Hi all
I did not realise wall ties need to be in place on every course around doors. My extension consists of timber inner leaf, 50mm cavity and blockwork external. As a cheaper alternative to helical wall ties, I was considering drilling a hole in the masonry, squirting some kemfix in and inserting 150mm screws through into the the timber inner leaf. Would this be satisfactory?
Cheers
