Wall tie replacement across Norfolk
We cover 4 towns in Norfolk: Norwich, Great Yarmouth, King's Lynn and Thetford.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Much of Norfolk 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.
Defects such as failed pointing, leaking gutters and bridged damp-proof courses are listed and priced separately for Norfolk properties, so you can choose who fixes them. Damp in an insulated Norfolk home is not always the insulation's fault, so the diagnosis comes before any extraction.
Building Regulations in England
Filling an existing cavity wall is notifiable building work in England. Either a building notice goes to building control before the work, or the installer self-certifies it through a government-approved competent person scheme such as CIGA's CWISC scheme. The insulation used must also be suitable for the wall it goes into, which is why the survey checks construction, condition and exposure first.

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
- Tie inspection with metal detector and borescope
- Remedial stainless ties to a set pattern
- Isolation or removal of old ties where needed
- Making good
