Professional wall tie surveys, replacement, crack stitching and structural repairs to restore strength and stability to your property.
Restore Strength and Stability to Your Property
Wall ties connect the inner and outer leaves of a cavity wall. When they corrode, fail or were installed incorrectly, the masonry can become unstable. Warning signs may include regular horizontal cracking, bulging brickwork or movement around openings.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the signs of wall tie failure?
Possible signs include horizontal cracking along mortar joints, bulging brickwork, cracks around windows or doors and sections of masonry moving away from the building. Similar symptoms can have other causes, so a survey is important.
How are wall ties inspected?
The survey considers the pattern of cracking, the construction of the walls and the position and condition of existing ties. Appropriate inspection methods are selected for the individual property.
Can wall ties be replaced without rebuilding the wall?
In many cases, suitable replacement ties can be installed through the outer wall while failed ties are isolated where necessary. The recommended method depends on the construction and condition of the building.
Is wall tie replacement guaranteed?
Qualifying wall tie replacement and structural repair work is backed by PMBC’s written 20-year guarantee. The precise cover will be explained before work begins.
