
Pontypridd sits in Mid Glamorgan, about 12 miles north-east of Bridgend. We work across the CF37 district, including nearby Tonypandy, Rhondda and Aberdare.
Defects such as failed pointing, leaking gutters and bridged damp-proof courses are listed and priced separately for Pontypridd properties, so you can choose who fixes them. If your Pontypridd installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. Parts of Mid Glamorgan 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.
As for paperwork, if cavity wall insulation follows in Pontypridd, filling a cavity is notifiable work under the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales, usually self-certified through a competent person scheme.

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.
