Wall Ties
Ledger boards carry weight. If your home has cavity brickwork, drilling anchors without neoprene spacers traps falling rainwater directly behind the timber frame, rotting walls. We preserve air gaps.
Service Pipes
Garden pipes run everywhere. When we fit deckings in Brent properties, we box around gas supply conduits and external water taps, creating removable hatch covers rather than boxing valves in permanently.
Air Brick Clearance
Subfloor vents need airflow. Covering lower wall vents suffocates household subfloors, driving damp rot directly into internal ground-floor carpets and timber floor joists within one harsh winter. We build step-downs.
