Wall tie replacement for Rugby properties
If your property is in Rugby or the CV21 district or nearby Bedworth, Leamington Spa and Nuneaton, it is within our Warwickshire coverage. It is about 15 miles north-east of Warwick.
Damp in an insulated Rugby home is not always the insulation's fault, so the diagnosis comes before any extraction. Defects such as failed pointing, leaking gutters and bridged damp-proof courses are listed and priced separately for Rugby properties, so you can choose who fixes them.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Much of Warwickshire 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 Rugby, 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.
