Wall tie replacement across Worcestershire
We cover 8 towns in Worcestershire, including Worcester, Redditch, Kidderminster, Great Malvern, Bromsgrove and more.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Worcestershire 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.
Damp in an insulated Worcestershire home is not always the insulation's fault, so the diagnosis comes before any extraction. If your Worcestershire installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work.
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
