Wall tie replacement for Willenhall properties
Willenhall sits in the West Midlands, around 10 miles north-west of Birmingham. We work across the WV13 district, including nearby Wednesfield, Wolverhampton and Wednesbury.
Defects such as failed pointing, leaking gutters and bridged damp-proof courses are listed and priced separately for Willenhall properties, so you can choose who fixes them. Where a Willenhall 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. The West Midlands has a mix of moderate and more exposed sites. Hilltop, coastal and west-facing walls take the brunt of wind-driven rain, so the survey records exposure for each elevation before a material is chosen.
On compliance, if cavity wall insulation follows in Willenhall, 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.
