Professional Wall Tie Survey Completed in Truro
Newseal Ltd recently completed a comprehensive cavity wall tie survey at a domestic property in Truro, Cornwall. Using specialist inspection equipment, including high-resolution cavity cameras, our experienced surveyors carefully assessed the condition and spacing of the existing wall ties within the property's external walls.
For many homeowners, the worry of wall tie failure or corroded wall ties can be daunting, potentially leading to cracked brickwork, bulging walls, or broader structural movement. For this specific project, our local Truro client requested a property structural survey element specifically targeting their cavity walls to ensure long-term peace of mind before proceeding with minor aesthetic masonry repairs.

Signs Your Property May Need a Wall Tie Survey
Unsure if your home's structural integrity is compromised? Keep an eye out for these common warning signs of wall tie failure:
-
Horizontal Cracking: Visible cracks running along mortar lines, usually higher up on external walls.
-
Bulging Brickwork: Outer brick walls that appear to bow or bulge outward away from the internal structure.
-
Lifting Roof Edges: As an external wall bows or moves outward, it can cause visible separation at the roofline or gables.
-
Internal Damp Issues: Sometimes wall tie damage can allow water to track across the cavity, presenting as localised internal damp-proofing.
If you notice any of these signs, booking a professional wall tie inspection in Cornwall early can prevent minor degradation from turning into expensive structural issues.
