Could A Cavity Wall Tie Survey Identify The Need For Underpinning?: Transcript


For UK homes with cavity walls cavity wall ties are used at the point of construction to secure both leaves of the wall together and help the structure maintain stability Although they were first used in the early 1900s throughout the 20s 30s and 40s cavity walls were increasingly being used in home construction and by the 1970s cavity walls were virtually standard within the industry.

Cavity walls have been a prominent feature of UK homes for more than a century now, and are basically comprised of a pair of thin walls, that have an inner and outer leaf separated by a space. Wires made of steel, and otherwise known as remedial wall ties or cavity wall ties, connect the walls together and enable them to work in unison, as one wall. When professionally constructed with adequate wall ties, there’s no reason why a cavity wall can’t be as solid and secure as a regular, solid wall. Tying together the inner and outer leaves of a cavity wall, cavity brick ties are inserted into a cavity wall at the time of construction, with their ends firmly embedded in the mortar at evenly spaced out intervals. Designed to stretch across the cavity and tie the stable interior leaf to the exterior leaf, the purpose of wall ties is to give stability to a structure, prevent water being transferred in from the outside, and be able to cope with small movements resulting from temperature fluctuations. If you own property, you know how important it is to keep an eye on the condition and quality of your building. So, it makes sense that you should know exactly what’s going on with your walls and what it could mean if they fail. In this blog, we’ll go over what cavity wall ties are, what they do to your property, what they can mean if they fail, and the different ways you might see them fail in your building. Knowing whether your home needs a wall tie survey is impossible without first having a basic understanding of what wall ties are, and why they sometimes need to be inspected and replaced. For as long as they have been in use, cavity walls have presented a unique problem to builders, and while they are a vital addition to the design of modern households, in some instances, they can be weak. Damp-proofing a home and giving it the ability to be better insulated, cavity walls are useful, but problematic. But why? You could be forgiven for thinking that cavity wall insulation must be a sensible choice in terms of enabling your home to retain heat during the winter months and reduce the amount of energy you consume, particularly as the UK government have been actively backing it. However, this isn’t always the case, and some problems do exist with cavity wall insulation, no matter how professionally it has been installed.
